Took MS 14 years to figure that one out. Even with accelerating tech timelines, Jassy has some time.

This is why the military is supposed to stay out of US cities and spy agencies respect citizens privacy.

Cowards all around with no moral compass.

So easy to protect from the sun and the reward in the mountains is so wonderful. Terrible waste to stay locked in.

Wouldn’t be surprised if this were another contributor to less heart disease- so much incentive to get outside and do stuff.

From a source closely involved with this- Amazon tracks many productivity metrics of employees and was seeing very significant differences between in-person and remote people, which drove the decision.

Source left since so I don’t know how much productivity has improved.

Advice to new grads: get into the office 5 days a week for at least a few years.

Why is it that these "sources" always remain anonymous and outside the possibility of an external review?

Presumably because they’d be punished for sharing such information and you don’t rat out your friends?

Bueller?

He's sick. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from a guy who knows a kid who's going with the girl who saw him pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I think it's serious.

Those numbers were so convincing they have been shared with employees... 0 (ZERO) times.

Why would they share that... come on lets not be naive here. Do they always justify every bigger decision to whole world? It just creates friction surface for various people to catch on. C suite is there to set directions, not to explain themselves to their employees.

Its like getting refused during interview process. Sharing actually why makes no sense for hiring people, no gain and potentially a lot to lose.

I don't like the situation overall or RTO at all since it markedly increases quality of my personal life (which makes me a happier employee too but nobody really cares about that) but we need to be realistic with various people's motivations.

Orders and rules without explanation or motivation, damages morale and loyalty.

That's a reason to publish any statistics they might have (at least internally)

> It's like getting refused during interview process

Not at all! Those rejected, disappear. But grumpy employees are still there, but less productive

Yes. They would. There is a whole world of MBA and business analysis schools that look into this with a microscope.

The evidence that we have is that hybrid work is a net increase in productivity. Do note its hybrid, not remote.

Why would they share it? To counteract employees complaining endlessly about it, presumably.

This would be impressive. since it complete contradicts what reports we do have of hybrid work (hybrid, not remote)

That's turning locations into coordinates (ip geolocation). It's to be expected that the gps log only bases their logs on the coordinates from the GPS from the phone.

It is a discussion with other human beings. Very different.

The actual issue is that the winning bid was $7m- $1.75m cash + $5.25m in debt forgiveness. The question is whether that bid is higher than the competing $3.5m all-cash bid.

That $5.25m debt forgiveness would have to be valued at $1.75m or more for the winning bid to actually be higher, but if other creditors are assuming that they will have losses of higher than 66% then the $3.5m all-cash bid would actually be better for other creditors.

These limits are far below standard scraping rates and deeply affecting the casual users, have to presume intentionally.

Same- rate limited after 20 mins. Way to force me to move elsewhere.

Advertising must really be in the hole to force users off the site like this.

This kills any advertising revenue they have and I'm sure twitter blue subscribers won't be happy about this if it keeps going on. I wonder if they will give twitter blue subscribers an even higher limit so that they can actually use it.
