Totally sane. Most layoffs are an effort to boost stock prices because some executives made a dumb fucking decision.
Being laid off is absolutely not a comment on your worth as an employee or a human being. You should give companies as much of your blood sweat and tears as they’d give you - none. With some extremely rare exceptions being an employee is just a transaction.
I was undeclared but leaning towards a stats major in college - I started working with SAS and found I liked building the solutions more than figuring out the statistics of it all.
It’s still an option.
America doesn’t have legal constructs around political parties so whatever the fuck the democrats do won’t go against US law - its all just “tradition”.
It was either Cowboy Bebop or Princess Mononoke - I was first introduced in an after-school anime club.
It isn’t.
Block all tracking.
The boomer die off is coming - when that generation starts to really drop like flies we’ll see millennials offloading property and a likely deflation of the market. The issue right now is that boomers are making so much money off their properties that many of them own multiple homes and a fair few have dozens of rental properties.
The danger is that corporate landlords start scooping up the estate sales.

This is fully deserving of a Nelson laugh.
The physical aspect of laptops - the old ThinkPads were fucking amazing and while their specs may not be much to look at today they were equipped with adequate cooling and could take a fair amount of beating.
I don’t want a light thin laptop that I could snap in two with one hand… I want a laptop that isn’t going to overheat and can survive a few tumbles when someone trips over the power cord.
And add unit tests to trivialize this process!

That’s quite possible but if they are they’re failing even at doing that properly. Damn, the class of bigot we get today are just so fucking incompetent! /s
And we all really started paying attention when they put on cat ears.
Wat? Does you geography?
Barcelona is in Catalonia its the part of Spain directly across the Pyrenees from Perpignan.
Are you thinking of Cadiz? (You’re still wrong) Or Tangier? Marrakech? Fez? Casablanca?
And why do you think nobody cares about Morocco?
But copilot suggested it and it obviously knows what it’s doing! If I couldn’t trust literally everything it spat out it wouldn’t be sold by Microsoft for really obvious liability reasons!
That depends on what precisely you mean by “use”, buddy.
Assuming you have all the source code… it is possible. It’s usually a huge pain in the ass though and software is so complicated that it’s extremely difficult to get anything useful.
Apple. I want nothing to do with a closed ecosystem and I loathe how central AppleID is to absolutely everything.
I have fdroid and a few custom apks that wouldn’t be available on their store, so those would be hooped as well.
That is one part - the other half is just simply that the market expects a response to any perceived failure. If a publicly traded company has a bad quarter the market wants to see some corrective action and it wants it now (long term plans don’t mesh with the constant news cycle of the market). Layoffs are a way to lower your expenses and cause a sudden shift in profit numbers… even though they nearly always result in long term damage to the company.
