Wow, losing your job is already painful enough, but I can't even imagine the trauma of also facing losing the life you've built in this country on top of that. 90% of immigrant layoffs being H-1B holders is a staggering statistic.

These types of things are so frustrating as they go against the core ethos of cryptocurrency. This announcement from Greyscale has tones of big banks and it's scary to see the crypto industry to trend this way so quickly. On the other

It's interesting because I don't know if it's possible for anything to truly replace Twitter. I think what will happen is people will splinter off into online forums where they feel most comfortable based on the level of mode

I completely agree that this is a necessary strategy to fight climate change. I still fail to see, however, that this alone will be able to undo/counteract the effects that giant corporations that extract fossil fuels and pollute our a

It's encouraging and refreshing to see a tech company considering the humanity of their employees and thinking long-term with hiring decisions. It's painful to see how many people are having their worlds turn upside down due to ri

I'd say pretty good... there is no slowing of the fire hose of scandal and ruthlessness coming out of that place.
