Users are facing down the web forum's IPO plans, but Big Tech's attract-and-extract cycle can't be stopped.

Had a Burger King near me die. It seemed sudden, because one day I went there and got lunch, and the next day it was closed forever. But in retrospect, yeah, you run for like 9 months with only 2-3 workers on, you're not giving a very good impression, and it's inevitable.

I don't blame the workers in any of that, they were doing their best. If BK wasn't going to pay a livable wage, that's their own fault, nobody wants to work a job that isn't going to pay their bills.
