If you’re interested in the indie rpg crowd you may want to change how game selection works.

Kind’ve.

It usually takes around 5 years to become an employable programmer at 40 hours a week.

Most of the 20 somethings “starting from scratch”, either programmed at a young age or are so bad at it they can only contribute by working long hours.

Most 40 years aren’t going to spend 5 years in the darkness learning until they can make money.

I don’t think thats true.

There’s people who have endless time (teenaged trolls) and there’s people who have endless money (lonely middle aged techies)

The teenaged trolls (incels) provide the engagement, and the lonely middle aged techies (simps) provide the spending.

It needs to learn from the VFX industry that unionizing programmers making six figures is hard.

To me, Hanoi is the future of the startup world:

- surprisingly libertarian pro-buisness environment

- super low cost of living

- supportive of expats working for american incorperated companies

- easy visas

- wonderful culture

- great dating life

- safe if you don’t go looking for trouble

- instead of having to qualify for goverment benefits, the goverment controls prices for nessecities for everyone.

- rapidly improving political environment/infrastructure

- very little online censorship compared to China

- China adjacent but resists Chinese influence

Have you thought of being a startup ceo?
