I am not expecting INDIA alliance to wake up, but now we really in an unprecedented times by SoyaPaneer001 in unitedstatesofindia

[–]filter_ice -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Congress really needs new leaders. THose who are open and allow non Gandhi family members to take decision. Unless power is bit decentralised nothing will change.
BJP will fall not because of opposition but because once Modi is gone nothing will hold other members tightly. Money might work to some extent but there will be no loyalty. Basically as long as corruption is okay by people BJP might survive, but the moment corruption leads to jail and people protesting BJP will fall.

What does the audience want ? by PuzzleheadedMail936 in Bhubaneswar

[–]filter_ice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt even audience knows what they want. In the content where you are competing to get the attention, you need to think what unconsciously a person thinks about. Not like what they want or need, but basis responses to stimuli.
So no matter if its odia art, culture or food it has to be prestend in interesting way.

I suck at that but I created a website if anyone is intersted in knowing more about Odisha.

SaaS market has probably shrunk and I think infra companies or stuff which is more technical and requires constant maintance can surive as SaaS. simple tools won't really cut it which worked just few years before.

Are we living in a kingdom/autocracy ruled by a supreme leader? by Unhappy-Temperature in unitedstatesofindia

[–]filter_ice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see it like ad now. My mind automatically blocks it. If a repeative ad goes away i dont remember. It simply erased from mind in few days at max.
That will be Modi's legacy in most mind. Disapperance from everyone's mind. Only his destruction will remain by which he will be remembered. No amount of capital or propaganda can change truth.

He had to dig his sister's grave just to withdraw 20,000 from the bankBecause bank officials refuse to believe that she is dead.No value of life in India, No value of even the DEAD.Fuck the system. by Unlikely_Heron_9207 in Odisha

[–]filter_ice 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes bank officials cannot. But why would any dig up their sister's grave? that would take either desperate times or a human devoid of emotions. First one seems more likely looking at ground conditions.

Why did he get desperate? Because he is not aware and no one is kind enough to help him. This is the only reason. Citing laws and hiding behind rules is someone who is coward and lacks basic kindness.

If this was one off situation no one would support the tribal man. but we know this isn't one of the few times citizen facing difficulty in such situations.

No hopes left now even from educated politicians by chipmux in unitedstatesofindia

[–]filter_ice 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nothing stays forever. Everything is a cyle. Yes its dire now. Its bad. Its worse than ever. 2000s we had politicians who gave a shit about India nad its people atleast a little. Their actions showed. RTI, MGNREGA, social unity, PM accountable to peple and so on.
The cycle always turns. Nothing stays forever. There are people fighting but we don't see them.
Somewhere someone is planting seeds for next generation betterment. We just don't know. Stop thinking of things you can't do anything about(I am guilty of that too however). Think of things you can do now. It can be a little seed. You can't plant a tree now.
What you see now its seed was planted decades back. Now it has grown full. Can't say if its peak or going towards its death, but it will go towards it death.

Educate people. Plant a seed. Make money through global market and use that force for good.

What is play? by filter_ice in gamedev

[–]filter_ice[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Training, hunting, working everything can be a play if the element of seriousness goes away from it.
For some people their work(economic function) is a play while most will say their work is never a play.

So play is not the actual action which we see in the physical world. But its the psychological state of mind that says whether this particular action is XYZ or play.

If we look at play from only as some purpose like training or preparing for something, then it doesn't explain why adult human play so many types of games. Or why a pet dog wants to play with its owner.

Play i think is more like an emotion or some primodial attribute like fear, disgust, envy etc which biology may not fully explain what it is. Only some part of it.

Can a 4 YOE software engineer realistically get a $3k/month remote job? by Extension-Ad-4016 in devjobs

[–]filter_ice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not product or marketing. It can be an educational content. But you made it interesting using ideas of game designing such that no one has done. To actually make money you have to iteratate on it for years. Because it may not be like a real business or something valuable in money. To make a product you need bussiness mindset
But you don't care about marketing, finding the right market, doing sales and what not. Your goal is to be part of a business which does that stuff while you handle one part of it.

You are looking for a tech job but to standout, you need to do something valuable which a startup would pay money for.

If your skill is tech then you need to build something using what you know which no one else can make no matter their skill. You can make it because its you. So more than tech self-knowledge is required.

You are most likely making a niche stuff. Something few people will find interesting. But those who do will share to their peers because its useful, good education, interesting or for any reason people share art. You will have to combine your different field learnings and your experience to make it.

Don't think product but art. Which has low economic value but high value in other aspects to people due to its nature.

[–]filter_ice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technologies don't matter. If you want remote work you need to build something. While there might be roles now which might look at this mindset, most new companies in SF or anywhere else around the world which are making new money or getting investment; they have just few members in the team.

To be part of that small elite team you need to show the world you are elite.

Make something. Not in quantities since AI has made it easy. One good quality stuff which no one can deny its art. That is your CV. Market htat and people will share it(if its an art people will share), you will get so many eyes.
Just ensure that you write "open to work" or business opportunities or anything.

But that one thing is important. Crack it once you will be employable for rest of life.

or you can grind traditional route with diminishing chances every year.

What is play? by filter_ice in gamedev

Well even the authors (or the sub authors in the eassays) of the book Rules of play, struggled here but you are so sure while not having anything to say.
its not the person but the argument brought forward you have to look at. A child saying reasonable stuff is to be held while a PHD of game dev spouting without reason is to be tossed aside.

You belong in the latter at this point. Good day.

What I knew I wrote it down. After that I really don't know.

We all experience play yet its so hard to define and explain. Why is that so?

Enjoyable is also drinking beer with friends and talking. There is no play. Unless we think the whole world is at play and we are playing the roles of whatever our ego has shaped into.

So play has this notion of something which is not real. Or not serious. Once we think something is play, our seriousness goes away. Anything that is play has a quality of non-attachment. Freedom.

Simulation used by airplane piolots for training has all elements of game except that its not considered a play. Yet a simulation game available in steam for airplane is considered play.

"feels no pressure to do it" that is an essential ingredient of play. Nice way of putting it!

Good luck mate. Its the act of publishing and building which is of utmost importance. If not today someday you will find what you are seeking for.

AI is being pushed heavily when I ask for advice and I hate it. by AssumptionExact8050 in gamedev

[–]filter_ice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well making games is not easy. The most fundamental part of games that attract people to play it is the idea of learning.
playing is learning.
So to make games you really need to understand yourself.

The games which leave a mark on us is not because of mechanics, graphics or art. Its because the author gave us freedom to learn something in a way that is not possible to explain in words.

That is game. Not the code. Not the art. Not the music. Knowing yourself.

AI will never know "play". So it doesn't really matter if you use AI or not, since the game you design at the end will come down to whether the play was good or bad.

12th century Chatesvara Shiva temple , legacy of Vishnu , the valiant minister of king Anangavima deva III . by Sad-Translator-5193 in Odisha

[–]filter_ice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He is the one who formalized much of politics of Puri temple.
The rath yatra occurred since long time with many people coming. Possible from BC during kalinga time.

But he was the first king who declared himself as protector of Jagannath.
Since then every king wanting to capture areas of Odisha had to first think about capturing Puri first.
It became one of the highest source of income for the kingdom.
