I’m just thinking of cases where a country takes over and exiles the old army, and it’s seen the rise of various terrorist groups as you’ve essentially left a bunch of military trained, often zealouse, young men without a career. Could a similar thing happen with Cyber?
Probably not. Call me cynical, but I think the last several generations of young developers got into the career because they thought it was the fast track to a long lifetime cushy job.
That dream hqs exploded, and now only skilled developers have work. So there’s a bunch of angry, unemployed, incompetent people who can’t develop their way out of a paper bag and wouldn’t be able to realize this plan of yours.
Fair. It’s annoying for those who did it out of passion
Well yeah… It’s why I got out of game dev. Too many complete fucking incompetents flooding the market. Some things never change.
I think I’ve found a small niche career in something that satiates my interest but is away from hustle culture. Issue is it’s an internship, I hope they keep me on, though.
Go with your dreams my friend!
When I started, we made the very first internet-based games and I could tell you stories but I’m not here to pump up my ego.
Yes, games technology web, it’s all old hat to everybody now but there was a time when we were the bleeding edge.
If you want to do something that’s niche or off the rails or total unique, do it my friend.
Just do what makes you happy.
Also now I’m curious, what is this area that you’re interested in?
