Meta to Layoff 10k Employees

Once I had a manager justify his employment at Palantir by saying he helped troops detect and avoid landmines. Well cool, they still murdered people after getting past the minefield though.

So your take is...soldiers should die to landmines?

My take is to think about what your work accomplishes beyond the surface level.

So do you believe soldiers in Ukraine are “murdering” Russians?

Yeah they are. The Russian soldiers most likely didn't ask to be there either. Obviously a rock and a hard place for Ukrainians.

That being said, Palantir's business with the US government dwarfs any they might have with the Ukrainian army. And last I checked the US is in the business of murdering brown people.
