“It has become clear to us that the increasing costs of maintaining a Canadian based workforce is beyond the scope of our current fiscal goals, It is with a heavy heart that we will be closing our Montreal office effective immediately. We thank all of our former employees for their service and wish them all a safe and lucrative departure from our team”
Funny how these devs think they have leverage here. They will be replaced by outsourced labour and the quality of product from them will plummet. Game devs thinking that unionizing is a good thing is beyond me. They must know that they are effectively replaceable pawns at these companies. It’s like if CSRs tried to unionize In north America. They would be replaced with ai and 3rd world labor faster than you can say manager.
The way it’s done at this current moment is in no way sustainable. Once we start seeing better dedicated hardware for doing ai on client side hardware and remove the need to use massive GPU farms. AI is cool but it’s like driving a tank to the grocery store. We need the Prius of ai.
I wish we had a government that functioned. This shot is 100% antitrust. How is it that this shit is let fly.
“Gotta use the sandbox”
I find when I’m lost in the endless ocean that is the modern world. The little things that you can feel excited for make a big difference. For example I’m a hot sauce fan and when I go to the groc shop and pick up a new Interesting looking hotsauce I get a lil feeling of excitement and anticipation. “Is it going to be good, will I like it, I can’t wait to try it”. Idk if that’s just my broke as brain coping with reality but it’s the little things you can make exciting.
This is me, I feel like calling is detrimental because I can’t fucking understand what people are saying on the phone, presumably they can’t understand me. Everything is initially misscomunicated and needs to be restated like 2-3 times. Email just makes more sense and if it’s a bunch of things that need to be communicated precisely. Also having things in written for like an email is always good because it can be later referenced incase things become some he said she said.
I do try to add any and all relevant information to a given subject. But I think you are right, where people do not read the emails most of the time and nearly skim over the key points. Someone in this comment section also mentioned emailing and calling. This seems like the best way, send detailed email and then call to clarify anything they did not get.
