Love little insights like this because you work your ass off wondering if your lack of success means a lack of talent and then someone really successful bravely speaks out to confirm, no, they are getting the biggest paychecks for the biggest projects but are in fact the dumbest bastards alive
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

Is there a discord for burned out and depressed game devs/tech artists/riggers looking for commiseration and or help/shoulders to lean on as we try to keep going on and learning or do we need to start one.

Really hate how much tool learning has become video based now, especially for Unreal.
The amount of things that you have to be good at to produce a good video: a good speaker, explainer/teacher, and good editing.
I'm old, but I miss just being able to read a well written article with screen grabs.

this is absolutely it. all the suffering and pain and they fold without a single concession? less than worthless, it means the shutdown will be hung around their necks
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

Altman has been quite clear about his strategy.
From the 2008 crash he learned that if you bind enough of the economy to your business you can do whatever you like; government will decide the rules no longer apply.
What he's selling is unaccountabilty.

I honestly don’t get the value of this company. They hoover up energy and water. Their product constantly gets things wrong and, in extreme cases, coaches people into suicide.
And it’s all built on what seems to be malicious and vast intellectual property theft.
What does OpenAI offer the world?

Payday loans are the extremely casual evil that have been holding billions of people down under the guise of help for decades now.
It’s simply taking people in a predicament and squeezing until they break. Should be illegal and throughout most of the world, is.

The Flex Loan, a new type of payday loan pioneered by Advance Financial in Tennessee, allows residents to borrow up to $4,000 at a 279.5% interest rate.
It has burdened low-income borrowers while generating huge profits for lenders.

Boy Mamdani's race is really a vivid reminder that anti-Islamic bigotry is 100% accepted in US public discourse. People don't even bother dog whistling, it's just right out in the open.
