Announced: Carmack now consulting for Meta, no longer employed. https://twitter.com/id_aa_carmack/status/1560728042959507457?s=21&t=I5tdJMKvTPKFaS-gair5Ag

predicted YES

@BramStolk LOL. I am surprised that this market resolved to NO so quickly

predicted YES

@MP This was resolved incorrectly @BramStolk . Carmack has been consulting at Meta part time for a couple of years now, there has been no change in his employment. The tweet is saying he is continuing in his current role.

predicted YES

@FRCassarino Source from 2019: https://www.theverge.com/2019/11/13/20963899/john-carmack-stepping-down-cto-of-oculus-work-on-ai

He’s been consulting CTO since then, only working one day a week (I mentioned that in my comment a month ago btw).

bought Ṁ100 of YES
He has a pretty comfy position at the moment in which he only works 1 day a week, and he still seems quite active and enthusiastic in Meta's internal communications channel. I see no reason why he'd leave in the next 4 months, so pushing it up to 87%
predicted YES
@FRCassarino Lol, am I trading against a Meta insider?
predicted YES
@MP https://manifold.markets/FRCassarino/will-i-quit-my-swe-job-at-metafb-to Only until next Wednesday ;D
Some particular reason to create this market? Boz vacation?
@MP No particular reason. I just thought it would be an interesting potential event in the techno-sphere. To counteract the avalanche of Elon questions 😜
