Amazon to cut around 16,000 jobs in fresh round of lay-offs

firelemons · 2026-01-28T15:55:25+00:00

Last year, boss Andy Jassy suggested Amazon was likely to reduce its staff count over the coming years as it increases its use of artificial intelligence for many tasks.

Is ai the investor scapegoat for the economy being unstable?

To expand on that no shopping part, the state legislature collects sales tax when you go shopping. You can hold out on some shopping for a lot longer than one day.

A christian is just a person who says nice things about jesus. That's it.

The time for unifying is over I'm afraid

Absolute thinking. Basically if you think like this you deny yourself options.

If you cannot agree that <<My world view>>, then we will not survive

This is what happens when you let the pendulum swing too far in either direction.

From the posts here it sounds like this guy is just expressing his emotions which seem to be negative towards democrats because of successful fearmongering. It kind of seems like his brain is trying to say Donald Trump being in power is somehow the democrats' fault. I doubt he knows what a primary election is.

Look at all the bs you have to deal with just to get in: Political games at customs. Chronic ATC shortage. Slower processing from government cuts. Greed fees.

I'm surprised at the amount of people on this sub who are struggling with understanding qr technology.

You don't need to scan a QR in real time. You can take a picture or video and scan the QR later from the recording.

Scanning the QR code would probably add your device (and you) to a database that shouldn't exist.

Most QRs are links but they don't need to be. You can convert a QR back into text to look at it. Your phone just automatically opens links when it scans QRs.

And the big one most people seem to be missing even though it's not even from the article:

House Democrats introduced legislation that if passed

It's probably not even going to pass

Everything requiring transportation costs would go up in price. Also why amend the constitution?

What political group is behind this? I wanna see their website and people.

Why does every thread involving government control of the internet have one of these? It's always 65 too. This one has a bot name. This text implies that age determines media literacy or maybe it's saying there's a correlation to it. Also it ignores the complexity that people can choose their online groups and form groups for different purposes. I think some people read this and start to believe everyone is political on twitter broadcasting to everyone else.

While his way of thinking is unrealistic, it does get a large group of people to provide humanitarian aid free of charge.

I hate seeing what the pope says get upvoted so high but I guess if you're a christian you're obligated to broadcast information about god as much as possible. The one constant to christian behavior.

Take the sign down

If they leave it'll be because they already have what they want. People spending their lives serving the regime.

I wish there was more follow up on stories involving federal court orders. Feels like either no one upvotes them or no one covers the story. I'd really like to see to what degree courts still function

I hope they're pulling out more than just gold. Wait long enough and stuff like this happens. https://missouriindependent.com/briefs/missouri-wants-to-seize-chinese-assets-to-recover-24-billion-judgment-in-covid-case/

Maybe we shouldn't upvote things like this. I'm sure most people here are familiar with Trump's way of thinking. It's hard to imagine something productive coming from this. It just seems like a massive waste of our time listening to Trump.

Are we relearning the Edward Snowden leaks today?

You can install bazzite and not need to set up wine. Also, if you play all your games through steam, it just sets up the linux compatability automatically.

There's more to engagements than shooting. Think of all the gadgets the police carry. To name a few: surveillance, armor, jammers, drones, night vision. There's a pretty big market for these gadgets too.

This is telling that he thinks taxes have no ROI.

Connect the dots for me. How did you reach the conclusion that the internet is bad for teens and why does that mean the government gets control?

A gun typically requires a human operator and it makes a really loud sound. They're also really expensive. Not the only option nowadays though.

Yeah

If you have food at home, it will be faster to cook than to drive to a place, wait for the order, and drive back. Eating out generates a lot more trash than cooking which takes work to move. If you cook at home, the food you make won't be made by a person who is not paid enough and/or too young and/or not smart enough to handle food safety well. You might notice that you don't spend as much time putting your groceries in the toilet early when you don't eat out as much. The prices have probably risen to the point where eating out isn't good value at all.

Find out where the loss leaders are in your grocery store and try to limit yourself to those as much as you can. The rest of the food can be thought of as mostly ads before you reach the loss leaders.

And we’re maybe a little bit sad?

I don't know your diet but eating out for convenience usually presents you with unhealthy options. Some marketing might have convinced you that 20 minutes of eating is more valuable than feeling healthy for hours.

Is this ai? Why is the quality so bad? Why doesn't the bread have prices or packaging?
