"9-9-6 culture" listed as an advantage.

Sometimes I wonder if these people read back what they just wrote and think about how some of these statements look. If you do 9-9-6 for 3 months because otherwise your company will go bankrupt, then fair enough, desperate times call for desperate measures... but if it's a "company culture", then you're a fucking exploitative scumbag, plain and simple.
You see a lot of devs complaining about "crunch time" in the games industry, they're very vocal about that, and while I understand that's an issue too, people (and by people I mean serious journalists) need to focus on Elon because this shit has gone unchecked for way too long and affects vastly more workers given the size of his companies.
Regardless of how you feel about tipping culture we're not talking about the average person nor are we talking about the average *experience*. The dude is worth north of $100bn, and is making nearly $10k per minute![0]. Someone who cannot spend his wealth. Someone who'd have to spend tens of millions of dollars every single day just to stop his wealth from growing. Someone who makes money faster than he can throw hundred dollar bills handfuls at a time.
We're not talking about anything normal here because no one here *literally* makes thousands of dollars in the time it takes to wipe their ass. You can become poor, he would need an act of god to do so.
We can have a conversation about tipping and how much everyone hates it, but to ignore the fact that we're talking about someone with this kind of money is... ludicrous[1]. Throwing down a hundred bucks means literally nothing to the man. It is not even what a penny is worth to most of you. He's not you and framing the discussion this way is obtuse. Rage on tipping, I don't give a fuck and I'll probably join you. He's not "sticking it to the man" or "standing up for his values" he *is*" the man. He's playing an important role in creating this machine you're raging against. I just don't understand any of you

[1] FWIW, I hate tipping too. Fuck the till based tips with the ever increasing percentages. I frequently click 0. But fuck it man, I'm a grad student. Still, if I'm a regular somewhere and they are giving me special service, I'm gonna throw a few dollars into the tip jar. Tipping culture or not they're going out of their way for me and I should show gratitude in some way (you can also do by other means)Back to the topic at hand: Tipping is a ridiculous notion that the wealthy can see through, while the rest of us are too brainwashed to objectively analyze
Though his pondering of 'why do companies use third party support systems instead of rolling their own' gave his age away :)
I mean if the linked page didn't include the information, sure asking is fine.
What metric are you using to come to the conclusion that OpenSearch is the more valuable brand?
