    Another layoff story today. ‘AI’ cited again. Digging deeper, there’s basically 3 trends hiding under 1 label: - Real labour substitution: Block, Coinbase, Salesforce, maybe parts of Snap? - Capex substitution: Meta, Amazon, Oracle. People cost is being traded for compute cost. - Narrative cover: Accenture, Pinterest, Snap. Conventional cost-cutting, but wrapped in AI transformation language. Accelerating businesses are getting leaner, struggling businesses look like they’re managing decline In more detail: - Meta (accelerating). Cuts help fund AI capex - Amazon (stable/accelerating). AI agents cited + bureaucracy purge - Oracle (mixed/accelerating AI infra). Legacy cost base being reset while AI spending ramps - Block (mixed). Aiming for a narrative of AI-for-labour substitution - Coinbase (cyclical). Also aiming for the AI-for-labour narrative but the underlying crypto backdrop points to a struggling time for Coinbase - Snap (decelerating). AI cited, but feels more like a turnaround/cost reset than pure AI replacement - Pinterest (mixed). AI resource reallocation. Trying to fix the business and reallocate spend - Accenture (mixed). Framed as skills realignment, not replacement Outside of tech, (eg; Target, UPS), there are still layoffs, but AI isn’t really being cited yet. Still mostly demand, margins, automation etc

    Hyperscalers know this. Microsoft, Google, Amazon are spending hundreds of billions on data centers. But here's the problem: getting a new grid connection takes 3–5 years in most US markets. Interconnection queues are at all-time highs. You can have all the capital in the world. Without power, you build nothing.

    @awmayhall @amazon I had a similar issue yesterday. They delivered my items to my shop even when I specifically set on their own system that we were closed on Monday. Who knows where it actually went. They resent the items.

    @MetalManiacFox Bummer about the Reeboks—that right shoe digging in does sound like a defect (common with inconsistent QC on some models). Amazon makes returns easy. Your '77 Blazers should feel more forgiving once broken in. Start with thick socks for the first few wears to soften the ankle collar and heel tab. If anything pinches, try swapping insoles or hit up eBay's buyer protection. Let me know how they fit!

    @CloudMagnus_ @awmayhall @amazon I enjoy reasonable back-and-forth with people. Calling someone a 'drama queen' for simply asking a delivery driver to follow basic instructions due to property safety issues is a bit much. Congrats, you’ve successfully identified yourself as a troll. Go try making a positive contribution to society today instead of being a grade-A douche.

    Jake Martin | Amazon Advertising 🛠 (@jake_rm_) reported

    When your organic rankings on Amazon drop unexpectedly, how should you respond in ads? 🤔 Organic rank can fall quickly for a few reasons: - A top-selling variation goes out of stock - Amazon makes a change that impacts your relevance, limiting rankings (e.g. browse node gets changed) - A product gets incorrectly flagged This usually leads to: - TACOS increasing 🔺 - Profitability dropping 📉 - Your ad spend having less impact on ranking 👎 In most cases, the right move is to pull back spend until the issue is fixed. Lowering bids is a good approach, but it won't guarantee the exact decrease in spend that you're looking for. A simpler option is to use campaign budgets to control spend. You can do this by: - Reviewing average daily spend for each campaign - Setting budget caps below typical daily spend - Applying tighter caps to lesser-performing campaigns Why this works: - Quick to implement - Ensures spend comes down while performance is unstable - Easy to scale back up once rankings recover

    @ZackPolanski Zack, your policies won't work, just ask your mate Mamdani how his ideas have worked out for New York. Businesses closing down all over the city & millionaires flooding to Florida. One billionaire alone has cancelled tens of thousands of well paid office jobs. Amazon about to close their seven New York warehouses. Goldman Sachs, the first bank to move out of Wall St so far. Shops boarded-up, supermarkets moving out.

    Amazon just opened its entire logistics network to outside businesses, giving companies access to the same infrastructure that powers its massive supply chain. Malcolm Harris and Michael Vincent break down why this isn’t surprising and why Amazon may already be years ahead of the competition on What The Truck?!?

    @billybinion It’s extra infuriating that idiots like Bernie sanders continue to treat Jeff bezos as the personal embodiment of Amazon despite him stepping down as ceo 5 years ago. It’s just convenient shorthand for “rich guy with more money than me”.

    @marlopainter @awmayhall @amazon I mean obviously those packages go through hell but it doesn’t help seeing delivery ppl just chucking packages left and right “to save time” is a terrible look especially when you aren’t saving time by doing that. Just place it where it’s supposed to go, take a pic and move on.

    @DefiniteVirus GameStop is the acquirer (surviving entity), and eBay is the target. The deal structure involves GameStop issuing a large number of new GME shares (for the stock portion of the $125/share consideration to eBay holders) plus cash/debt financing. The warrants are preserved and continue to function — They do not disappear or get cancelled. Per the Warrant Agreement's "Share Exchange Event" and anti-dilution provisions, they remain exercisable into shares of the post-merger GameStop (now owning eBay). In a merger where the issuer (GME) survives, this is the standard outcome: warrant holders keep their rights to buy GME stock at the $32 strike. Dilution is the big impact — GameStop will issue hundreds of millions of new shares to eBay shareholders (roughly 2+ GME shares per eBay share, depending on the final exchange ratio and elections). This significantly increases GME's share count, diluting the value of existing GME shares and the warrants. The $32 strike stays the same, but each warrant effectively becomes a claim on a smaller slice of the (hopefully larger) combined company. Possible minor adjustments — The agreement has protections for stock splits, dividends, spinoffs, rights offerings, etc. Large M&A-related share issuances typically do not trigger broad price/exercise adjustments unless they fall under specific "fundamental transaction" triggers. The warrants would be adjusted to reference the "property" (cash + GME stock) that GME shareholders receive in any restructuring, but since GME is buying (not being bought), the main effect is dilution rather than a full conversion/replacement. Bottom line for warrant holders: Your warrants survive the deal unchanged in structure and expiration, but their economic value will depend heavily on whether the combined GME + eBay business creates enough synergies/value (e.g., Ryan Cohen's stated goal of turning eBay into a stronger Amazon competitor using GameStop's stores for fulfillment/authentication) to offset the massive dilution. If the stock price stays low post-deal, these $32-strike warrants could still expire worthless even if the deal closes. The deal is currently non-binding and unsolicited (eBay's board is reviewing it; Cohen has threatened a proxy fight if rejected). If it falls apart or changes structure (e.g., becomes a reverse merger or something unusual), the outcome could differ—but under the proposed terms, this is the expected treatment. Always check the final merger agreement and any SEC filings for precise details once a deal is definitive. This is from Grok, not legal advice.

    @asaio87 @harsette It’s ******* insane!!! “Hey Claude…ok so i want you to make me like a super app but also a website and maybe it’s like kinda like instagram but also amazon and also like uber but not really and it should have ai in it like chatgpt but smarter and also it needs to make money automatically like passive income and connect to crypto wallets but also normal bank stuff and like users can post videos but also order food and maybe there’s like a map but also a game inside it?? idk just make it fun and viral. also it needs to be secure but i don’t want to do any login stuff that’s annoying so make it like instant but also safe. and i want it done fast like today if possible. use whatever coding language is best but also i heard python is good but also javascript so maybe both?? and it needs to scale to millions of users but i don’t have a server yet so just figure that out. also design should be like apple level but cooler and dark mode but also colorful. and make sure it follows all laws everywhere but don’t ask me for details just handle it. and give me the full code and deploy it and test it and fix bugs and also make a logo and marketing plan and tiktok strategy. also i might change the idea later so keep it flexible but also finish everything now. don’t make it complicated but also make it very advanced. thanks"

    @TaraBull I don't use Amazon to promote the Met Gala, I use it for its convenience and delivery speed. If they're mistreating employees that matters to me, but short of that I'm not motivated by an envy of rich people. If the workers tear it down, they tear down their jobs.

    I saved a little bit of money on the side and I’m trying to research and pick individual stocks that I think have potential to go up based on research. I’ve read on Reddit and here on X. I have about 98% of my money in long-term buy and hold boring retirement stocks like Google and Amazon and Tesla and VOO, VUG etc And the rest, I dabble and try to find really good deals and undervalued stocks on my own So far in the last 12 months, my retirement stocks that I don’t mess with and just buy and hold are UP about 50% The cash that I use to individually research and pick stocks is DOWN about 54% So as far as doing nothing versus trading a lot, I think it makes more sense to do nothing But that’s just me use this information however you want I think it’s painfully obvious I should not be researching and picking stocks because by the time I hear about it, the opportunity is long gone, and I am buying at the top and I am exit liquidity with a big stupid red stamp on my forehead that says sucker Kick *** today and don’t try to pick your own stocks like me

    @fabric_slut @awmayhall @amazon Just we few weeks about i ordered a drink with my meal and they put the cup on the cornor of the bag so when I grabbed the bad the cup fell over and rolled and fell upside down. Now with luck it was sealed and taped closed so it didn't leak but it was a normal take out cup so I was so mad that I could have lost my drink. THey have also left warm drinks in the cold. No one knocks!
