I've known git for years but anything more than push, pull, clone, merge, commit, and add I didn't really touch. This webapp definitely helped expand my git knowledge

I am very sad to see Vidme go. I loved the honesty of this blog post, it really shows that they are aware of the independent video scene and why it is almost impossible to compete with the giants (YouTube, and now to my knowledge, instagram).

I always wanted them to succeed, but there was always something telling me that success would be unlikely. YouTube is Google's big loss leader; they seem to exist to keep Google's large internet presence and to keep people connected to the Google ecosystem. If Google can't make YouTube profitable, it seems highly unlikely that a startup would be able to.

It's interesting how Vimeo is still in the game during all of this. They exist because they have a foothold onto the creative/indie/premium video scene. I'm sure vidme was looking for a similar foothold; an niche audience that YouTube/instagram/vimeo had not captured.

I hope the best for their new project. Also kudos to them for advertising those they are not taking onto the new project.

hey Clifford, inspiring work and great article!

I have been working on a multiplayer game as of recently

move with arrow keys, attack with "A"

there's a ton to work on and I've been busy with other things, so sadly the game has taken the back seat. Hopefully I'll be able to put more time into it next month

what's their stack?

wow incredible! i hope they do the LM next!

one of the most essential pieces of software in my opinion:

flux: https://justgetflux.com/

and now that I've been running linux, redshift: http://jonls.dk/redshift/

I find it hard to use a computer without these now

other than style what else do you look for when you check out a code base?

are there any unsolved problems in classical mechanics?

what was your first sale like?

what were you big motivating milestones that kept you going? if anything caused you to almost give up, what was it and how did you overcome it?

wow, very interesting reads. Many of them make me inspired and frustrated at the same time. Inspired because of how cool the ideas are, frustrated because "why didn't I think of that?!"

she must have gotten that domain early on

I really like these, keep them coming!
