Oracle cuts thousands of jobs, prompting questions about Austin’s tech economy

This is one of those topics where the Austin angle matters. The national conversation doesn't capture what it's actually like on the ground here.

People online are actively discussing this, but I want to hear from people who actually live in Austin.

What's your honest take?

Been waiting for someone to bring this up. Good thread.

This has been on my mind too. Living in Austin gives you a different perspective on it.

Following this thread. Want to see what other locals think.

Interesting timing on this. I was just talking about it with my neighbors.
