Is this AI image or this scumbag is mimicking Trump’s hair.
Lol no he just looks like that
One
Rich
Asshole
Called
Larry
Ellison
Look at that ghoul
Larry Ellison looks like the cartoon superlative of the devil
Anyone taking odds on this being a prepare for the bubble popping vs. the corporate line that it’s to invest further into AI?
Wouldn’t be surprised if, somewhere among these tens of thousands laid off this year so far, there’s another Luigi willing to go full old school Teamster.
Looks like Luigi, assuming he did it, was a once in a lifetime. He was driven enough and smart enough to pull it off, and he attacked low-hanging fruit. Billionaires are surrounded by armed guards 24/7.
Maybe, just maybe, we’ll get a disgruntled sniper back from Iran, assuming we get boots on the ground, and they’ll be able to pull it off.
But hey! We are in on the AI bubble !! /s
When they renamed 23c to 23ai I cringed so hard. You don’t install the DB and get an AI, you get an empty DB that has vectors.
I mean, that wasn’t the first rename for silly reasons. There is a long tradition of this for Oracle DB naming. That “c” in 23c meant “cloud”. Nothing about the DB 23c required it to installed or run in the cloud. That was in 2012 with DB 12c. Before that in 2003 it was “g” in DB 10g for “grid” (remember the grid computing hype?). Before that in 1998 it was “i” in DB 8i for “internet”.
Kinda late to the party aren’t they?
Oracle are not fast movers. But also this is not their first recent layoff.
Does he try to look like the devil, or does that apperance just like, manifest itself after doing enough evil?
this is the male equivalent of those MAGA women with the botched plastic surgeries.
He looks so old that even the botched plastic surgeries are looking old now. Damn he looks frail…
It’s a combination of buccal fat removal (apparently everyone is doing this?), hard drugs probably and shit genetics.
Guy looks like a hot dog that went bad
Needs more Bobby Kotick, with a dash of that evil sham pastor who actually looks like the devil.
He looks slightly burnt, or grilled.
I was thinking the dark side version of president skroob
Is that Vince McMahon?
I forgot he is pushing 80 years old.
Fucking nailed it. He looked super familiar and I couldn’t place it.
I saw the image first, thought it was bbno$ cosplaying as trump.
yes
I was JUST going to say!! Disney Villain looking ass lmao
He nailed the look, though, I have to give him that. It’s the nineteenth century magnate look, on which cartoon villains were obviously based.
If you’re evil nowadays, you can just buy a Mar-a-lago face to short circuit the whole process.
Yes.
Remember this is the BEST he can look. The hair color, the skin ointments and surgery, all of it. This is him at his best.
This guy was never a looker.
Also, the gloves are off for the filthy rich, we should attack them on every level, including calling them ugly. Never defend a monster.
No one told him he didn’t need to both act and look like a cartoon villain.
How can you afford to own your own island but not afford a suit that fits?
WTF I can’t believe thats a real photo. It looks like someone cut two heads in half and then swapped halves before squishing them back together.
Oracle completely missed the jump to cloud and, like Informatica or SAS, it’s been outcompeted by the likes of Microsoft, Google, Snowflake and Amazon for years now.
But hey, that’s not going to go down well with the shareholders, so just say you’re cutting jobs because you’re streamlining your business through the marvels of AI…
That said, who exactly are the people that are being let go? I can imagine the old guard still working at ‘their’ company, but firing young engineers hardly seems like a winning strategy
Walmart Tony stark is an asshole
Phony Stark?
This is somehow both an insult to Tony Stark and Walmart. At least Walmart is just old fashioned business bastard evil and not, to my knowledge, apocalyptic techno-feudalist with immorality aspirations that belong in anime or comic books and a fucked up mannequin face
I was going for cheap rip off version of Tony stark based on looks
Ah my bad, I would’ve thought that was Great Value Tony Stark
Edit: Clover Valley Tony Stark would be the Dollar Store variety
Time to organize
Look on the bright side, at least they don’t have to work for Larry fucking Ellison any more.
I can’t believe Oracle has 10,000 employees to begin with. What the hell are they doing that even needs that many people to begin with?
Firing 30,000 of them. You can’t fire people if you don’t hire them in the first place. And as you all know stock price jumps after big layoffs.
- Layoff 30K people
- Stonk goes from $146.88 close yesterday to $145.25 close today after the layoffs.
- ??AI??
- Profit!
Yeah, just like the other comment: likely mostly lawyers, lobbyists and trolls of all colors.
They have way more than 100,000 employees
Writing iron-clad, deal-with-the-devil level contracts that cannot be broken by mere customers. And nipping open-source projects in the bud via mergers and acquisitions.
These bastards grifted $300 million dollars from my state to build a single website for the Healthcare exchange after the ACA was passed. It never once worked and was scrapped for the federal government’s own version immediately after its “release.” To be fair, I also blame our state leaders for this as even your average moron could see this coming from a mile away. Even if it did work, who the fuck would spend 1/3 of a billion dollars to build a webpage.
Your state leaders weren’t stupid, they were greedy corrupt piece of shits who were in on the scam with oracle
We need socialism. Seriously!
Yeah this was fun. I got the email on my last day of vacation I took for my honeymoon.
I’ve heard of much worse those, people that had been there 30+years, a woman 6 months pregnant, and someone diagnosed with cancer, all without insurance now, not that Oracle offered great insurance to begin with. It was UHC.
