  • Simple Programmer Podcast 189: What Technologies Do I Need To Develop A Game?

    What Technologies Do I Need To Develop A Game?

    A lot of developers dream about game development. This is a hot topic and a lot of programmers want to become software developers so that they can develop games and work in the game development industry.

    While I've talked about game development before, whether it was the career or pros and cons, I've never talked about what you REALLY need to start developing games.

    So, I've received this question from a reader asking me about what he needed to start developing games. He talks about how technology has changed so much over time and how complex it is right now to develop games. How can just one person develop an entire 3d game? Directx? CUDA? How the hell?

    I talk in this video why right now may be the best time to develop games and why these technologies don't matter so much anymore.

  • Simple Programmer Podcast 187: Spend Your Time The Right Way

    Spend Your Time The Right Way

    In life, we all struggle to get our goals accomplished. Most of us end in a vicious looping that doesn't seem to do us justice and does not take us anywhere.

    On the other hand, there are people that seem to be utterly productive and they seem to achieve whatever they want. They set goals for themselves, create a proper plan and stick to this plan no matter what.

    So, what is the secret of these people? How can they be so productive? Well, there are many reasons for that, but definitely one of them is:

    "They know how to spend their time the right way".

    Time is the most democratic asset in the world. We all have 24 hours in a day and you're free to spend it the way you want. So, understanding how you can spend your time the right way and making those smart choices can definitely separate you from the rest of the world.

  • Simple Programmer Podcast 186: I Live With 3 Lazy Friends... How To Escape It?

    I Live With 3 Lazy Friends... How To Escape It?

    So, as a regular viewer of this (awesome) channel, you've probably heard me talking about setpoints. And one of these setpoints are the people that surround you.

    As Jim Rohn once said, "You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.". I've talked a lot about raising your setpoints by changing your social circle and by changing your friends and changing your life...

    However... What if you're in a situation where it is almost impossible to do that? in today's video I've received a question from a reader telling me that he lives with three other guys that are completely LAZY! They spend all day playing video games and watching stupid videos (tough my videos are not stupid, thanks).

    So, how can he escape that situation and raise his setpoints? Watch this video and find out!

  • Simple Programmer Podcast 185: Can You Be A Programmer Without Learning Testing?

    Can You Be A Programmer Without Learning Testing?

    In today's video, I'll talk about being a programmer without learning testing. I received a question from a newbie programming telling that older programmers were saying things like "But how can you possibly say you're a programmer if you don't know nothing about testing?"

    So, can you really become a programmer if you don't know testing? For some of you that might not know, Software testing is an investigation conducted to provide stakeholders with information about the quality of the product or service under test. Software testing can also provide an objective, independent view of the software to allow the business to appreciate and understand the risks of software implementation.

    So, should ALL software developers learn Q&A and testing? is it really necessary for your formation?

  • Simple Programmer Podcast 184: How To Self-Publish A Book?

    How To Self-Publish A Book?

    A lot of people dream of writing a book. A few years ago, I would say that this was almost impossible. There were a lot of difficulties, you had to get a publishing company, they had to accept you, you had to have an audience for you to sell, etc. Too many things to think and to take care for just one person.

    Nowadays, things are much easier. There is a new modality called "self-publishing", in which you can publish your book without needing a publishing company to get everything done for you.

    However, this raises a lot of questions. "How can I self-publish a book?", "Where do I start looking for things?", "What will I need in order to self-publish my book?".

    Well, in this video I'll take you step-by-step in the process of self-publishing a book, showing that you can do that too.

    Watch this video to find out how to publish your own book.
