Re: Invoicing software

It's funny, I've been using and loving Freshbooks, but the prices do keep increasing—which had me considering Wave... but of course, the grass is always greener on the other side, isn't it.

It's all to be expected though; we used to live in a world where software ran on our computers. We now rent ...

Re: Develop in Brighton, UK this Summer

I'm always up for lifelong learning. While I've no interest in games at the moment, it's always helpful to hear how others break down scripts. There's a lot of commonalities, but always different/new nuggets to learn, too.

Re: Develop in Brighton, UK this Summer

Super cool, Deebs! The lessons you teach for games also apply to other genres, too, and it'll be a shame we can't see it unless we're there in person—riiiiiight? :)

Re: NPCs and AI

I don't game much, but it would be amazing to see a world where the NPCs can say whatever comes to their mind—all AI of course—while the voice actor whose voice was cloned gets fairly compensated for that. There are responsible uses of AI, but how we get there... some big huge game development shop ...

Re: Gmail's unified inbox setup

Re: Gmail's unified inbox setup

Well, my situation will never allow me to use a desktop app; I'm addicted to Google for different reasons. Mostly, it's that I use Streak CRM for Gmail, and, well... it runs on top of Gmail :lol:

Over the weekend, I migrated my mike@speakingofmike.com from my current setup over to Google Workspace ...
