How would you feel if you lost a job you loved

I have no empathy for useless game journalists. They can learn to code.

I would simply find a new job

I'd learn to code!

I did. Because and SJW cunt who didn't like me complained to HR and lied about me. I want all this scum to die painfully

only works for niggers who are willing to fill diversity quotas

Game journalism is cancer. They're literally paid to shill for large corporations while pretending to be a fair third party.

LEARN

TO

CODE

I did and I learned to code, it's easy

good thing I'm not white

They had it coming. Spend years shilling and pushing political propaganda on video games while trying to ruin lives of those who don't agree with their ideas only to get fired by the very company that used you. GET WOKE GO BROKE.

I'd learn to code

>THIS IS BECAUSE THEY WENT WOKE HAHA THEY WENT BROKE
Imagine being this retarded and delusional. Game Stop owns Game Informer. Is Game Stop woke? Are they going broke because they're going woke? Fucking moronic incels.

Game Informer can get fucked, like all gaming "journalists."

i would go down the street to one of the other 12 machine shops and get a job there. everyone wants skilled labour these days

that's what happens when you call coworkers cunts, user

The old guard journalists are finished we are winning the war and youtube journalists are overtaking them, gamegate was their downfall.

> Is Game Stop woke? Are they going broke because they're going woke?
Actually they are going broke.

This doesn't have shit to do with being "woke" you fucking retards, it's because GameStop owns them and they're going under.

Game journalists are garbage people, I don't compare myself with them.

Does Tim Turi, the reviewer who gave Sonic Generations a bad review because it had levels (BASED ON) Sonic 06 and Sonic Colors, fired yet?

No idea, I never had a job I loved so that's a big tough shit at least they had one from me.

Because
>get woke
>go broke

I don't know most of those guys, but Imran Khan is a fuckboi and will not be missed. Lots of the pronoun brigade hate their jobs, hate games, and hate the people who play them. I don't feel sorry for any of them desu. They worked at Game Informer for fuck sake. Gamestop is circling the drain and games media is as well. This was 100% bound to happen at some point soon and they knew it. They should have been starting Youtube/Twitch channels if they cared about staying in the industry talking about games. Since they don't actually give much of a shit about them, they didn't.

I don't remember GameInformer being particularly "woke," any examples?

I think I might be too autistic to ever hold a job.

There's a reason why not every profession can unionize and those that do they realize its not what it seems.

I note most of the folks fired all have their pronouns in their bio, so no great loss IMO.

Enrich me

Why would I fucking listen to a gaming podcast? Get some fucking taste.

What kind of business is it?

Do you even know what unions are retard? No new group of workers can simply unionize and be done with. There are set rules and unspoken bylaws that dictate what a union is and how its formed. Assuming this is North America, every unions from skilled trades and service-based industry are connected and each one has to be given approval or some tribute in order to exist. If a new trade union are formed then one group will extort them for "assistance" while another will demand membership dues. They will most likely be forced to pay political donations or some charity fees for another large union. Its a mafia organization.

Gameinformer was an actual "journalism" magazine with actual good reporting. Of course this is Yea Forums so every journalist is Kotaku tier to them so why even mention it.

Imran Khan is a massive faggot

JUST LEARN TO CODE DOOOD

Fucking kill yourselves incels.

The funniest part are the opened tabs :)

I see no flaw in this argument.

I agree with the fifth one.
White male aged 24 here. Learning to code would make me a statistic.

r/woosh

The job I love would not involve writing intellectually dishonest vitriol and ruining an entire entertainment medium.

Who fucking care who they are. Read the fucking magazine and you'll see some great, multi-page articles that would NEVER find online by these shit 500 words or less publications. Just saying with gameinformer gone you're just not going to get that shit ever again.

I lost my job once but I knew how to code and now I'm a manager for coders! Click here to find out more.

I hope this is just a post-ironic shitpost and not what you seriously think about this thread

Which part isnt true

Gameinformer was and still is a shitty rag used to sell preorders to gamestop clients

selling cocoa beans and products. The jump from local to international was challenging to say the least. A lot of communities depend on us.

All I see is multi-page SJW PROPAGANDA PIECES

I doubt you'd love your job if all you ever did was bitching how bad everything is and how everything needs to change.

They should learn to code

This, I didn't know what the fuck to do with this massive pile of shit I got delivered to me for months. Maybe I'll make a bonfire or something out of it all, would serve a better purpose.

Yeah people lost their jobs that will teach them for not thinking like me and dare liking the DMC reboot. Hail the hivemind that is V.

It would suck. But then again I'm a software engineer so I'll find another place to work at.

I'd still laugh at you retards.

Muh magazine job oh noooo. Lmao

So rather than offering sympathy, empathy or realistic advice you're just shitting on them maliciously, and then you're surprised when they write shit about you incels.

Okay,

I certainly wouldn't virtue signal at people I'd never see again

Want a tissue?

>unironically calling others incels on 4channel.org
This site isn't for you, you should do us and yourself a favor and leave permanently

>So rather than offering sympathy, empathy or realistic advice you're just shitting on them maliciously
You continue to be ignorant of why people are replying "learn to code". Quit posting.

Hahahaha cry more faggot, I hope they cant find work and lose everything they have by the grace of allah

>Laid off at a days notice

Do these people have contracts? Is the games media made up of independent contractors?

>>requires 3-4 year university degree that puts you in massive amounts of debt
that's why you get a job with said degree and pay them back

Yea Forums mocks unions and then questions why these workers dont have union-like benefits

>do these people have contracts

Hahahahaha giving employment contracts to bloggers? Yeah right

The "learn to code" isn't meant seriously, it's poking fun at the fact the media has constantly been pushing the "outsourcing and automation are no big deal because people will just get skilled jobs like programming."
It's throwing what journalists have been pushing back at them.

These people don't love their job, or at least they don't love the "gaming" part of their job. They love to shit out their personal opinions and get paid for it, so they can do that for free and fuck off somewhere else to do real work. It's telling that the ones that ate their market are streamers who are actually fucking playing the games. That's literally what everyone asked from these journos.

Wait, Game Informer still exists?

Makes sense. Who's even subscribed to Game Informer anymore?
To be honest I kinda miss it.

Attached: 1493441530721.png (463x533, 259K)

>>need the mathetical and logical ability to code in the first place
So you're admitting journalists are fucking retarded?

Coasties all sign at-will contracts that are basically slave labor. You're salaried, expecting to work unpaid overtime, can be laid off with no notice, severance, or benefits, Democrat local government made it legal, and they can't unionize because there's a miles-long line of scabs dying to take any position at any of these companies so workers have no bargaining power, work conditioners and job security are shit, and if you step out of line, they'll toss you out like yesterday's garbage and have a replacement lined up before you hit the ground.

A union wouldn't have saved their jobs you retard, they weren't contracted employees. They were glorified temp workers and were dropped because game informer couldnt afford them anymore. If anything a union would have prevented their stupid jobs from existing in the first place because no company is going to spend huge amounts of money on writers nobody even reads.

Learn to code

>Muh union
Having a contract with your employer is shit all to do with being in a Union, why the fuck are these people gambling with their future? I have a real job and I negotiated my contract very fucking carefully, why on earth would these journalists throw effort in to a job that can drop them on a days notice? Is this common in America?

You can learn how to do web development in a few months and get a decently paid job. Even better if you get the fuck out of California since you can actually use that money on yourself.

>So rather than offering sympathy, empathy or realistic advice
You mean those things modern witchhunt organizers, I mean "journalists", refuse to offer when they make a career out of ruining lives?

Not every single person in the world is a math genius you spastic, you think you can train every single human being to program?

No sympathy for journalist filth

I know people do what they have to do to pay the bills but journalism is one of those jobs I simply can not respect. They make their living pushing propaganda for rich people. At best they're making people waste their money on shitty products, and at worst theyre often trying to brainwash people with pro-globalist ideologies.

>subscribe to game informer as a kid

I genuinely thought this was a sad dog shown from behind at first

KEK

There probably would be some pushback from publishers (and it's something they could have negotiated with them if they cared), but they could have streamed themselves playing and then released the written reviews. It's not like actual streamers get most of their money from playing the games on release day.

kek that's not even bad

I'm looking at my internal forum right now and corporate says this was a necessary sacrifice to reduce costs and ensure investments continue. This was the "final step" in their reorganizational initiative designed to keep them from closing.

No further large scale firings are planned I should add

The game was largely about the massive flaws found in socialism, And how in an automated society all creativity is destroyed and people suffer from an existential crisis.
So typical that journos hunted the devs down and even got some of the game to be defunded because they didn't agree with it.

Yeah, because topical opinion pieces that can typed up in 15 minutes by college kiddies is the same as heavy equipment training, excavation and aspects of labor safety.

Totally.

And friendly reminder that twitter started banning anyone who said it when journos started bitching.

Has any profession suffered worse on Twitter more than journalism? They always cultivated this image of being hard charging truth seekers like it’s 1953. They still do. But thanks to Twitter we see they are a pathetic group of losers obsessed with their reputation in their own circles and maintaining a tyrannical grip on discourse.

Any retarded company around a metropolitan area will hire you directly from school. Even if you forget everything you ever learned as long as you know the generic, practically useless interview questions about bubble sort and for loops you will get the job. I know multiple people who hardly know how to code yet make 6 figures because the US government and its contractors are full of incomps making software that's akin to monkeys on typewriters.

Twitter is just the vehicle, not the problem. These days everyone is fighting to get the story out as fast as possible and with as much sensationalism as possible for the sweet, sweet ad rev and page views. Nobody cares about the truth anymore.

now they see how stupid and snide that 'advice' is

If the "job you loved" is feeding false video game news, corrupting shit in return of stuff catering to you, and having a disdain for video games and its players, its time to find a new job

Game Informer was of the few news sources who steered clear of falseflag gate in 2014. Genuinely don't understand the hate the mag gets because GameStop is so hands-off and how they still write about what they want to. I guess game journo equals automatic hate.

Most of the thread are gg retards who should have left for hotwheels Chan.

You don't remember all the scams?
>In yet another demonstration that the learn-to-code debacle in Appalachia is far from over, a new profile in the New York Times takes on a venture called Mined Minds, which promised to give laid off miners high paying tech jobs and revolutionize coal towns, and ended up making wild accusations about the people it initially hired after failing to live up to its promises. On the surface, it’s a story of a pretty obvious scam in which a tech education company behaved more like a Fyre Festival type scam without the wire fraud, funneling public funds into a seemingly never-ending party, then blaming the culture of rural Pennsylvania and West Virginia when local governments caught off and closed the cash spigot.

>But it’s also a story that shows some of the reasons why teaching miners to code was always going to be problematic. It’s not that laid off miners or anyone else can’t learn how to code. It’s true that writing code isn’t for everyone, but your previous career is irrelevant in the realm of math and logic. No, the problem was that there was no plan beyond teaching miners the basics of coding and a trendy web development language, then something, something jobs. No one was able to answer the question of why any tech company should relocate from an urban hub to Appalachia other than cost and the promise of generous tax cuts that both companies and local governments know the community cannot really afford.

I started as a logger and moved up. It was the best employer where I grew up and I went to school part time five hours away once I started making money. Took me 8 years to get a BS and 3 to get a MS. I do training and development shit now.

But you don't gut a division because it's turning profit. ESPECIALLY if your primary business is losing money. Ipso facto Game Informer were losing money and had to be culled because the parent couldn't subsidise their shitty "journalism" anymore.

I think that you underestimate how bad the situation with Gamestop is. It's not just having a bad year, it's gonna be fucking gone within the next year or two.

haha, get fucked muslims

journalism is a shrinking field in general due to the rise of social and decentralized media. review journalism is especially on the decline. there is a lot of schadenfreude being directed at journalists losing their jobs because of some journalists years ago exhibiting dismissive behavior towards other fields, in one notable example coal miners. "learn to code" is a phrase associated with some publications like the New York Times saying that middle aged coal miners could simply enter fields that they had no experience in if they were downtrodden for losing their outdated jobs, as though 55 year old coal miners are suddenly going to learn java and become web developers.

the point is, a lot of industries go out of date and have worked get laid of. journalism claimed this years ago and said everything was okay and that's how things go, yet when it happens to them they act like it's some sort of crime. they're not special.

I thought coding did take a really good math brain. I couldn't keep up with it and ended up memeing in IT. I can barely write scripts. You programmers are fucking geniuses imo

>2-4 shitposters to run a Twitter account
Fixed for you

Coal mining is dying even faster than news media, though.

>post yfw gamestop will die in your lifetime

of course it is, but they're both dying. and the one that's doing better is acting like it's somehow worse that some of them are losing their jobs than the coal miners. "learn to code" is just a way of telling them their own words. if coal miners losing their job isn't cause for concern because they can just change their fields then it's not some sort of crime against humanity that we all need to stop and show concern for a few video game reviewers getting laid off from their dying publications.

>unionize your workplace
Who's going to hire a unionized blogger? They're not a draw. They're not bringing anything to the table that can't be filled by any English Speaker with low standards for life.

What a farce.
Game Informer wasn't particularly woke, though (at least not here), it was just a boring, cheapo rag being funded by Gamestop and was probably a loss-leader to incentivize memberships, I doubt it's got much to do with anything beyond that.

All the wagie slaves you won't be so brave better run, better run, outrun my gun.

>just a boring, cheapo rag being funded by Gamestop and was probably a loss-leader to incentivize memberships, I doubt it's got much to do with anything beyond that.
ding ding ding, correct
though they did have decent coverage sometimes.

Math is required but a lot of it can be done through logical thinking and while innefficient you can do complex mathematic formulas in the most direct way possible(adding/subtracting or multiplying/dividing one step at a time). You just need to be able to think logically.
The only math you need to be genuinely good at for games is coordinate geometry, the rest can be cheesed to varying degrees and then improved as you get better at thinking. CG is one of my best math subjects. Can't do Trig or more complex formulas to save my life but I've been able to do plenty just by thinking about how things really work in the world of the game.

Most people can't think logically like that though. Like 90% of people would never be able to learn to program professionally.

Video game magazines are an obsolete relic and serve no purpose due to the internet being widespread. The fact they survived this long is a miracle.

It's seriously not that complex it's shit like
>I want to go up and then down
>that means I use the y axis
>To go up I make a negative value
>To go down I need to make the y value 0 again
>I need it to go down over time so I'll make it drop by a relative value instead of solid instantaneous value
That's how you jump.
It's literally being aware of up, down, left and right. If you can do that, you can program to some degree.

Why is it that programming so in demand? It's one of the only professions that will actually relocate new grads or people for internships. Not even IT does that. The only other things I can think of are certain engineering and nursing disciplines. Programming just seems hugely valued and most people seem to drop off like flies after trying to get into it. I think it requires a very specific kind of person to be able to do that work.

>t.colion Campbell

Imagine working for other people.

>Why is it that programming so in demand?
it's a skill that will be good for the coming "gig" economy. many small and medium sized companies who won't be able to afford automated basic programming systems will need temporary low level developers for small scale projects. it's sort of like a trade.

Good. Fuck journalists

They seem to take it the worst way too, always begging for a job online.
It happened when TellTale Games folded, bunch of whining on their account, then asking if anyone is hiring.

I mean it's tedious as fuck and there's a good amount of trial and error involved. Most people can't stand seeing nothing progress for days on end before finally hitting the answer and everything just bursts forwards out of nowhere and progress is mad in droves. You need to patient as fuck or incredibly autistic to want to do it because things will break often when you get deeper into it.
Programming is like the antithesis to loot boxes or gacha or other skinner box things.

Can you get me a job please, I'm in a shit rut of my life.

Question. How much do you need to learn programming to do security work? And any specific certs to get? What was your path?

Unfortunately, this is how people get hired. It's not about a process where the best candidate is selected. It's pure networking

gamestop is woke now, actually
no i will not explain further

What had he done?

TO

Step one: Learn how data flows from your PC to the Interwebz
Step two: Learn how to navigate NSM packages

99% of cyber security is network infrastructure. Coding is only useful to the 1% who aren't retarded and can juggle programming and networking simultaneously for stupid large salaries.

>Rockband isn't typically my kind of game, but I cannot deny it's popularity. New features in the latest installment include x, and some big name songs in this one are y.

That's the bare minimum effort required to pretend you give a shit about this review. But instead he just ranted about how he doesn't actually like video games at all and instead talked about how he's paid to go to these parties and events to get better insight into reviewing these games, and instead spends that time in the corner of the room discussing another countries politics like it makes him smart

A bunch of basement dwelling virgin NEETs laughing at people losing their jobs. Misery loves company I guess.

You can get paid pretty decent in security without having to program right? I'm learning Python just to have some extra scripting knowledge but I don't wanna be a full blown programmer. I was thinking more toward the blue team side, like compliance or something. Not sure if that would be boring though but it does seem more chill.

oh wow. i'm a long time GI fan since early days of Replay show

imran was a recent hire and an SJW
suriel was a recent hire, and while to my knowledge not an SJW, he could be
kyle is a long time hire, he's a really awkward dude

maybe now replay can get back to glory days since they still kept jeff cork and joe juba

he works for capcom as a community manager type

Neck yourself Gameinformer employee #1627

If you apply for a security position that needs scripting knowledge you're going to be tested and (if hired) put to work writing scripts. This shouldn't need to be explained, yet here we are. Business management is more compliance/auditing focused.

I'm not a shitty unprofessional person trying to shoehorn my religion into my work.

i mean all i can say is i personally stopped purchasing the mag after it became apparent they had hired a bunch of sjw's like david milner, because i don't fund sjw projects.

i dont know much about modern game informer but you can rest assured any modern game journos are all sjw cancer. the sooner they all go extinct the better. youtubers are cleaning them out and people can choose their reviewers with youtube instead of sjws hijacking companies.

I've seen on Reddit that security+ is a meme but CISSP is only for advanced management shit. So I don't know what the actual entry level cert is for blue team security junk. I only see shit about pen testing like CEH and OSCP

it's a legitimate question considering most education and training is a scam

That and if the entire staff is fairly young they'll most likely not want an older person working with them since they just want someone they can talk freely in front of without worrying about them reporting it to the boss

Its happens all the time:
>hey user we are low on staff, do you know anyone?
Or If you climb enough the corporate ladder you can step in and suggest the empty job for a friend before the company starts looking publicly outside for workforce.

My boss has asked me several times if I know anyone reliable who needs a job.
If you're a competent worker and say that your friend is one too, they're at least getting an interview

shut it down!!

get fucked. kek

I was fired too because some one went to HR and told them some bullshit.
they went to HR and told them that they heard me saying I was going to bring a gun and shoot up the place.
and they believed her over me, despite my 5 year tenure and multiple awards.
i obviously fought it and they resorted to just giving me a misconduct write up, making me illegible to transfer and making the promotion I was about to receive null.
what shouldn't have come to a surprise was how much HR just didnt give two shits about what I said in my defense, I was for all intents and purpose, the Evil White Man.

I'd learn to code better.

Underrated post

>valued skills
If they had those, they wouldn't be in games journalism

unless you want to create new tech then any idiot could learn to code since anything you'll ever need someone else has already made it. So all you need is basic logic and know how to copy and paste. That's how you code in 2019. Yes, you don't do shit but look for what you need then you just copy and paste it.

>"most people are racist anyways"
Having that assumption is one flaw. People are naturally prejudice, but barely anyone is proudly actively racist except sociopaths.

record everything, lawyer up.

most states let employers "fire at will" but you never know if there's a discrimination or slander case that can be proven.

lmao get fucked, I hope every game journo is forced to work at McDonald's

OWNED LMAO

>Hey you’re kinda cute
How is this a bad thing to say to someone?
why even HR would care that someone were called "kinda cute" by anyone?

Yeah. But it's only the lesser reason why I stopped subscribing to them, but that was 8 years ago. Who knows how far they progressed since then.

Now, have sex.

It used to be funny

Not because they ran their business like shit but because their service became obsolete. They would need radical change of the entire structure to survive. Basically become gaming antiquarian shops or something.

Its a bit misleading phrase. Often virtue signaling companies going woke to a point of retardation has failure following them. That doesnt mean the wokeness itself ruined it, it means its often a symptom of bigger problems in the company.

Game journalism was nothing but advertising since the days the reviews were printed in magazines. I mean some journalist dude who worked in the industry back then called it out as shilling even back then, and why "fair and honest" review sites like Metacritic came to be (and then sold out for $$$)
But, those guys writing shill pieces for Nintendo Power! or XBOX magazine at least weren't such dimwits that they actively sought to antagonize and piss on the people who paid their wages.
The weblogger marketing generation seem to intentionally go out on the offense and attack the people they're trying to sell stuff to. It's baffling, is it some kind of sex fetish thing? "FUCK YOU, PROSPECTIVE BUYER! BUY MY SHIT! BUY IT, YEEEEEEAH! TAKE MY ABUSE LIKE A GOOD LITTLE PAYPIGGY, WHORE!"

Dunno, does such a thing even exist?

Does this mean I will no longer get them with my pro membership?

THE REAL QUESTION IS:
When it will happen to K*taku?

No such thing I'm afraid.

Just imagine, also how entitled & dumb do you have to be thinking it'd actually be beneficial to unionise when working in the private sector, especially when you're blogging for a living.
