Sorry to hear about the layoffs there, and everywhere off.

> we were just cut off with 10000 people by random selection algorithm.

Can you (or anyone) elaborate on how that works? Someone wrote something that does "select empolyee_id from employees limit 10000 order by random" and that's who got laid off? It's a layoff lottery and the winners got laid off?

I don't know how layoffs at huge companies work, maybe that's how it works everywhere?
