I haven't seen any of this in my state. California isn't the whole world

Bullshit. People get fired for making mistakes all the time, and this was a colossal fuckup. Instead of firing the people who fucked up they're punishing employees.

And lol at the pathetic war and climate change excuses. My company tried to pull the same bs explanation. There's always some war going on, Ukraine was invaded during the pandemic and that didn't stop these companies from going on a hiring spree back then.

Wake up, it's all a lie for PR. The only thing they give a shit about is servicing investor demands, and investors are a mob who don't know anything about running any individual business.

These execs will never admit that they were so stupid that they actually thought the pandemic demand level would be permanent, or that they were such a shill that they did know but overhired anyway because that's what investors yelled at them to do.

You have no idea what you're talking about. You can absolutely increase someone's workload, always. It doesn't mean shit will get done, but you can absolutely give them more responsibilites.

And lol at your last sentence. Meta had to hire back some of the people they laid off. It's hilarious that you think layoffs have anything to do with performance. They don't. The performance angle is a lie that the vain tell themselves because they think everyone else is lazy. It could never happen to them, except it will, because these layoffs were about cost only.

Cherry picking zoom makes for a terrible example. They were a uniquely positioned startup. Most of these companies were just jumping on the hiring bandwagon because that's what investors expected them to do, and now they're also laying people off because that's what investors want. It has fuck all to do with any kind of economic reality.

These execs are the ones who should be getting fired but our economy isn't run by rational actors, it's run by investors who only give a fuck about the next quarter's profits.

That isn't how crime reports work. Your comment got downvoted because it's stupid.

It makes sense from a pure UX perspective. But of course the real goal of GitHub is to make money, and their paying customers are mostly corporate entities using it for enterprise development. Unless those companies decide that a download button/better release feature is desirable, it's not likely to happen.

Most corporations tie GitHub into their own build system so such a feature isn't likely to be considered useful. They pay for GitHub to reduce development costs, which is why GitHub spends so much effort on analytics and the dev experience instead of open source/public users.

90% of this tech was rebuilt for the SLS/Orion and significantly improved on, and the next 10% involves the lunar lander and is coming within a couple years.

It's not only possible, it's literally being done right now.

They didn't use guerrilla tactics against massed formations. They used them against the British supply lines, and they were effective at it.

This just in, it's a fake war if it doesn't meet my weirdly politicized definition of warfare.

Ok but doesn't explain why they're all standing straight up

The SLS + Orion is capable of it

You could have both, I just found Kodi to be a pain to use and set up. But one advantage of Kodi is that I believe it already supports streams like that. With Jellyfin you might have to do some magic. Kodi is more feature rich than jellyfin in general so if you can get it to work well, you could just have Kodi instead of both.

But I'm not sure on this topic. It's probably best to consult the docs for both.
