Does he try to look like the devil, or does that apperance just like, manifest itself after doing enough evil?
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.

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.
He looks so old that even the botched plastic surgeries are looking old now. Damn he looks frail…
How can you afford to own your own island but not afford a suit that fits?
It’s a combination of buccal fat removal (apparently everyone is doing this?), hard drugs probably and shit genetics.
If you’re evil nowadays, you can just buy a Mar-a-lago face to short circuit the whole process.
yes
Needs more Bobby Kotick, with a dash of that evil sham pastor who actually looks like the devil.
this is the male equivalent of those MAGA women with the botched plastic surgeries.
I saw the image first, thought it was bbno$ cosplaying as trump.
Guy looks like a hot dog that went bad
Yes.

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.
First, Epic, now Oracle.
I’m never gonna get another job in software, am I?
Edit: I physically let out a cry of pain after reading possibly 10,000 engineers of varying seniority had been fired (incident was reported on LinkedIn and judged based on the dip in Oracle’s internal Slack membership count).
Yeah, I should just start trying to move into a new field, huh.
I trained as a clown at literal clown school. Everyone laughed at me and told me I should’ve been a software engineer. Well, no ones laughing now.
so you’re a bad clown then?.. :)
Do I amuse you?
it’s possible. just, if you are looking right now, don’t expect the same salary you were getting. Be willing to take a minor pay cut, and be willing to take a service industry job just to get money. (that never touches your resume)
I was in accounting and very underemployed when Arthur Andersen disintegrated. And then again for Lehman Brothers. It was rough, but I got through.
the job search will destroy your soul. take breaks to keep yourself from doing things you will regret.
Just speaking for myself, as a systems administrator, I am actively pursuing my backup plans to get out of IT ASAP. What’s coming is topsy-turvy and will be dog eat dog.
I feel you here. I graduated into covid and then as soon as things started opening again all these non stop layoffs
Feels like a month ago they were spending billions on some AI scheme.
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?
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
I totally agree which is why i said even an average moron would have seen through this. They only like to pretend to be working for the people when elections are near.
You should see their license fees
They have way more than 100,000 employees
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.
Is this AI image or this scumbag is mimicking Trump’s hair.
Lol no he just looks like that
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.
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
Anyone taking odds on this being a prepare for the bubble popping vs. the corporate line that it’s to invest further into AI?
