I wish I had an extension allowing me to upvote/downvote websites and showing the karma ratio of the website when I navigate to one of their article.

It might not change anything but at least I would feel that I was able to sanction the website for their misleading title.

Lazy journalism. And also lazy framing.

Lazy framing and Ars is, sadly, an extremely common combination.

and "with a focus on workers who are responsible for the "construction and upkeep" of Apple's retail locations and other physical facilities."

Agree that the title is misleading. The article at least has the good grace to correct itself in its subtitle and also quite quickly within the text.

See that seems especially egregious to me. It’s proof you know the headline is terrible.

(Of course it could be that wasn’t the writer’s original title)

It’s not very common for Apple to lay anyone off, this could’ve been a decent story. Honestly the rest of the article is perfectly fine.

It’s just the framing.

The framing could’ve been something like “this is what it looks like when a company does layoffs right“. After all if you’re laying off a handful of people instead of 20,000 you clearly did a better job at not over-hiring.

Was expecting this, since every other article listed the numbers. Congrats, Apple, on excellent management during this challenging time.

>all within the company's "corporate retail teams," with a focus on workers who are responsible for the "construction and upkeep" of Apple's retail locations and other physical facilities.

Can those even be considered "Tech industry" jobs either?

I'm not sure a single word of the title is accurate besides Apple.
