Is the problem really one of salary when it comes to the suicide nets?

Are the workers driven to suicide for the low pay, or is this actually a matter of horrifyingly bad working conditions?

Gooning takes priority, no matter what

What a joke. Who would ever choose having their shit taken away after a year?

I’m not sure if you’re up to date on how layoffs have been done lately in tech, but management has been primary targets in layoffs. Full layers of management have been removed, and middle managers have often been expected to take on twice as many reports for no increase in compensation.

No comments on the C-level part which is largely correct

Guy bought the U.S government, I’m sure he can figure something out

To be clear, I’m not necessarily against sign language interpreters.

They do miss out on what I consider to be an important part of accessibility though - they are not an example of universal design. High-quality captions are an example of universal design, which gives them higher staying power (what right-winger would move to kill captions?) and makes it easier to justify investments.

That seems like a problem that would be well addressed by investing more resources into the live captioning process, though.
