If you have some time to try some of the 27 immersive stories from #XR3 this weekend, then this thread 🧵👇should help you pick which of the 3 DLCs to dig into. There's *a lot* of really amazing work only available until June 20th. At least grab free copy of @MuseumOR to explore.

Me: Fail fast! Mistakes are development gold! Live and learn! “Get knocked down 7 times get up 8” Also me *making a negligible error* That’s it. My career is over. I’m an imposter!

@awoods @mulegirl I respectfully don’t share this perspective. We are comparing human judgement. The average drivers ability to select an optimal outcome in a collision is not going to be more reliable than the average programmers ability to test it

@megawitt @mulegirl more so than the software developers that don’t write tests well (sometimes not at all), and the car companies

My feed is full of tech pessimism today. Take a deep breath and repeat after me: computers are not replacing humans. Tech is a toolkit. Let’s stay real. Let’s be grateful. Let’s inspire each other to make it better and more ethical. Complaining is easy. Let’s work.

@mulegirl totally agree. also i dislike the idea of technology removing control from humans. technology is meant to help us, not replace us.

@mulegirl I completely disagree for so many reasons, the first being numbers of vehicle fatalities, the last being how short sighted it is to ignore the project of tech dev overall. The components being developed to make that work open the door for so much invention

@corybramall You know I love start ups and actually love that kind of ambiguity but can we please drop the professional sounding job descriptions and just be real??? Like: we are starting up. It’s going to be bumpy, we are going to ask for too much but we are stoked. Wanna play?
