You cant make this up:
This week Microsoft offered 60,000 employees buyouts to retire from the company, roughly a quarter of their global workforce. citing AI was going to streamline everything
Today, their Outlook servers are crashing globally 😂
Somewhere at Microsoft, an engineer is working incredibly hard to restore Outlook, completely unaware that millions of office workers are silently rooting against him. I’ve never seen a hero so misunderstood.
To the Microsoft employees desperately trying to bring Outlook back online, please don’t push yourselves too hard. Your health matters more than any deadline. Take a long weekend, relax, and come back Monday feeling refreshed. You’ve worked hard enough this week, and I promise those 400 unread emails aren’t going anywhere.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani officially signed the Community Opportunity to Purchase Act (COPA) into law today.
The bill gives tenants, land trusts, and other vetted community organizations the first right to buy eligible buildings — and thus to decommodify their housing.
Progress isn’t inevitable. It’s fought for and earned.
New York City will now give community organizations the first shot at buying eligible homes — not flippers who are just looking to extract a profit.
This is the largest Opportunity to Purchase program in the nation.
Thank you @CMSandyNurse for your leadership on the COPA bill. Our city’s tenants are stronger because of it.
An 8-year-old girl won a plank competition with 33 minutes, but instead of celebrating her achievement, adults rushed to comfort a boy who came THIRD and threw a tantrum over losing. This is how boys learn entitlement from childhood. No wonder incels can't handle rejection as adults.
⚠️ Peak community policing.
A community outreach officer with the Camden County Police entered a man's backyard, refused to leave, assaulted him, and then reminded everyone what "community outreach" means trespassing.
Nothing builds trust quite like violating it.
Pete Hegseth is a gutless Fox News weekend host who fired a three-star admiral after 35 years and gave her ONE HOUR to leave the Pentagon. No reason. No spine. She's coming back to Washington in January, and he can't fire her this time: https://t.co/HmORNw1uTk
Microsoft has laid off thousands of employees while investing billions in AI. Now Outlook goes down, and everyone is depending on human engineers to get things running again.
It’s interesting how companies keep talking about replacing people until something breaks and they need people to fix it.
A USF professor and nurse from Nigeria has been in ICE custody for 2 months. She no longer appears in the database but might be in Louisiana. She had a protection from removal order/no record. This is inhumane we must get these people out of detention.
