@ms8955a @coexistinc He got jealous of Trump without ever giving him an ounce of respect. That's all this is.
He thinks Trumps a joke, and he should have won the joke republican ticket when he ran a while back.
You can right good comedy from a place of genuine jealously.

@mark_slapinski Today would be the day, considering how closely Trump's actions take into account the news cycle.

@NHDems @ChairmanBuckley Thanks for showing it's not just the national party that is corrupt.

@PoliticalJudo @DJ_CURFEW You can adjust the ratio as you feel, I don't think that there is an official formula... But the company still needs to show improved Opex and tokens can be expensive too

Today we reduced headcount by 22%. The business is the strongest it's ever been. So I think it's important to be direct about what I'm seeing and why.
First, I made this decision and I own it. I did it because the way to operate at the highest level of productivity is changing, and to win the future, ClickUp needs to change with it.
Second, this wasn't about cutting costs. Most savings from this change will flow directly back into the people who stay. We'll be introducing million-dollar salary bands. If you create outsized impact using AI, you'll be paid outside of traditional bands.
Most importantly, I have the deepest gratitude for those affected. We're doing this from a position of strength specifically so we can take care of people properly. Everyone affected receives a package aimed at honoring their contributions and easing the transition.
I only see two options: wait for this to play out gradually in the market or be honest about what I'm seeing and act proactively.
THE 100X ORGANIZATION
The primary change is that we're restructuring around what I call 100x org. The goal is 100x output. The roles required to build at the highest level are fundamentally different than they were a year ago.
Incremental improvements to existing systems won't get us there. We need new ones. That means creating enough disruption to rebuild rather than iterate on what's already broken.
The common narrative is that AI makes everyone more productive. It doesn't. Many of the workflows of today, if left unchanged, create bottlenecks in AI systems.
These roles will evolve. But waiting for that to happen naturally means falling behind now.
The 100x org is actually heavily dependent on people - infinitely more than today. This is only possible with 10x people that have embraced and adopted new ways of working.
THE BUILDERS, AGENT MANAGERS, AND FRONT-LINERS
— THE BUILDERS: 10X ENGINEERS
I don't think most companies have internalized what's actually happening with AI in engineering. The common narrative is that AI makes all engineers more productive. That may be true in isolation, but at an organization level - that is the farthest thing from reality.
Here's what we've validated recently at ClickUp: the great engineers, the ones who can orchestrate, architect, and review, are becoming 100x engineers. They're not writing code. They're directing agents that write code. The skill is judgment.
AI makes the best engineers wildly more productive, and everyone else using AI slows these engineers down.
Think about it - the bottlenecks are (1) orchestration - telling AI what to do, and (2) reviewing - what AI did. Everything is leapfrogged and no longer needed.
So who do you want orchestrating and reviewing code?
And how do you want your best engineers to spend their time?
If your best engineers are spending time reviewing other people's code, then this is inherently an inefficient bottleneck. These engineers can review their agent's code much faster than reviewing human code.
The new world is about enabling your 10x engineers to become 100x.
The wrong strategy is to push every engineer to use infinite tokens. Companies doing this are celebrating 500% more pull requests. But customer outcomes don't match the volume of code being generated.
I call this the great reckoning of AI coding, and every company will face this soon if not already.
More code is just another bottleneck to the best engineers, and ultimately to your company's impact as well.
— THE BUILDERS: 10X PRODUCT MANAGERS
Product management and design roles are merging.
Designers that have customer focus, become more like product managers.
And product managers that have intuition for UX become more like designers.
The bottleneck of user research is gone. It takes us just one mention of an agent to kickoff research and analyze results.
The bottleneck of product <> design iteration is also gone. The product builder iterates on their own, along with agents and skills that ensure alignment with quality and strategy.
Also controversial today - I believe that the wrong strategy is to have your PMs shipping code - that just introduces another bottleneck that the best engineers will waste their time on.
To be clear, PMs should be coding but they should do this in a playground to iterate, validate, and scope. That code should not go to production.
Everything outside of managing systems, orchestrating AI, and reviewing output becomes a bottleneck.
That's why the other roles that are critical along with these are the systems managers (to reduce bottlenecks) along with a bottleneck you can't replace - customer meeting time.
— THE SYSTEM MANAGERS
Ironically, the people that automate their jobs with AI will always have a job. They become owners of the AI systems - agent managers. We have many examples of these people at ClickUp.
The underlying systems in which we operate are absolutely critical to get right. I think most companies are delusional to think they can iterate on existing systems and compete in this new world.
You must create enough disruption so that old systems are deprecated entirely. If there's any definition for 'AI native' that's what it is.
— THE FRONT-LINERS
In a world that will become saturated with AI communication, the human touch will matter more than anything to customers.
This is a bottleneck that you shouldn't replace - even when agents are high enough quality to do video meetings.
One-on-one meeting time with customers is something that shouldn't be automated. The systems around the meetings should be - so that front-liners spend nearly 100% of their time with customers.
REWARDING 100X IMPACT
In a world where companies are able to do so much more with less, where does that excess money go?
In our case, much of the savings in this new operating model will flow directly back to those that enabled it.
We must reward people that create productivity accordingly. This aligns incentives on both sides. Plus, in a world where your best people create 100x impact, you can't afford to lose them.
You should aim to retain these employees for decades. The context they have and their ability to efficiently orchestrate and review will be nearly impossible to replace.
Compensation bands of today should be thrown out the door. We're introducing $1 million cash/year salary bands with a path available to nearly everyone in the company if they produce 100x impact by creating or managing AI systems.
THE FUTURE
Nearly every company will make changes like these. The ones that do it proactively will define what comes next.
The future is not fewer people. It's different work, new roles, and better rewards for those who embrace it. We're already seeing entirely new roles emerge, like Agent Managers, that didn't exist a year ago.
ClickUp is positioning to lead this shift, not just internally, but for our customers too. I've never been more certain about where we're headed.

Former CIA Officer Philip Agee explains why the US🇺🇸 has been waging economic warfare on Cuba🇨🇺 for decades and trying to strangle & overthrow the socialist system:
‘They know that if the Cubans are successful of their example in being able to provide, as a poor country, the best medical care in the third world…it’s a very bad example for the United States.
There is a large mass of people in the US who can look to Cuba and say ‘wow if they can do it on a per capita income of $2K—2.5K, where ours is $22,500 a year, what’s wrong with our system? Maybe we ought to consider an alternative.’ That’s why Sandinista Nicaragua had to be destroyed, that’s why Grenada had to be destroyed.
Because any movement that comes to power with the idea of providing for all the people and escaping the control of the US and its economy, that is bad news for the United States and among the upper circles of power and influence.’

@muhammadshehad2 Maybe instead of lecturing about what activism is you should listen to what the actual activists are saying.

Our job is to unite the many against the few, not the few against the many
November Books published Sally Rooney’s novel into Hebrew in full compliance with BDS guidelines, in partnership with +972 and Local Call. That should have been straightforward. Instead, I'm reading criticism about it.
Translating Rooney’s work does something the Israeli government cannot stomach: it proves, on paper, that BDS is not about “antisemitism” or “throwing Israelis into the sea”, no matter how desperately Netanyahu tries to sell that lie. This small gesture says this movement is for justice and freedom, not hatred and revenge.
Critics claim November Books found a “loophole” or a way to bypass BDS. What’s actually happening is a commitment; getting on board with a Palestinian led program, not skirting it, and demanding others do the same.
Let’s also keep our expectations realistic; most of Israeli society is nowhere near being persuaded of Palestinian rights, and hebrew remains, for Palestinians, the language of oppression; and the timing for a project like this will never be right, least of all during a genocide.
None of that makes the work pointless; culture and narrative are still crucial domains of struggle; dissent inside Israel, however small, is as vital as Jewish diaspora dissent. We have to hold both truths together.
A South African leader once told me that one of the most powerful elements of their Freedom Charter was spelling out clearly to the white Afrikaner oppressor what their future would look like after apartheid.
Mandela’s ANC built alliances with white Afrikaners and white South African Jews, Beyers Naudé, Helen Suzman, André Brink, Max du Preez.
Mandela even acknowledged Afrikaner suffering in the Boer War concentration camps. He said they carried the lived experience of brutal, inhumane oppression, while still calling them out as oppressors. That’s a strategy, not a contradiction.
If translating Rooney’s novel in full compliance with BDS guidelines is not enough, what message are we sending to Israelis who denounce the genocide, the apartheid, Zionism itself?
We’d be telling them exactly what the Israeli government tells them every day: “The Arabs will never like you, no matter what you do. You’re just a useful idiot to them.”
That’s not how you build a successful, inclusive movement. That’s how you build an echo chamber of virtue signaling; where everyone else is a traitor, a collaborator, a Zionist, a petty bourgeois, a normalizer, a picket fence crosser.
Activism is about what works, not what feels good. It should be second nature to activists to always think about what actually makes a difference to the people you’re fighting for, not moral display, or purity, but impact.
