Jira is ridiculously bad. I'm not sure if it was ever good (probably at the beginning?) but right now it's one of the most incomprehensible interfaces I've ever seen.
Impossible to navigate around. I just keep clicking on things until I get to a view I think it's the one I was looking for 🤷🏻♂️

It's not surprising that a government made of mostly incompetent people made so many unattainable promises, and ended up missing so many of its targets.

YES! this is what techbros who have let their creative selves wither call "procrastination" or "inefficiency" and try to technologise away, not understanding that it is the source of creativity and imagination and everything good
When I sit down to write I'm not consciously pulling from my notes, I'm drawing on the 6 months I spent reading biographies, watching hours of interviews, etc. There is a volume of research, of effort & time that is required to create something meaningful to draw from.

The year is 2035. There are three game studios left. Each one produces a game every 10 years, killing 250+ developers in the process. They all accidentally make the same game because they used genAI in preproduction. They sell 500 million units each, missing quarterly targets. Everyone is laid off.
