I agree about most of these points, but I really don&#x27;t understand this one:<p>&gt; <i>Do a DirectX implementation (having DirectX on your resume helps a lot)</i><p>You post this as a reaction to someone doing a <i>Show HN</i> on a Linux-based OpenGL project. This is the equivalent of someone showing off their Python project and you respond by suggesting they redo it in Ruby because otherwise they might have trouble getting hired.
