A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

You know, at some point, you gotta assume they'll eventually hire and fire/lose all the usable talent they have access to, and shit like this will prevent them finding new talent. Until some exec "invents" WFH as a perk...

I'd like to think that, but Amazon has the benefit (at least in the US) of operating in a country where most people need 2-3 jobs in order to live, so it's either churn-and-burn or starve.

Yeah, it is.

Could even get Trump reelected in a few months. Super bleak.

Odds I've been hearing for Trump being re-elected are about 3.4 to 1.
