Coffee with Butterscotch: A Gamedev Comedy Podcast

[Ep419] Abstract Musings

This week, we talk about Crashlands 2 shenanigans, LA madness, and subject matter experts. The concept of expertise is transforming from a focus on specific details to higher-level abstractions. When you have a deep understanding of the conceptual underpinnings of something, you can leverage technology to figure out precise answers. But first, you need to know what questions to ask and how to ask them.
