100% agreed. The fact that it’s possible to deport someone who has lived in America for decades just for getting laid off is absurdly cruel.

Definitely seems like they want the layoff from my position in the industry.

The tech megagiants are massively reallocating their budgets from “paying people for new product development” to datacenter build-outs, under the belief that AI will fundamentally restructure all knowledge work into property you can own and extract rent from.

Expect things to get less stable and shittier over time as this trend continues.

the Brookings institute and The Economist would agree with you.
