@MTPHereToHelp A request to let cars go ahead and not block the road

[Mariam Dholkawala @mariamdh]

@MTPHereToHelp You need to enable passing of vehicles to South Mumbai.

@MTPHereToHelp Alerts should have been sent out earlier because you could have anticipated the crowd at Parel. I wasn't aware and now caught in traffic which is just not moving ahead. A waste of time, money and fuel!

Completion may be imperfect, but it provides feedback. Perfection on the other hand rarely arrives and therefore delays feedback.
Trying to perfect something that hasn’t been completed yet, is a trap.
Just a thought for today.

Look at the air in Mumbai this morning. What kind of poison are we breathing?

The VR visibility crisis is real. Cost, weight, comfort, and portability are some of the reasons holding it from going mainstream, which in turn is limiting investment. https://t.co/HiPH9SMli1

This hits hard for the 3k employees at Technicolor India. Why have job markets become so fragile?

Stats on women in games. @GETWIGI
22% game devs globally are women.
46% of gamers are women
4% of game companies are founded or lead by women
Pay gap - women get 20% less than their male counterparts.
I've been in the industry for long. Not sure how much has changed.

Saw a lovely movie, not many are talking about- Binny and Family is about three generations of an Indian family living in UK/India and their struggles with modern day living & gaps in undestanding each other. The maker has really understood this well to create it with perfection.

To learn anything new, having the right resources and a community of supportive people makes all the difference. Mentorship is key for staying on track & pushing you toward your goals. Most importantly, to surround yourself with those who believe in you!

Updates from the Unreal Fest should be of interest to any game dev using UE. Better terms for developers with the 'Launch Everywhere with Epic' program. Also the launch of UE 5.5 preview with a ton of new features and better rendering capability. https://t.co/RDmuuMBmpR

Wrapping up an incredible games fellowship with Epic Games. It’s been intense, but so rewarding. Gained new skills, learned a ton, and connected with an amazing community of game creators. Time for some well-earned sleep now.

Sharing my experience of the first week of the Unreal Fellowship - Games Program. It's super fun building 3D games with an engine like Unreal!

The book I've been reading.
The essence is to convey that good storytelling is fundamental to all our communications. And the stories of the industry leaders do keep you hooked.

How difficult is it to get a human face correct #MetaAI? #Llama3

[Tim Sweeney @TimSweeneyEpic]

We've announced our new strategy for bringing Epic's games to mobile stores: not only the soon-to-launch Epic Games Store for mobile, but also other independent mobile stores that give all developers a fair deal, including https://t.co/wX14FI47KZ.
