This view just hits different 🌍 @Astro_Christina and @astro_reid take a moment to look back at Earth as they continue deep into space toward the Moon.

Seguramente has visto esta primera foto. Es Anna Lee Fisher y fue la primera madre en viajar al espacio. space.com/36831-astronau… La foto se publicó en la revista @LIFE en 1985. Uno de los personajes de For All Mankind está basado en ella. Las dos madres y casadas con astronauta.

I remixed @Replit’s ad… using Agent 4 Animation and @runwayml - what y’all think? 🎬

Pues parece que Jack se aplica su medicina: x.com/jack/status/20… Jack despide a 4.000 empleados. Block pasa de tener 10.000 empleados a 6.000. Eso sí, lo explica con total honestidad en una nota interna que comparte públicamente: - No lo hacen porque la empresa esté en problemas. El negocio va bien: los beneficios crecen, cada vez tienen más clientes y la rentabilidad mejora. - El motivo real es que las herramientas de inteligencia (IA) que están creando y usando, combinadas con equipos más pequeños y más planos (sin tantas capas de jefes), permiten trabajar de una forma completamente nueva. - Esta forma de trabajar está acelerándose muy rápido y cambia fundamentalmente lo que significa construir y dirigir una empresa. - Tuvo dos opciones: hacer recortes lentos y graduales durante meses o años, o ser sincero y hacerlo de golpe ahora. Eligió la segunda opción porque los recortes repetidos destruyen la moral, la concentración y la confianza. - Ofrece una indemnización muy generosa a los afectados: 20 semanas de sueldo + 1 semana extra por cada año trabajado, equity hasta finales de mayo, 6 meses de seguro médico, los dispositivos de la empresa y 5.000 dólares extra para la transición (o equivalente según el país). - A los que se van: les agradece y les dice que no es por su culpa, que construyeron lo que es la empresa hoy. - A los que se quedan: les pide que construyan con él una empresa donde la inteligencia (IA) esté en el centro de todo: cómo trabajan, cómo crean y cómo sirven a los clientes. Incluso los clientes podrán construir sus propias funciones usando las capacidades de Block.

we're making @blocks smaller today. here's my note to the company. #### today we're making one of the hardest decisions in the history of our company: we're reducing our organization by nearly half, from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000. that means over 4,000 of you are being asked to leave or entering into consultation. i'll be straight about what's happening, why, and what it means for everyone. first off, if you're one of the people affected, you'll receive your salary for 20 weeks + 1 week per year of tenure, equity vested through the end of may, 6 months of health care, your corporate devices, and $5,000 to put toward whatever you need to help you in this transition (if you’re outside the U.S. you’ll receive similar support but exact details are going to vary based on local requirements). i want you to know that before anything else. everyone will be notified today, whether you're being asked to leave, entering consultation, or asked to stay. we're not making this decision because we're in trouble. our business is strong. gross profit continues to grow, we continue to serve more and more customers, and profitability is improving. but something has changed. we're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company. and that's accelerating rapidly. i had two options: cut gradually over months or years as this shift plays out, or be honest about where we are and act on it now. i chose the latter. repeated rounds of cuts are destructive to morale, to focus, and to the trust that customers and shareholders place in our ability to lead. i'd rather take a hard, clear action now and build from a position we believe in than manage a slow reduction of people toward the same outcome. a smaller company also gives us the space to grow our business the right way, on our own terms, instead of constantly reacting to market pressures. a decision at this scale carries risk. but so does standing still. we've done a full review to determine the roles and people we require to reliably grow the business from here, and we've pressure-tested those decisions from multiple angles. i accept that we may have gotten some of them wrong, and we've built in flexibility to account for that, and do the right thing for our customers. we're not going to just disappear people from slack and email and pretend they were never here. communication channels will stay open through thursday evening (pacific) so everyone can say goodbye properly, and share whatever you wish. i'll also be hosting a live video session to thank everyone at 3:35pm pacific. i know doing it this way might feel awkward. i'd rather it feel awkward and human than efficient and cold. to those of you leaving…i’m grateful for you, and i’m sorry to put you through this. you built what this company is today. that's a fact that i'll honor forever. this decision is not a reflection of what you contributed. you will be a great contributor to any organization going forward. to those staying…i made this decision, and i'll own it. what i'm asking of you is to build with me. we're going to build this company with intelligence at the core of everything we do. how we work, how we create, how we serve our customers. our customers will feel this shift too, and we're going to help them navigate it: towards a future where they can build their own features directly, composed of our capabilities and served through our interfaces. that's what i'm focused on now. expect a note from me tomorrow. jack
