I feel for the people at Tor who were let go. My company was in the same position and I was unfortunately on the list of people who had their position terminated. While I am upset that I am now unemployed I also can understand how a company can be put in a difficult position during this time. I will survive, and I hope they do too.

I feel bad for the spiral here. We're now seeing the second-order of the depression spiral.

* First step was laying off people without jobs which could be done remotely.

* Second step is laying off people who could still be productive from home, but where there's less demand.

Unless we act with boldness and resoluteness, this will just continue to feed in on itself as the nation collapses.

Unfortunately for me, I was a remote worker already (worked there for a month shy of 6 years). Hopefully, my position (React/Node FS Dev) is in high enough demand after all this to resume working remotely with a comfortable salary. I've already had offers for remote but they require me to relocate after the pandemic is over, which is really clogging up the job boards.

I'm sorry to hear about that but I'm sure you'll do great w/a react/node background I'm not even involved in front-end but I know quite a few places always hiring good react/node devs (albeit they might be in a freeze right now).
