A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

What blows my mind is that they weren't AITSE before??
Like so many positions in film are union, crazy that these key people were in the blind-spot
VFX unionization has been suppressed for decades through a consistent level of FUD and a constant race to the bottom-style system that has been fully supported, encouraged and enforced by the big studio clients.
It’s barely even worth linking that “life after pi” docu-short about Rhythm&Hues at this point, as the same thing has happened again and again since then.
It would be nice if this marks some kind of sea change, but I wouldn’t hold my breath just yet.
Also high percent of techbro libertarian types.
you mean rich assholes?
You don't have to be rich to be a techbro asshole
Especially working for Disney. Well, better late than never!
