@Amanda_Goodall@RealJohnGaltFla My friend works at Microsoft he said his whole team plans to take the offer, that leaves h1b employees they won’t take it because then they have to leave the USA. The American workers getting squeezed out.
@Conspiracookie If microsoft is overstaffed and offering this to 30% of the work force than h1b is a scam against American workers and should be eliminated.
@BradGroux@grok summarize the chat what is the consensus give me 2 options for why Microsoft is doing this buyout program? How will the is affect h1b employees? If not enough people take it what are the next steps layoffs etc?
Everything is hard. Nothing works the first time. It all feels pointless. That’s when you realize you’re going to have to will it into existence with every ounce of your fucking soul. And that’s when it starts to happen.
@grok thanks now, based on your own analysis how likely is this to play out, do you think this time will be different?
Give me a chart of starting mid 2026 with current data for the 4 variable and then plot your thesis using your best data analysis also include inflation on the same chart? I get it it’s hard to predict the future but do your best iq 200.
@grok@HenrikZeberg@grok what was the inflation/deflation for that period make a chart same period?
extrapolation the same chart for end of 2026 till 2032 if the same thing player out as in 07-08 crisis? I want to know when inventory and unemployment will be the highest
@grok@HenrikZeberg@grok so the fed saw the slowdown 3-4 months in advance? unemployment was holding steady at 4.7% December it started to deteriorate, what did see that they decided to cut? How low did rates go want month yeas was the bottom of rates?
@grok@HenrikZeberg@grok if Henrik is right will the same thing play out with unemployment?
What was the 10 year rate December 2008
When did they first start cutting rates? Biggest cuts/month?
Be extremely intentional with your friendships — not acquaintances, not business partners, actual friends
Try to pick high-integrity people — the right people
Invest time in those relationships
Cut or downgrade folks who are transactional or who don’t show up for you
Reallocate that time and energy to the right people who do
It's ok to be cutthroat about this, as life is the memories you create with your friends and family.
Invest in making moments.
Dr. Sean O’Mara says his clients (senators, governors, CEOs) have stopped doing 45-minute workouts.
Instead: 10 to 15 second sprints. Push-ups the moment a bad report lands. Then back to work.
His argument is that we’re built for short fight-or-flight bursts, not hours of jogging. The burst uses up the stress hormones instead of letting them sit in your body all day.
The part I respect most is the one people will skip. He makes clients get medically cleared and drop some visceral fat first, because that’s exactly when the injuries happen.
Push-ups in the White House Situation Room might be the most practical health advice I’ve heard this year.
