schestowitz[TR2]India government for years has publicly communicated mass incentives for execs taking over any global corporation and bringing jobs to Indians at home and abroad. US and EU will not stand up for their workers or corporations. Any one who does is called names and smeared. India government doesnt care about the stock or working environment of anyone else’s business. They only protect their own.Aug 13 08:20

schestowitz[TR2]@be In February 2026 we had to pretend to find “low performers” who were then shown the door in April so…yeah. It did. I’m sure we’ll pretend to find more “low performers” soon and then they’ll be out a couple of months later. It’s an entirely pathetic company at this point.Aug 13 08:20

schestowitz[TR2]@xx IBM is the best workplace in the industry. Being handsomely paid a sizeable salary, bonuses and RSUs. Preparing and presenting some slides, once a week.Aug 13 08:20
schestowitz[TR2]I am afraid, there might be no other company that can provide the same luxury. Maybe, changing career is required.Aug 13 08:20

schestowitz[TR2]@Xw. Given that “next step” is active, I can’t see a voluntary being offered. It’s all about costs and older employees are viewed as costly liabilitiesAug 13 08:20

schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p>The total Linux kernel tree recently blew past the 43 million lines of code milestone. Although developers continuously clean up old code, such as removing the ancient i486 processor support, the kernel continues to grow rapidly. Much of this size comes from modern hardware drivers. Specifically, the AMD graphics driver (AMDGPU) alone accounts for over 6.3 million lines of code. </p>Aug 13 08:53
