So many times over the past year, I have thought that maybe humanity deserves to be wiped out by a pandemic. I have found myself wishing that the death toll was higher and that we would all just die. We are destroying the earth. We are horrible to one another. We should all die off and let nature restore the earth. Maybe a new species can do better next time. (Yes, I realize I am a monster when I have these thoughts, but this is my confession.)

Standard Chartered Bank - Analytics profile

The HR asked me about my expected CTC and told me that she will get back to me on that same day but haven't received a call or email since that. It has been almost a month.

Have mailed her, but no response!

Has this happened with anyone? Neither a yes, nor a no. Or not even a counter offer. Very weird experience.

In my mind, if you are a salesman you need to get a life. How about a real job for a change, pal? Selling other people’s products is slavery. I’d sell my body for chump change before I sell anyone’s product. Selling other people’s products is like selling your soul.

If you have an Oculus Quest you can play Facebook’s first foray into the metaverse now. They’re pretty fun toys and compared to other VR headsets aren’t too expensive ($300 @ Best Buy). Get one and expense it for work research into metaverse 😂

Hey Metafishies! I’m looking for a mentor for pivoting into AR / VR design. I’m a recent grad and Art Director in advertising but I have some translatable skills in UX that have netted me a good amount of student awards - I’m still so early into my career, but I see so much that I want to contribute to in this next advent of human interaction. If anyone has any connections or can chat about this I’d really appreciate it :)

Apple releasing a hybrid AR/VR headset will totally change the market dynamic, bringing it mainstream from the still-a-bit-nerdy niche it still occupies. Also, the Apple app developers will start reimagining their hits for the platform. Apparently the v1 will cost something like $3k but folks pay that for a macbook so…

I think this is going to be a pr disaster and a source of anti-metaverse memes https://www.adweek.com/commerce/miller-lite-super-bowl-ad-exclusively-metaverse/ Decentraland doesn’t seem to have many active users from my occasional visits, feels like second life with crypto and similar graphics. Driving a bunch of people there with console quality expectations to stand around and talk to 4chan randos to watch a commercial is going to go south. Decentraland is not the metaverse.

First consumer-targeted AR glasses are available at Verizon. Sound like they’re a bit of a flop on the app ecosystem side of things but still cool tech and way, way smaller than the Hololens and Magic Leap. Will take a while to get there. Get the impression that Apple’s v1 glasses will be VR with AR features (ie full occlusion) before releasing something like these

Adidas just teased their new NFT collaboration with Bored Ape Yacht Club on Twitter with a link to a landing page. Interesting that it doesn’t include a mention of their integration into Sandbox.Game (enter that URL into browser to visit, doesn’t render in Fishbowl for some reason) which is launching in Alpha today. Snoop, Smurfs, Walking Dead also have integrations into Sanbox.
