This phase shift in engineering cultures (it's not just Meta) is going to present some exciting new opportunities. - People leave to start their own ventures - More people leave to join them - We get a sub-culture of innovation with momentum - Break the current technology consolidation phase

This headline is pretty accurate based on Meta folks I’ve been talking with Meta is successfully destroying their formerly standout engineering culture: forcefully assigning standout devs to this unit + the layoffs It makes no rational sense. Hiring from Meta never been easier!

I'm not trying to whitewash bad news. These are real people who are having their souls crushed. I know, I felt it at my last job too. And these products have turned to garbage, through no fault of the product/eng/design people who work on them. But, it does represent new opportunities.
