Nah, even with all the layoffs - the industry is much bigger than it was just a decade ago. We just grew too fast during covid.
Unionization will help, but i doubt we see mass unionization and I don't think it is required. The CWA is doing good work but the uvw-cwa - seems a bit unhinged to me.

Happy New Year everyone. I’ve been pretty quiet the last six months, but I posted this message on LinkedIn late yesterday just to give everyone an update. I’ll put it here just to make sure it gets around

Got glasses for the first time now. Still gotta adjust (as well as readjust the lenses), but it's absolutely wild how different things look now.

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

The laptop I bought myself for Christmas arrived today, but instead of feeling excited at all I really just feel relieved that the process of trying to buy it is over.

It's insane that ram is now half the cost of new gaming hardware, quite literally preventing anyone without a net worth from getting into PC gaming. But don't worry, everyone's AI generated something or other is now even more dangerous.

My favorite part of ghost of tsushima is the part near the beginning where you have to initiate a standoff and the game freezes for so long that the music literally runs out.

One day I woke up and decided I wanted to do a stop motion animation. So I animated a simple run cycle, printed each frame and stuck them around my city ✨️
(Which btw, I felt super guilty about)
