Block $XYZ 40% RIF is the new Citrini fake narrative. Everyone will assume Jack Dorsey “greatest of all time” is doing this because of AI. He's not. Block has been massively bloated for years. Don't forget, Jack was head of Twitter. When Elon took over, he fired 80% of staff

I emailed Block $XYZ's management nearly two years ago (after a series of other emails exhorting them to improve margins). My optimistic 2026 case is *close* to what they are guiding to this year. Crazy that it took a 40% RIF but it was well known they were bloated. [image]
