My Internet is down so I can get very little work done. However, once I started playing these choice tracks, I felt like my labor contribution alone were going to increase GDP by two basis points. Thanks, Business! Call now.

Big Tech is using layoffs to crush worker power - Another theory: “If there’s one thing that firing people in a large-scale and seemingly random way accomplishes, it’s instilling a sense of precarity, even fear, in those who remain.” Also, some commentary here from a tech employee perspective.
