I was in this position recently. It's pure hell. I moved teams internally. Now I'm happy. It feels like an abusive relationship, you don't realise how bad it was until you leave.

Good grief! I'm in the UK, I haven't come across this sort of thinking before but "working in IT" isn't high status I guess.

So no changes have been made apart from being in black and white? I tried watching it a few months ago. It was awful (imo), I turned it off half way through.

This looks great. Thanks

How on earth can someone be offended by their son in laws good salary!?

Just got a new Samsung sound bar. Can anyone explain why when I connect via Bluetooth (or maybe it was their smart things app) it wants access to my phone contacts and messages!?

Ha! I'm still playing wipeout (on retro arch though). I only bought a PS1 around 2010 as I'd been an N64 fanboy. I really had missed out.

I heard the Saturn was originally designed as a 2d machine, sega saw what the PS1 was going to be capable of and bolted on 3d. Hence it was a mess. Is it true it could only use quads not triangles for polygons?

To (probabl mis) quote the Economist magazine, when adjusted for other variables the gender pay gap disappears.

I'm not sure I agree with this type of legislation. Most of us have experienced that developer value add varies hugely. I think what bothers me most is that it seems to be a push for pay banding. We re individuals, I'd prefer to neogitate on my own terms.

That's interesting. Would it have been better if sega had wait until post PS2? The Dreamcast was the last console I loved. I bought one on launch day. But I think looking back it was always doomed. I can't recall properly but I think it was someone in EA or high up in sega America who tried to persuade sega Japan that they wouldn't survive with the type of games they were planning for the Dreamcast. Oh well in those two years the Dreamcast had some of my favourite games.

There was a post on hacker news a while back about a study in Finland showing that it doesn't matter if the new builds are "luxury", they increase so supply which will always eventually stop/slow/reverse price increases.

This actually makes sense in terms of supply and demand but more interestingly it's because people tend to "upgrade" when they move this then frees up space at the lower end of the market.

It claims salaries have increased only 35 percent. This seems incorrect to me. For example starting salaries for new developers where I would is roughly 30k (British pound) this is pretty much twice what I started on in 2006.

Actually the old town was built long before the planning office existed.
