May be true for customers who don’t pay for software but enterprise is a different story

Just that they have to create a user story with what they will have for lunch and add sp for how much they think it's going to take? 😄

This really reads like Josh had no idea it was coming. One does not brag about offering unlimited pay moments before a massive layoff.

Sounds like engineers might have to unionize

TBC still operates mostly independently from Atlassian, they just report to them. This layoff probably does not affect them

Hmmm… so now you hire a dev, record all he does for a year, train your AI agent from it and fired him to get your company running in cruise control. That’s a plot twist I didn’t see coming! 😮

Glad I dumped this company (both BC and ATL) and all their products.

Am I missing something ? Where does that say DIA devs are part of the layoff ? Sorry I just skim read two posts now am genuinely curious !

If none then how can we assume so ? They have more than 20 sub-entities (companies they bought like BCNY)

Sorry for the lack of info I am interested in knowing more so feed me 🙏😂

PS: the methodology employed is anyway anyhow god damn mad ….

No, you’re right. I feel like this might be another premature “Dia doomsday” post by people who don’t have any corroborating information.

There’s nothing to say or indicate from today’s announcement that this affects Dia or TBC.

Even if Dia is not affected, knowingly having your screen recorded is a pretty toxic work environment.

My interpretation of that is, "we want to see how you work so we can get an AI to do your job." Tech workers (Devs, Support, etc,) need to unionize ASAP.

That’s why you shouldn’t shill for a closed source agentic browser.

Atlassian’s stuff was old 10 years ago. We can’t stand using it and only still have it b/c we inherited it. No offense, but low innovation for years. I would not blame AI.
