Journalist's or Architects would beat SV for that hands down
- lwf 8y agoIndividual journos or architects, sure. Firms? Fat chance. https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052748704317704574503480514474764 https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052748704317704574503... > The Wall Street Journal plans to close its news operation in Boston, eliminating nine positions, amid a historic decline in newspaper revenue. > > The affected journalists can apply for other positions at the newspaper, said Robert Thomson, managing editor of The Journal and editor-in-chief of the paper's parent company, Dow Jones & Co., in a memo to staff on Thursday. The Boston Bureau was home to, among other things, the hard-hitting investigative healthcare reporter, Keith Winstein, the author of Mosh.
- bradleyjg 8y agoEh. I don't know anything about architects and architecture, but neither most news outlets nor most journalists are doing all that well financially. The saving the world shtick is easier to take when there are actual sacrifices being made.
- xkcd-sucks 8y agoArchitecture is low pay and looooong hours unless partner at a hot/top firm. Apparently the thrill of "building cool stuff" and "changing the world" makes up for the low pay. Typically architects age into consulting or management. Thinking about it, not too different from the tech industry.
