    It’s critical that Twitch is here not just today, not just tomorrow, but 50 years from now, 100 years from now. Our job is to run Twitch in a manner that can ensure its prosperity […]

    I know the guy is peddling bullshit to justify the layoffs, but 50 years from now, really? Publicly traded companies / stakeholders rarely care about 5 years from now…

      My guess is he’s using that statement to sidestep criticism of layoffs. I mean, is it wrong to take the long view? No. Does that mean they had to lay off people and put them in a precarious situation? Maybe, maybe not. But the explanation that sounds palatable.
