Apple announces its 4th round of layoffs (this one is only 100 people) but . .

MS Copilot conforms what I heard on Bloomberg TV earlier.
Apple layoff rounds:

  • 4 in 2024 (so far)
  • 2 others total in all Apple history.

A few charts will follow for context

Apple and the rest of Big Tech are basically a system of state-supported quasi-monopolies who do the government’s bidding for tasks that would be illegal for the government to do directly.

Layoffs at Apple may be bad for Apple but good for the rest of the country.

Well, at least Apple has a pregnant-man emoji.

That’s gotta count for something.

I completely concur with your statement (although I am greatly skeptical of the article you linked.)
