Might be! Not the way I'd approach it, but as a joke service, if it works it works.

Fun idea. I wonder why the rejection messages are repeated so often in the "reasons" file. "I truly value our connection, and I hope my no doesn't change that." shows up 45 times. Seems like most of the rejections a

If you believe "freedom of choice is a very important thing", you shouldn't have written your comment the way you did -- stripped of all detail and purely negative, as an attempt to make the decision for the readers. Instead,

Thanks, I appreciate the comment! I'm certain that my goal is not to work in a specific language, but to bring a long-time idea to life, and ideally minimize the amount of avoidable headaches along the way. You're probably right t

What they said is "you get less money" and "fire half the people". One of those you can literally not do anything about. I'm not sure how to fire people but do it in the way is the way "I want to".

You can't "not do" getting a budget cut. They just give you less money. I'm also not sure how to just... not fire people. Sure, you can delay it a week or two. Okay. Then what? Get fired for non-compliance? That seems ab
