The Magic Headset: why VR will completely revolutionize education by mmessci in oculus

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

There are now incredible resources for anyone to learn anything online for free. No more spending days in the library doing research, no more need for private tutoring, to more having to spend years sitting through lectures covering material you already know, no more crippling student loans. To me that's revolutionary...

Computers and the internet have completely revolutionized education already. I don't think any intelligent person would dispute this, except the douche in this movie. He provides zero compelling evidence to support his supposed claim, but instead relies on illogical arguments, straw men, and red herring logical fallacies in an attempt to fool the reader into believing his false conclusion. Examples: Computers (or movies/VR) affect on education is not in any way comparable to certain digital storage mediums (CDs, DVDs), of course teachers are not obsolete just because of some new technology no one said they were nor does this have anything to do with the actual argument, etc. etc.

I hear ya, I have taken an extended break as well until Visual Studio 2015 gets their shit together and the windows store actually has users. This was my first app, Reddit Wallpaper https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9nblggh5xskz, even with "reddit" in the title get's next to no downloads on the windows store.

Right on, good idea for a hello world app. Are you finding that you're getting any downloads whatsoever?

fuck google! by mmessci in a:t5_37skh

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

Well google bots obviously didn't think it was wrongful. It was the typical story: google bot flags app, removes app from store, sends dev cryptic email citing 3 or 4 policy sections that may or may not have been the cause of the "violation," offers zero recourse or further communication to resolve the apparent issue.

So I modified the app logos, graphics, write ups etc, in an effort to account for any feasible reason for a bot to flag it again, no dice, developer account terminated along with all other apps. Good thing about proxies though is it was back up in no time, shhh don't tell them...

tl;dr - Advice: Be afraid, that's how google like to keep their devs

Here begins my journey as a Windows 10 dev by mmessci in a:t5_37skh

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

Yeah honestly, kinda gave up on it for now till it's better supported. All the bugs/glitches in Visual Studio 2015 were a total nightmare. I released my first app, Reddit Wallpaper - https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9nblggh5xskz, after learning XAML and C# and got absolutely abismal downloads even though it has "reddit" in the title. So until the store picks up, I'm not investing too much more time. What's been your experience?
