I downloaded it for Windows. It has a mp4 file inside the zip. I was able to watch it using VLC on Ubuntu. Despite being a 360° image all cramped on a square screen it was still pretty scary =P

I didn't know that post until now. I kind of like that explanation.

I'm stuck trying to finish a project as a vendor. The original team in charge of selling the project has put a guy as Project Manager that takes pride everytime he says: "As you know, I'm not a technical guy" just before explaining something completely wrong from the technical standpoint, or agreeing into something that can't be delivered as explained. I can't agree more on the quote that says "Please don’t put non-technical managers in charge of software developers." I just hope finishing this without a lose, and getting a better position for the following projects.

I had about $11,000 USD after working for 20 months at IBM, lasted for about year and a half. Best decision ever. =)
