@melissawm from where I stand it looks a lot like a bet on trump winning

@melissawm @arclight Given that DEI teams were bad even at pretending to care, I have a hard time feeling that this is much of a loss in a structural sense

@melissawm this fucking outlet calling DEI initiatives "sometimes controversial" lmao. they're only controversial to one crowd, fellas. that's like saying mixed race dating is "sometimes controversial"

@melissawm all branches have been renamed from master to main so their mission is complete

@melissawm It's to synergize the cost centres and break silos to optimize the KPIs.

@melissawm @graydon It sounds like to Microsoft, DEI is a zero-interest phenomenon: it's only to be done when money is free.

To see it very simplified: So companies are preparing for a Trump autocracy and getting preemptively rid of "woke" topics.
