Some company heads hoped return-to-office mandates would make people quit, survey says (arstechnica.com)

Nearly two in five (37 percent) managers, directors, and executives believe their organization enacted layoffs in the last year because fewer employees than they expected quit during their RTO. And their beliefs are well-founded: One in four (25 percent) VP and C-suite executives and one in five (18 percent) HR pros admit they...

Joke's on them, I quit my 11-year job with a company enacting RTO and it fucked them over because I had no backups and very little cross training my entire time there. Ex-employees have told me things went to shit after I left. Good. 😂

Funnily enough I heard that internally they were talking about asking to have me come back as a contractor (with insane pay) but I was so much enjoying my time away from such a toxic company that nothing could make me return. I took a 7-month staycation after quitting just to unfuck how much they fucked up my brain, self-worth, and anxiety

Not shitty at all! Cross training and backups are your employer's problem, not yours. It may hurt you if you go on vacation or are sick, but it hurts them even more when you leave. Job security is job security and I'll take it lol

I started searching for it hoping it wasn't just a joke because I also think it looks gorgeous! Time to go find some brutalist desk sculptures now...

I wouldn't even grace him with "celeb" - you only know anything about Musk because he's a gigantic aloof piece of shit lol

Regarding that last one, my last job actually happened because I was made an offer during the first interview before even doing any sort of technical or programming test...

... of course most of the developers there were awful, so I wish they had.

It's almost as if technical interviews are extremely important in vetting applicants...

Tesla’s in its flop era (www.theverge.com)

When Tesla releases its first quarter earnings this afternoon, the company’s CEO Elon Musk will field the usual questions about new products, new factories, and progress toward its futuristic vision of self-driving cars and robot workers. But Musk will also face increasingly urgent questions about its current state of affairs...

X automatically changed 'Twitter' to 'X' in domain names, breaking legit URLs (mashable.com)

On Monday, it appears X attempted to encourage users to cease referring to it as Twitter and instead adopt the name X. Some users began noticing that posts viewed via X for iOS were changing any references of "Twitter.com" to "X.com" automatically....

Seconded - I was playing with this last week - the most basic model is hilariousy "bad" and the larger 30GB models are OK but kill my RAM and take forever to respond. I mean it's not "bad" because frankly LLMs are like magic to me and I'm grateful they even exist at the level they do, but not up to the level that OpenAI is at right now.

Very promising - excited to see that LLMs aren't solely locked behind paywalls and I can't wait to see where some of these go in the next few years!
