Discord lays off 170 people, blames growing too quickly | TechCrunch::Discord has become a mainstay for many online communities in recent years, but its relative success hasn’t shielded the platform from the financial woes Discord is laying off 17% of staff, or 170 people.

Since they were overstaffed that means the executive team messed up. I am sure they will be held accountable….

Cool blame the government for the decisions of the executive team…

They weren’t FORCED to hire like crazy, they did it because they got greedy, thought the money train would never stop and got caught with their pants down. Many companies stayed within normal growth estimates and many didn’t.

Executive teams should be expected to predict these things accurately or be held accountable. But they won’t. They will cut staff and will happily pretend they did everything they could cash the checks and do the Bronze Medal meme Celebration as they MBA (verb) the fuck out of a company until it is dead and do the same to the next one.

If you’re 40 or under it isn’t worth saving. Retirement is a Myth for Millennials onward. Unless we get UBI, everything is going to go tits up anyway.

If you believe the same retirement options that were available for boomers is realistically available for younger people, I have a 401k to sell you and a Social Security check is in the mail.

Without significant changes to the way we handle our economy no amount of savings now will make up for the shit that’s coming.

That being said, it should be noted I have a good paying job, I have a 401k, I have investments and none of that is going to carry any of us through to the retirement expectations that we’re being sold.

If you’re under 40, between automation and climate change, shit is going to get real very quickly.

What’s Left Of Cable TV Is Slowly Going To Hell (www.techdirt.com)

What’s Left Of Cable TV Is Slowly Going To Hell::We just got done noting how 2023 was finally the year that streaming fully surpassed traditional TV in terms of overall paying subscribers. A very obvious “cord cutting” trend that executives spent years claiming was fake or a fad is now the majority norm. But what’s left...

This is always the same pattern. The new thing is taken over by the same old players and it becomes shitty like the same old thing.

This is most likely the answer. Management saw the revenue and cost and said, “whoa! Turn all that unnecessary stuff off!”

But at those power consumptions series 12/13 aren’t significantly better than an M2…

Obviously this is an exaggeration but the point is the M1/M2 outperform i9s on battery power and honestly that’s the future of computing.

Or, hear me out, we wait until she dies, republish the box in memoriam, rake in the money, drop a couple of million into a donation saying we’ll help people with pneumonia and write off the taxes and claim some publicity! It’s win-win really!

The answer to this is usually Reagan, runaway capitalism and the mega rich.
