Re:Oracle Files H-1B Visa Petitions Amid Mass Layoffs on Friday April 03, 2026 @07:34PM (#47633737)
Oracle laid off 12,000 people in India as well. What is this news on about? If all they wanted was cheap labor, why would they fire people in India and then also bring H-1B from overseas and pay them more?

This is just ragebait.

Re:I am lonely will anyone speak to me on Friday December 25, 2020 @01:31AM (#25534711)
Couldn't have said it better myself. I went through something similar. Parents considered most people I would have called as friends not "good enough" and forbid being around them for better part of my childhood. Now, in my 30s I have a few people from work I occasionally hang out with but no one I consider a friend. Haven't much dated either since seems like a chore.

I do wish sometimes that I was normal and had an active social life. Being single/alone at my age is beginning to look weird.
