From the article: Profit increased due to headcount reductions. Translation -> we were too big, got rid of some dead weight, and now our numbers are better

The FAANGS (and others) overhired since 2020. That is bloat. They all are trying to get lean recently. They can't do what Elon did at Twitter so they use other methods like reducing benefits. https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/GOOG/alphabet/number-of-employees...

I haven’t. It’s called networking. Seems like something I said has touched a nerve. You don’t think those companies are bloated or woke? You don’t think they had tons of fully remote slackers? What is your boots on the ground take on the situation?

Amazon is more like you describe but still has people they need to get rid of.. thus the forced return to work. Google is woke as fuck and full of dead weight. And then think about all the large non tech companies, even worse. Your head is in the sand if you can’t acknowledge that.

Imagine how many Amazon, Google, etc could lay off if they had some balls

I’m a believer in remote work but way too many people have taken advantage of this and don’t pull their weight. And large companies in California these days are too woke to actually fire people so they have to do this dance… Strong performers at these companies are still able to be 100% remote -...

Thanks for these updates! Closings have definitely slowed down so I’m glad to see these details from you and look forward to reading your latest observations when you get a chance.

OpenCore is amazing! I have a 2012 Mac Mini (I upgraded the RAM and changed to SSD years ago) on it and it is still running great with Sequoia.

Yeah unfortunately OC as well

I don't think so - other than paying $395 for one month of service and then cancelling (there is no commitment required). This company, Honey Homes, is introducing this as a subscription plan. They started in the Bay Area and just now expanded to LA/OC it seems. As with all subscriptions, need...

Thought I'd share some positive feedback for a handyman I used recently. His name is Juan and the service I used is called Honey Homes (https://www.honeyhomes.com/). The idea is that you have a designated handyman who dedicates 3.5 hours of time every month to taking care of all kinds of issues...

Turtle Ridge homes were built starting in 2003 and they have Google Fiber. I’m not sure if that is considered old or new lol

Parts do feel more ghetto than they used to be. I noticed all kinds of strange characters walking across the Irvine Center Drive 405 overpass the other morning. I don’t understand where these people are coming from and where they are going. The apartments at Spectrum and Los Olivos are super...

I think many on the left believe in state as a religion. They know Biden wasn't calling any shots over the past 4 years but they had blind faith in his administration. They want to believe the MSM, the CDC, the Party (Democracy is at Risk!) and anyone who questions it is a right wing conspiracy...

Are you implying that because this home had multiple reductions and still hasn't sold.. that reducing prices won't help it sell?? I don't know the neighborhood but could it be there simply isn't demand at this price for that home? I get not wanting to lower your price and if you are in a...

That's the thing! They hate Trump so much that they can't (or refuse) to see all the issues in the Blue party.
