Ok sure but eggs are still $3 something at whole foods

by tempsy 4y ago
I go to Whole Foods all the time, and yes their own brand of eggs really is that price. The egg inflation scare is being largely exaggerated. IMO what is different now vs a few years ago is there's a lot more high end organic pasture r

I went to the Starbucks Reserve in NYC and got a coffee thinking it’d be a regular drip and it ended up being $8-$9

I actually think this is a really interesting case. Reddit moderation is absolutely horrendous and subreddit mods have near complete power even when they go off the rails and start banning people for unsubstantiated reasons. There is no rec

This is a pretty silly take. So all these tech companies who've laid people off are wrong and it's company specific issues? Don't think so.

Not sure what you mean. Feel free to look at the background of all the big hires they've made. It's lots of Ivy League/Google/LinkedIn/Banking/Consulting people.

Coinbase seems to have from the very beginning overindexed on "resume" hires and not people who actually care about crypto eg Ivy League/Google/TradFi hires.

this just sounds like stripe will handle some of the payment processing volume for digital purchases doesn’t sound like it’s a replacement for the amazon pay button at all

didn’t say that being a high performer meant you were protected from layoffs…just that high variable pay is a consequence of at will employment system

what evidence do you need? unionization normalizes pay across workers. you trade upside for being a “superstar” for job security. it’s not a controversial opinion. tech compensation is not normalized. there’s pay bands but it’s historically

high salaries are only possible because no one is unionized what you’re describing is what if employees were all unionized and had more protections

by tempsy 4y ago
People really don’t seem to understand that the fact employment is at will and people are not unionized is the reason why tech salaries are so high to begin with The concept of being a lifer is very rare. Not many people expect to stay at o

I mean it will be harder to raise capital extensive seed rounds but i'm sure small seed rounds will still be fine. As in I would be really shocked to see a new Uber for X or grocery delivery startup raise tens of millions right now, bu

Budgeting for 18 months of runway doesn't mean "waste money on frivolous things as fast as possible"

by tempsy 4y ago
Well the biggest difference is that the economy was "bad" then but central governments/banks were accommodating. It's "bad" now because central banks are actively making capital more expensive, which makes it h

I’ll assume you know what I mean and just want to argue lol. Majority of Amazon workers are essentially blue collar jobs. This primarily affects salaried corporate workers in towers in Seattle etc. So the impact to those types of jobs is cl

by tempsy 4y ago
This is a silly way to look at it. A large number of the million+ headcount is warehouse. This layoff impacts corporate workers only, so it's a much higher percentage of total corporate workers.

the fact they raised money at a $3B valuation only a year ago shows how insane the 2021 market was https://techcrunch.com/2022/01/19/lattice-raises-175m-more-a... This is the same marketcap as Asana now, whic

I guess it depends on whether you need to work or want to work. I caught enough of the money printer where I don't have to work but also doing nothing triggers my existential angst more than actually feeling like I'm working towar
