Imagine ... 8000 workers at the company doing as much damage as they can. Fucking up software, deleting backups, luigiing EOs, accounting just transferring the company's finances to all of the workers.
It would be the most beautifully orchestrated chaos in centuries.
Having a hard time imagining 8000 tech Bros working for one of the worst companies to ever exist will find it in themselves To become radical all of a sudden.
In my 25 year career as a programmer, a majority of my coworkers did that kind of stuff just by showing up.
Hey, I fed your comments on my AI-generated MR into my AI, and it said it fixed it, but it didn't change the code at all. Can you just approve it anyway?
Well generally the moment these workers know they're redundant they no longer have the ability to do any of those things.
Does Zuckerberg not walk the Earth like the rest of us?
Eh I'm sure they kinda know beforehand, but everyone chooses themselves. There might be one or two free radicals in there, but most people are going to be afraid of career implications, legal problems, or both.
The best thing about Zuckerberg is that he has no foresight or strategy that isn't dog shit. I expect him to make wrong decision after wrong decision and to follow the sunk cost all the way down. I hope so anyway.
He has no vision.
