    Straight up uninstalled the app when he said it. Too late dipshit.

    Never accept a salesman or CEO apology or “explanation” for bad choices.

    They’re only sorry you stopped using/paying them. They aren’t sorry for their words, actions, or intentions.

      This just means he’ll switch as soon as the technology matures and it’s not obvious

      Eat the rich

    Way too late, what a fucking dork loser. Hope the business crashes and burns (although we all know it won’t)!

    He added, “No one is expected to navigate this shift alone. We’re developing workshops and advisory councils, and carving out dedicated experimentation time to help all our teams learn and adapt.”

    No one except the people whose jobs he’s already eliminated. But they were just contractors, not real people, right Luis?
