DtSR Episode 591 - Its a Weird Time in Our Industry
TL;DR: *Warning: This episode is ranty, and potentially offensive to overly sensitive types*. That said, in this episode Jim Tiller and I sit down, drink in hand, and have a good old rant about the state of the industry right now. We talk through the "people problem", and the tech problem, and lay plenty of blame. At some point, I think we even suggested a solution. Maybe.
