What kind if software? To me it sounds like they just focus on firing probationary employees, of which there are many. After promotion for excellent performance, one becomes probationary again.

Ah. Those guys. They made it over from Twitter I guess because only the tech bros are still left over there. Block is the only way to treat them.

💗 You are too kind.
