This has been a good series so far. Looking forward to the final result.

Wow, this helped me sooooo much! I thought I was going to have to break out Blender to move the Origin! Thanks!!!🤘

How do you add pinball tables?

fake meat isnt healthy it's just not, most of the fake meats have seed oils,fillers,and just not as healthy as real meat so it's no point In going vegan to be more healthy (beans<steak)

Well said brother. The push I needed. Thank you!

What is the utilization rate of the employee making $7.35? Could be 50% and the actual hourly rate paid by the company per billable hour is double the base hourly rate of the employee.

It's impossible to own a business with these absurdly high taxes.

I know my company values my time at $80 an hour but only pays me $20, I also wouldn’t be able to make that $20 if they didn’t provide me with a van to make the delivery with and staff salesmen to sell the product I’m delivering and purchase inventory to let the salesmen sell for the need for me to make the delivery

Oh welcome to the automotive dealership. 😂

Really needed to hear this thank you. Been feeling a little lost in where I’m going and need to do a refocus on the basics.

Fantastic ! thank you

Mortal Kombat was made by the same developers and engineers at Williams, WMS Industries decided to split the brands around that same time. Pinball and Shuffles would be Williams or Bally, all video would be Midway. It was all the same company until the Midway IPO in 1996. And, even then, the companies still were kind of together physically.

A good game should have a balance between handcrafted and procedural elements

this video wouldnt be possible without all your productivity techniques

If for no other reason, the breaking of stigma so people will seek out help is the most important aspect of all this regardless of where one sits on this Mental Health Train. I have a hard time (sometimes) relating to friends who admit their Neurodivergence, but it's better for working through things than people who have similar problems and refuse to seek help (like other friends or parents). Thank you for being open about this, Chris.

I found a lot of value in this video, thanks Chris.

g*ming and it's consequences have been a disaster for the human race

Hahahahahahaha whats happening

This is the content I subscribe for.

Great vid, Chris! Ty!

I'm old enough that I played most of those when they were new and they were truly AMAZING!

Cool video that showcased a lot of stuff i’ve never seen or of heard of! The only thing i would say is at 10:05 you got the bat mechanism wrong for the official baseball. On this machine and i think all pitch and bat games it is a solenoid that swings the bat. The physical bat is attached to a switch and that’s it. Source: I own this game and a couple other pitch and bats.

he was a very good wrestler till he stopped eating meat

There… there…

Bro. Why are you so yoked up now? Good work.

Add some damn spaces nerd!

Excellent talk. One of my problems in learning programming is that I have fallen in love with "buying programming books", and then not going very far in them. Setting up a programming environment, but not making anything that great. Making skeleton classes and functions, but not really going any further with it.

It takes me 4:30 just to pick a new theme so that I can write Hello World all over again.

Just to comment on something you said at the tail end where you admit to journaling and using notebook.... I see it as you doing the same thing that Marcus Aurelius was doing when he wrote what would become Meditations. So while that introspective writing is applicable to only you now, perhaps that internal dialogue will re-emerge later on after you no longer walk the earth.

Thanks for sharing. I was vibing with what you were saying as I was working on small personal projects.

Me personally, I like to cut corners. Yes, I do know how to do scripting, it just feels refreshing to get a break. Yknow?

Hi Chris. I've known you for a while now and the first time I met you at GDC at a party I thought "wow this guy is intense and very clever". Anyway, autism is my special interest since my wife and youngest son got a diagnosis about 10 years ago. My other son very likely has autism as well but was better at masking so never got a diagnosis. Also my wife and youngest son likely have ADHD but don't have a formal diagnosis, but like, it's obvious! One thing I now do is help my wife organise her work/home life with Trello boards. Over the years I've helped several friends recognise they are autistic who have gone on to get a diagnosis. It's helpful to them because then they can learn more about themselves, re-evaluate their past, and also develop tried and tested healthy coping strategies for themselves. As for myself, I've never had a diagnosis but I often joke that if you are a computer programmer, that's 50% of the diagnosis right there! In the end I've come round to the realise that I am autistic (I just did the RAADS and got 136) but because I was able to run a business and don't have strong traits in the social interaction category, it took me a while to figure out. It should be noted that as an indie developer I've ended up structuring my whole life around working on my own in my own controlled environment :D Also, I probably don't have ADHD but do have some level of executive disfunction but I extensively use todo lists and routines/habits to combat that. It's interesting you mentioned your mother because often when I dig into autistic people's past with them and it's very clear that they have one or two autistic parents and grandparents because it's clearly a genetic thing. Realising this may also help people have more forgiveness for their parents if it was a difficult relationship. One final thing: Many of my friends are programmers and are autistic or likely autistics (also within the Aikido that I do, I think there are a lot of detail-oriented autistics). I also think that ND people attract each other romantically because they can talk to each other on a deep level and understand each other. Being able to speak truthfully and withouth masking to someone and have them appreciate that is pretty great. Anyway, good video, all the best!

Yes, no, missing an effective learning method and money

true

After decade, it still a mazing helped me! thank you!

hi

Very interesting, thanks. I suspect I could have ADHD and I found your productivity methods really helpful. I'd be really interested to hear more about the specific things you struggle with and how your solutions try to address those for you personally. It might be encouraging to see how you struggle it overcome despite that.

Bloodborne's chalise dungeons are a good example. All the cells are designed by hand, and the procedual generation mashes them together within certain limitations.

Amazing content keep it up chris!

This really resonated with me. Although I'm pretty sure I'm not neurodivergent, I have a lot of the same types of friendship groups you described. I'm really comfortable around ND folks, and it's helpful to have a better choice of categories than just 'very normal' and 'very different'.

Helpful! Thanks Chris!

Gosh dang it, and I was wondering, since I was initially diagnosed with AuDHD - "he tried so many different systems and ideas for doing stuff and productivity, he's kind of obsessed with it, and he also talks like a machine gun, but for some reason all his ideas as well as his personality as a whole resonate with me on so many levels... he's got to have ADHD or AuDHD as well, right?". And here we are :D

Chris Swoleon

Your videos are great bro!

Thanks! This help me much!!!
