All of this seems like deliberate destruction of America from the inside out by an ayn-rand worshipping, billionaire afrikaaner cabal (David Sacks, Elon Musk, roelof botha etc). Thoughtless and mindless cuts

Utter incompetence from senior leadership at Netflix. They had so much time to prepare for this.

To be honest, it's really hard to understand what Fleak does. For a minute, I thought it's a low-code way of deploying microservices/API endpoints. Maybe one end to end use case would help

I propose line managers be on-call 3-4 days a week so they continue to get that high and actually be useful :-)

I mean it's not like they're claiming to be Gartner..who by the way, gasp, do paid marketing for "fair" rankings.

It's likely you're sharing it across households/relatives. Not sure I'd go to such lengths for something that costs as much as a Chipotle burrito tbh

Disagree, total content spend the last 4 years has been ~18bn/year compared to ~500m/yr on all employee R&D. That's shows there's a content quality problem not a content underinvestment.

Describing engineers as "fat and happy" is really derogatory. Their spend on tech employees is a tiny fraction of total content spend. Also, an even tinier fraction of what they spend on services like AWS. If they want to cut costs, there's a ton more low hanging fruit than letting people go. In fact, revenue per employee is the highest compared to other FAANG

Is this the right way to expose that hypocrisy though? If his goal was to truly bring society together and eradicate hate, I'm sure someone as smart as Adams could expose it in a more amicable and less polarizing way.

How quickly the tide turns in our industry..from massages at your desk to sitting on each other's laps. Hey they could perhaps still continue the massage to each other though.

Microsoft HQ has an awesome library. Every big tech should have such a space for some quiet reading
