99% chance that this hits support, trust and safety among other teams that are the main teams responsible for reducing reactionary shit on the platform.
I know someone on one of those teams. She's safe (for now) but said a lot of great folks she's been working with have been laid off
retvrn to forvm please, we don't need 1000 ephemeral discord servers for minecraft mod documentation
It really is so ass. If a mod or modpacks requires joining the discord to understand it I'm much more likely to not play it to begin with.
This goes double for mods hosted on discord, or really anywhere but curseforge for Minecraft and nexus for everything else (unless it's a stupidly important mod like Vanilla UI+ for New Vegas).
"Muh intellectual property!! Archiving my unofficial modifications of an existing work is doing terrorism on me!!" Yeah ok buddy 
Discord is only useful for getting friends together and voice chats, it's awful for any kind of discussion. Newest messages are read first, there's no way to skip to the start of a discussion... Actually I don't need to explain why a forum is a better format for anything technical, it's just obvious
Lol. Economy sucks? You suffer. Economy is good? You suffer.
I picked a bad time to learn to code didn't I 
LMAO, I finally worked up the courage to go back to college in order to become "employable" too.
I really do have Looney Tunes antagonist tier bad luck.
Yup. Basically the same boat.
Aw well fuck it. My life just gonna be downhill from here. Gonna be renting a room from my mom forever. Never going to have a serious partner again, always going to be in debt and broke, forget ever having my own place or traveling much. Maybe I should start drinking and smoking again 🤔

same 
and I've never even got to have a partner or FWB or w/e the first time around...
I'm in my 30s now and feel like my whole life has been wasted. I'd be so much better off if I just hadn't been such a dumbass in my 20s. Oh well, it's over for me now, guess I'll just enjoy watching this miserable world I was forced into burn.
If it makes you feel any better, I didn't fuck off in my 20s and still ended up in the same place.
I didn't fuck off in my 20s
what do you mean by that?
I tried to be a Serious™ person in my 20s and do all the career building, grindset stuff post-college. I never traveled, didn't party, had few friends, etc. Here I am in my 30s and I'm still living paycheck and can't afford to own a home in my area. I regret not taking a more time to enjoy myself during my 20s because it made little difference in the end.
oh, yeah. I didn't travel or party or have any friends to hang with, and I didn't bother to do any career building. So... kinda fucked lol
yup, 33 here
Well have fun buddy
you too
ehh, they'll be back to hiring once interest rates start dropping again. it might take a year or two but the industry is extremely dependent on interest rates because everything is financed by VC loans.
We keep talking about "the cool zone" and how the empire is in decline here. I think I need to accept im dying in a ditch outside of Tehran or in an encampment of forest fire refugees.
maybe, I just mean that if you want a software job, they'll become available soon^tm^.
I just want to get out of the miserable service industry and make enough that my narcissistic mom can't keep guilt tripping me about how much she "supports" my broke 30 year old ass cuz she rents me part of a crappy house for slightly below market value, while also crashing there every time she and her boyfriend are on the rocks (which is like half the time) and having a bunch of annoying rules about what I can and can't do there that no regular landlord would.
I just want some fucking autonomy but there's no chance of that in this miserable world I was pulled into against my will.
capitalists deserve profit because they risk bankruptcy when engaging in enterprise!
but the workers risk getting fired and starving to death just by working for you 
thank you Mr. Job Creator
…as a wave of major tech companies rectified their head counts
as though they were just some old mismatched drinking glasses or something else that needed disposing of.
So management now has to sit out on bonuses and take severe pay cuts for wrongfully hireing that many people... right?
Not that it would meaningfully affect them, but it's so wacky that the people responsible for actually making the decisions just shrug their shoulders a torch hundreds of people's livelihoods.
This is fine. M4A, though, you'd better have a plan to re-employ each and every person who used to work for the Torment Nexus.
Ya'll heard about Matrix?
Great movie. A classic
major tech firms, including Google and Amazon, made hundreds of layoffs this week.
How do they all do the same shit and have the same excuse at the same time? 
Yellen says US growth rate needs to slow amid full employment
Mass layoffs is austerity. They do this periodically. When the capitalists think workers are getting too much wages, it’s time to lay them off and starve them to the point that they will accept being re-hired at lower wages and shitter working conditions and benefits. After all, where else are they going to go?
Some leftists still think that capitalists need workers to function. But the key here is wage relations. As long as the capitalists preserve the wage relations, workers will always need to work for the capitalists to survive.
This is why the core components of socialism involve dismantling private property ownership and wage relations, while the capitalists will do everything to maintain that order, even if it means losing billions of dollars of profit in the short term. Without understanding how capitalism works, and without a strategy and organization informed by theory, labor actions are futile against the capitalist class.
IRC gang. It's all up to the clients and servers. Want to run that shit on a VIC-20? We won't stop you. Got a refrigerator-sized PDP-11 rack setup laying around? Yeah, you can connect with it. Third party clients allowed? Hell, there aren't any first-party clients.
