Having done both web and gl ux for a living, I think you might be overestimating the complexity of a gl implementation and underestimating the complexity of meeting the same specs using a web implementation.
While not quite the same thing, if you have the time, dip your toes into some immediate mode UI, for example imgui. It is enjoyable not a grind.
As a Canadian, I can confirm 12 months is not enough let alone 6 weeks… I am deeply saddened at the thought of mothers having to go back after so little time
Job descriptions are usually something like: "As a Technical Evangelist, you will be the face of the platform and often the first contact our customers have with us, both online and in person."
I agree to some extent but large companies do staff roles that have public outreach as part of their job description. Suggesting that no one is able to say "there is an internal ticket for this" is not the full answer.
Whenever one of these threads about Google (or Apple) come up, I am shocked at the lack of response from people working at those companies. It seems reasonable that this site would be where you'd find someone from a team that interacted with logic that OP is having trouble with.
I'd expect to see something like a "hey, yeah, I know a guy on our team that might be able to get in touch with the team who maintains this. I've sent them this thread"...
They are forecasting a lower demand in the short term future. I’d guess they ran the numbers and producing fewer high cost items is more cost effective for them.
Unfortunately, this likely means more shortages and costs stay high for the consumer.
