    In an effort to lift everybody’s spirits, Zuckerberg offered to host a company-wide hackathon an attempt at a lighthearted diversion that landed with a thud among employees.

    lmao “Hey, you guys wanna work more, but ‘for fun’?”

    if you are still working at meta, you are there for the money, even tho it’s one of the most harmful companies in the world for our society and our planet. If your morale is low because some coworkers got fired, well, fuck you. You are part of the cancer of this planet, so if you all get laid off and meta is burned to the ground, I won’t be happier.

    How can their spirits be crushed when he told them to be happy?

      When they would need the spirit in order to be happy, but some of the spirit isn’t in there anymore

    a buffet of HR-solutionism like resilience training, pulse surveys, and the dreaded team-building exercise.

          Thanks!

          A big reason for me is that people can tell who the source is more easily, instead of seeing a generic Yahoo link. If someone is blocking or flagging a particular domain through their app / front-end, then it won’t work for a yahoo link.

          Also while I don’t think Yahoo is doing something illegal, my gut says that these articles are harming the smaller news orgs. When Yahoo/MSN publishes the full article, the user likely doesn’t notice who the actual news org is, likely doesn’t go to the real news orgs website, the news org has a harder time building a brand / reputation, and over time they might become even more dependent on Yahoo to stay afloat. A lot of the time when I look up a story, the yahoo page ranks above the actual original source, and that feels wrong to me
