I’m pretty sure this has been proven false. There are some other things to consider: Higher interest rates may make people consider smaller homes or different neighborhoods, and some markets will have people less deterred than others (like California). And usually when interest rates are higher it’s because the…

I’ve been looking for homes since the summer time. Locked in rates Election Day. It worked out really well for us, but only because we found the PERFECT HOME.

I have the same theory. Was sharing it with friends just the other day.

The Mini-NES Won’t Get Games Beyond The Ones That Were Announced

MMM, nothing like adding a few thousand extra calories :D

I mean, hey, you’d definitely get some really buttery rice krispies treats that way.

Anyone who knows anything about making rice krispies treats has been browning their butter and using small marshmallows for years.

If you look on the inside of the Undertale Mercy shirt from fangamer you’ll find a Toby Fox dog.

I have negotiated, to some degree or another, for every job I’ve taken. It has paid off for me in a big way. But I haven’t really been particularly aggressive with most of my jobs, I figured there was a line that I shouldn’t cross and I tried to be civil and accommodating to make sure I didn’t ultimately lose the job…

Some people have a second fridge/freezer in places where they can store bulk or not often needed stuff. Usually people will have it in places like a laundry room, a garage, stuff like that. Growing up my parents had one in their laundry room, and my wife’s family had one in their garage.

Not necessarily. If you know how things normally go at the company, you can negotiate a higher salary based on the amount of work that will be required. But you will likely have to fight for it a little.

It’s funny, because I worked in a studio where, as an hourly employee, I would be paid time and a half for overtime. But I wanted to move up and earn more and have more prestige, and once I hit salary the overtime pay was gone.

I think you have a good point, but I don’t think it’s ALWAYS the case that if you are missing deadlines you are in the wrong line of business. I’ve been in situations where the deadlines were simply not realistic. Or perhaps they seemed realistic and something unanticipated occurred that changed things significantly.

Haha, exactly. :)

There’s nothing keeping a developer from allowing you to use your keyboard and mouse to play a game while wearing a VR headset. The problem is that, shooters like Unreal Tournament, Quake, Doom, or even Call of Duty would likely give you major motion sickness if you played them this way.

Basically, if you still are trying to decide if you want to buy one, the answer is wait. Yes, someone needs to pioneer the space. But those people already pre-ordered.

Yeah, between the game sales and the licensing of the IP itself Microsoft is making a ton of money.

How do you figure? Just look at the numbers.

It can be really hard (at least for me) to leave a job you’ve gotten used to and where you’ve made good friends. But so far I have not regretted making a change in company.

So, I’d love to get some money into a high yield savings account, but what exactly constitutes a high-yield savings account? What should I be looking for? What kind of returns should I expect?
