Read some of his leaked internal emails and you'll change your mind. He's just a stuffed suit like the rest of them.

I know the cards are worth a few cents each. Selling those is more trouble than it's worth.

I meant the inventory gift games being worth something.

Wait, these are worth something? I have so many of them rotting in my inventory.

Most people call that "Windows."

If only they supported Linux. Proton support out of the box is the biggest selling point for me.

60Hz has been the standard (at least in the US) since CRTs. I don't think I've ever seen a 30Hz display.

Benchmarks mean nothing.

You're free to suggest another method of comparing the two languages' performance. This is the best we're have, and Rust wins in every single benchmark shown there.

These aren’t the results of code written by an average programmer.

Citation needed.

I like Rust and all but we do need to admit it doesn’t magically solve all our problems.

I never said it did. I simply pointed out that it's demonstrably faster than Swift.

This is completely incorrect. Their contract states that you can't sell Steam keys for less elsewhere, which is entirely fair in my opinion. If your game is on multiple platforms or storefronts, you can sell it for whatever price you want there. The fact is that nobody does; they list it for the same everywhere and pocket the difference if someone buys on EGS.

If this was true, games would cost 18% less on EGS because they only take 12%. Shockingly enough, they cost the same.

If it's "barely a problem in practice" why did you bother to mention it like it's an active performance issue?
