    The ⁠company had about 162,000 full-time employees as of May 31, 2025, according to its annual filing with the U.S. ​Securities and Exchange Commission.

    What the fuck how is it that many people. I didn’t realize this shit company run by the shittiest group of people run such a huge operation.

    Fuck Larry Ellison. Scumbag.

    They also depreciate their GPUs over 7 years rather than the couple of years they’re useful for so their books are hella cooked.

      Oracle was trying to compete with GCP and AWS with OCI. Oracle cloud. This tells me they’re going to shutter that.

        Oh I fucking hope they do.

        Tomorrow I have to do “cloud maintenance” on a Sunday because the fucking OCI decided that some production databases are “unstable” and need to be relocated. The same databases that a while ago could not enable data guards and failed to restore from backups.

    I’m sure that’s totally going to help OCI’s reliability. And Ashburn won’t die for 3 straight days again, like it did this week.
