  • Definitely seems like they want the layoff from my position in the industry.

    The tech megagiants are massively reallocating their budgets from “paying people for new product development” to datacenter build-outs, under the belief that AI will fundamentally restructure all knowledge work into property you can own and extract rent from.

    Unfortunately the industry is completely non union and a good chunk of employees are on H1B or TN visas where they will get deported if they get fired. That really puts a damper on wanting to rock the boat.

    Expect things to get less stable and shittier over time as this trend continues.
















  • I played this game for the first time last year. I expected it to be a shallow rage game but something about it hit just right as I was recovering from surgery and working through my temporary disability. I think it might be a masterpiece in teaching you how to play through level design - like Mario 1:1 on steroids.
