Another blog post... bad take again, can't see the forest through the trees.

What would have been the forum 15 years ago where people were saying this about Mircrosoft & IBM? [insert that article here]

This blog post is like an exact replica of other tech companies throughout time. Entire communities formed because they hated MSFT & IBM. This is happening again.

All the pessimist were totally wrong back then, little did they know a shithead company Facebook was 10x worse for privacy than MSFT or IBM.

70 cents per hour is a mountain of fees... basically a $1 per meeting. Sheesh.

Stop working for tech companies that don't give a shit about you. You want a business that cares about you... start one.

1. Too many humans - decision-making is slowed down & and it's expensive

Cut half - faster decisions, more money. Will you have more problems, Yes. But you'll never know how bloated you were till you get lean again.

2. Too expensive humans

Most developers at FANGS can be replaced with mediocre devs in iowa or India. They will cut high-priced salaries soon and replace them with entry-level talent.

Spreadsheet warrior kinda shit. CFO needed 500M for a stock-buyback. CFO wrote down some napkin math, let go 1/5 of the team. Murdered all innovation into the ground. Wallstreet loved it. Snapchat is a cashcow on a spreadsheet. CFO knows he needs another 20% layoff in Q1 of 2023 to drive his cost of capital down further. Expect more pain from the suits.
