Does this mean they got rid of directors and VPs? If not, this restructuring is meaningless. Without engineers, nothing is going to get built.

#14Wow this seems really poorly worded. On one hand, the CEO is upbeat about the future and yaks on about strategy and in the same breath says "you're fired". Seems very insensitive. Laying people off isn't the time for a pep talk and ra ra rally on the strategy. IMO if you have to lay people off then the focus should be the people being laid off, nothing else. "Deeply sorry, we did our best to avoid this and we don't s…
The wording is to reassure investors. They don't care about the employees.
If you want to announce layoffs, do so with humility and lots of goodwill to the people that helped build your company, especially when you're announcing on your website for public scrutiny.

#17What does this mean? Netlify is focusing on enterprise architects?
I switched off their platform and onto Cloudflare pages. It’s honestly so much better. Netlify seemed to just… stop.

Then again, I can think of nothing more American than good people suffering under the poor decisions of bad people. That's like our entire history.
All people are inherently good, however all people are inherently social beings. Since capitalism is dominated by humans' relations to capital instead of humans' relations to eachother, the social nature of the human species is repressed, and as such people cannot be their true selves under capitalism.
Capitalists would love nothing more than for you to believe that some of them are good and some of them are bad, which is the guiding narrative behind nearly all capitalist propaganda. In reality, they are humans just like ourselves and the system is to blame.
