I’m just adding context gleaned from working in Japan for a Japanese company and working to open a studio there right now, mired with corporate lawyers and law; I wish people mentioned that Japan’s regulations make it VERY HARD for big companies to fire employees. 1/3
I spoke to @fortune.com about my upcoming book Super Nintendo and the secret(s) to Nintendo's enduring success - a large part of which is cultivating and caring for developers instead of hiring and firing everyone in yearly cycles.

congressional candidate @katmabu.bsky.social, who was federally indicted after an anti-ICE protest, is taking a unique approach to fundraising for both her campaign and legal battle: twitch streaming. so far, it's working
![Buerk said that Abughazaleh’s donors were the kinds of people who’d kick in hundreds of dollars, not thousands, and as a result, call time was not exactly pulling in money hand over fist.
“In the best of times, we would get $600 an hour [from call time],” she said. “The stream has obviously crushed that. Today we raised $12,000."
The FNAF stream lasted two hours and, thanks to a simple offer of a sticker featuring Abughazaleh’s cat for anyone who donated $10 or more, performed as well as 20 hours of call time. Even during lower-yield streams – the floor, so far, has proven to be $2,000 during a single broadcast – that’s still far preferable a fraction of the money for double, triple, or quadruple the work.
"Kat is busy at events,” said Buerk. “Kat is dealing with a lot of really insane, horrible things. She doesn't have time to be calling people and trying to convince them to donate for 40 hours a week."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5gdejlhcswjbzraadoltdpps/bafkreiev5vfq6o36yivaj74yzc63ehlec7zee7jznl2x6sim463fxfg46y@jpeg)

Staff turnover is definitive evidence of bad management. This simple fact gets lost when wall street rewards C-suite for juicing quarterly reports with hiring/firing cycles.
