Combine that with temporarily-embarrassed billionaires and it's a recipe for disaster. Every last asshole here is hoping for a fat exit for some ReactJS garbage that probably just grinds up poor people into McDonald's hamburger meat; of course they don't give a shit about actual workers with actual lives, whom layoffs predominantly hurt.

I've been laid off, eight months after a hiring blitz for the exact division I worked for. Now, I could've told them the acquisitions they did were stupid and that the products were never going to be profitable, but I don't live in Manhattan, so those decisions are above me. But that didn't stop them from juicing the stock price and ruining our lives anyway.

Fuck these companies. They could do better, and they choose not to. And every last sycophant here is complicit.
