  • Yep, and in many cases people got let go, then rehired 2 days later when things got cleared up, and kept their severance. The layoffs were mostly rushed. One guy was going to be a speaker at an event for the company, and as everyone sat down waiting for him to hop on stage, they hadn't realized he was let go. Absolute waste just to make the numbers look good on paper, but a huge loss of investment.

    Imagine youre a senior engineer with 2000 stock units with accelerated vesting (was about 32$ at the time), severance at least in canada was over 20 weeks of pay lump sum given the collective dismissal + vacations. They were dropping 100k(before tx) to engineers to make them go away, and hire them back the week after.

    Worst company I've ever worked for, but I did make a pretty penny that week. Luckily I got hired a month later somewhere else.

  • Because he's attacking all institutions that have some sort of control he wants. The wide net just feeds into the deep state narrative and he needs to capitalize on that right now

    Kids, healthcare, education, private equity etc.. that's how you make a dictatorship.

    See it this way, BlackRock has enough power to do to the republican party what the republican party is doing to the gov. They need all of that gone to become megalomaniac authoritarians.

    If I wanted to become Bill Gates, and make my own Microsoft, i first have to outlaw bill gates and Microsoft.

  • Funny you mention THAT game.

    Not that I have anyyy insider knowledge, but great care was taken to avoid very specific things. Also who knows, had coromon exploded in popularity, maybe Nintendo would have bothered.

  • Saw videos/articles online that this was the "end of gamedev" or whatever.

    While patents for games are shit, theyve been around a long time and are hard to enforce. Palworld made it incredibly easy for one of the most ruthless companies to go after them. I expected they waited to see the final game before taking action, and until palworld made a ridiculous amount of money.

    I've worked on Pokemon clones that are commercially available, and while they didn't sell as much as palworld, they took a bit more care designing around stuff

  • Let me guess, youre not vaccinated and nor are your kids?

    Rotaviruses cannot be killed by normal sanitizing and nearly all children will have it (and developed resistance) by the age of 5. It almost never affects adults.

    Might as well not let your kids do anything at that point, ballpits are not better at spreading rotaviruses than anything else. Ballpits are not clean, but the toys, floors and walls at the daycare aren't either, not as far as rota is concerned at least

  • Funny this article mentions nothing of that. I had read it somewhere else.

    This is what Maccabi Tel Aviv Hooligans did in the Netherlands that triggered all the violence against them after the authorities did nothing, don’t let anyone twist it.

    Israelis are not the victim.

    They took down Palestine’s flag and then it all started.

    An eyewitness stated: “It all kicked off when they pulled a Palestinian flag off a facade. Then they started provoking and destroyed a taxi driver's car and beat up the driver themselves.”

    Some Maccabi fans were seen with metal chains, ready to attack.

    Also during tonight’s match between Ajax and Maccabi Tel Aviv, the Israeli supporters refused to hold a minute of silence for Valencia flood victims. They even started illegal fireworks.

    They sang racist extermination songs

    “Let the IDF win to Fuck the Arabs”

    Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans chant their genocidal song while being protected by the police in Amsterdam, this song they’re chanting has a part that says “there are no schools in Gaza because there are no children left”.
