    Palantir is pretty awful. I knew a guy who took a job there, a bunch of years ago. When he said where he was going, I asked “But what if they work on something really shitty? Like spying on people?”. He was like, “Meh”, with a big shrug.

    He was friendly and kind to the people around him, but I guess he just didn’t care about anyone he didn’t know personally right now.

      I’ve heard that’s how a lot of wealthy people feel. They want the absolute best for people in their family, and that’s about it.

        Yup. I’ve worked in tech for nearly 20 years. Most people who work in tech don’t give a shit about the ethics of what they do or where they work if the money is good.

        This is a screenshot from one of the discords of current and/or previous coworkers, but the sentiment is everywhere

          Ex pal people are on slack, not discord. This is probably an investor server

            Lol are you telling me that the people that I’ve worked with directly in small 5-10 person discord servers that we set up when I worked with them, are in fact investor imposters, and instead the actual coworkers are secretly using separate slack setups? Or do you just imagine that anecdotally how ever your coworkers have communicated is how all people communicate without exception?

              Some random goon you met in a 5 person discord isn’t “astroturfing”
