Remarkably - it’s more profitable now. Also, most layoffs don’t cause huge cuts to advertising spend on their platform because of personal spite or political reasons. The product for all intents and purposes as an advertiser is the exact sa

This is exactly right. I work in investment banking and the reason I believe Excel will never go away is because of how easy it is to follow extremely complex financing structures. If I build a financial model, the 60 year old CFO needs to

It won’t be very effective, I agree. But it’s also not likely that the parent comment doesn’t have time to work out at all. My point is that with a dash of optimism we can conquer a lot of obstacles in our life.
