For @thetyee.ca, I wrote about Jacob Silverman’s (great) new book, Gilded Rage, and how the central figures in it continue to find their way to a terrible vision for the future in real-time.

If I learned anything from @greenwell.bsky.social’s excellent book it’s that this is not going to end well for EA

Jason Schreier @jasonschreier.bsky.social · 17d

It’s official: EA is going private.

The leveraged buyout will be financed by a staggering $20 billion of debt, which likely means some *aggressive* cost cutting is ahead for EA in the coming months and years.
