What a blunder by Anthropic. We'll see what openclaw turns into and if it sticks around, but still a huge and rare blunder by anthropic

What are the chances they actually have the license to use that Justice song for their trailer?

I feel like instead of constantly releasing these preview versions with different dates attached they should just add a patch version and bump that.

> Employment relationships and tradeoffs are negotiated at the time of hiring. Abruptly changing the terms in the middle with no re-negotiation is unfair.

Concur that the employer has to behave within the confines of the contract. If not, that's a contract violation and they should pay dearly. Is it the case that they are violating contractual terms? Or are they operating within the flexibility offered by the contract signed by both parties?

Whether they have violated the contract, like all of law is up to interpretation; Most likely, given Amazon's large team of lawyers, I'm sure they could get away with almost anything.

> Because saying "you can keep your job if you uproot your life" isn't a fair choice.

Surely an employer and employee are free to choose the employment terms and when the terms are deemed unacceptable to either, they can part ways?

If you're a top notch Amazon engineer, for example, and you don't want to uproot your life it would be fairly easy to find another job that is more suitable, don't you think? All employment relationships have tradeoffs.

Employment relationships and tradeoffs are negotiated at the time of hiring. Abruptly changing the terms in the middle with no re-negotiation is unfair. Sure, employees are free to leave and find another job, but with a layoff an employee has many benefits such as severance that are offered, where as in this case there are none. Instead of laying off people, should Amazon be able to just reduce their salary to 0, then say they're free to resign if they're not happy with it?

Before the flood of remote work die-hards start to flood this thread I want to implore you to spend that energy making better tools for remote collaborating.

It’s been 3 years since we started social distancing and exactly nothing is different today vs then.

We are still stuck in Notion, Zoom, and Slack. The unlucky ones are on MS Teams.

Remote learning is terrible for most people, remote training is similar. Ad hoc collaboration is still high friction, dev environments are highly local (where’s figma for web dev?)

Some of you are highly skilled and use these existing tools optimally but you don’t have the elevation to see that huge swaths of the workforce are struggling.

As if RTO solves this at all. Lots of teams are distributed across the many hubs. Amazon is basically asking a large number of its employees to commute hours into the office, or move across the country, just to sit on chime/slack all day anyway.

> Agreeing to negotiate or compromise itself legitimates the strategy of refusing to pass the debt ceiling.

And defaulting is somehow better than that?

Yes. I would prefer gov. shutdown over republicans getting to have any say in anything.

Lmao this engine is down 6.9% for the year, when literally it's as simple as just buying some puts.
