significantly worse than other cities like Atlanta Philly and Baltimore
Wait. Atlanta resident here. There are cities worse than us?
LinkedIn is feeling like abandonware.
The whiny bitches to whom you refer clearly do not appreciate your analysis.
It was “Stable”, but money losing. Now it’s unstable but money losing.
When was this? When did people who need to devote their life to a craft long enough to get good at not want, even need, to be paid for it? There have always been hobbyists, and maybe that’s all you want, but there has never been a time when musicians would not have preferred to be supported by their passion, rather than the job they had to do in order to keep eating.
So, because they don’t pay artists enough, you shouldn’t pay them at all?
I’ve got the karma to spare so I’ll be clear about it. I’m not going to say you have to pay for music. That’s between you and the people you want to keep making music for you. You can fly the black flag all you want, and it does make you something of a rebel, but it does not make you any kind of hero.

Begin rich makes one feel infallible. Thinking one’s self to be infallible leads to these kinds of decisions.
Yeah, I really don’t get why people would care much about branding. It’s everything leading up to that that’s starting to wear people out.
And yet, somehow, I feel like the lawyers who took this unwinnable case are going to come out okay.
FWIW, this is kinda happening right now, albeit in a sort of “innocent” garage project sort of way. There are mods for Skyrim that take the voice work created by skilled actors, and use it to generate convincing additional dialog that they never consented to nor got paid for. Laura Baily is already seeing herself being AI’d by her own fans.
And this is with homemade software. Wait until the good stuff comes out.
There are also the pre-order bonuses, like cool skins or early access. Caveat emptor on the actual value proposition.
Of course, he may not realize that this dries up one of the largest sources of the Unity developers the clients he does care about uses.
