The tech sector continues to undergo mass layoffs. Here’s how to jump into entrepreneurship

It’s been a brutal two years for employees in the tech sector, which has shed more than 450,000 jobs—including 38,000 layoffs at nearly 150 companies in the first six weeks of 2024 alone.

It’s no surprise that automation is the biggest driver of job cuts, and McKinsey estimates that AI could replace 12 million more workers by 2030. But if every crisis presents an opportunity, this may be the perfect time for newly displaced tec

Apple has a warning: Don’t put your iPhone in rice if it gets wet
