It’s a deep blog post.
#6 is the tough one for me because I haven’t lost and I’m not completely wiped out but damn I feel/felt the heat for the past few years.
#9 is something I use all the time when in a game design mood. Because you can do absolutely everything with your game and so many things can sound cool at first but suck after a month of building them, weeding out all the bad ideas first makes sense. Then you have an idea that whatever you do to it, still works. That’s the one.
#10 is Louis CK’s skit on how older people are smarter. It doesn’t mean they’re always right but they are worth listening and pondering. Which is hard because respect is often not mutual.
#7, I think about it so that I don’t go into a depression loop when I read stats like this and so much more awful reality.
#5 #3 and #4, design principles when producing audio and music.
#2, how I managed my computers through the years. I use Windows, never had any automatic backup and never lost anything so I guess it works. Just copy paste your stuff to another hard drive, those are cheap.
#1 and #8, my life.
