It's been a crazy month. Python, redis, Linux. But this one should be a bit closer to home.

Telltale games, a US game development studio is winding up and let go all their staff without severance and were told they had 30 minutes to leave the premises.

Most of the devs were living paycheck to paycheck because of the high cost of living. Some were hired a week earlier and uprooted their families to work there.

That situation is bad enough. But what's worse is the sheer lack of empathy by the customers for the staff. They just want their product cone hell or high water. One even insisted that the devs should work for free until they deliver...

Pleasing the customer should never come at the expense of your staff. We still have a long way to go as an industry
