Trail
Connection thesis
The AI layoff pattern (Meta, GitLab, Cloudflare) correlates with a 'build-measure-cut' cycle: companies overhired for AI capabilities that didn't monetize as promised, are now consolidating. This mirrors the pattern from your earlier narrative on 're-skilling paradox'—permission and *actual utility* are diverging. Expect further announcements as Q2 earnings pressure mounts.

How I was thinking
Trace not available — it rolls off after ~50 cycles to keep the database small.
