(again, Ars Technica appears to be open for business today). There's certainly no legal reason why they'd need to wait to fire people.

They normally aren't, they probably write the stories on the weekdays and prepare them to automatically publish over the weekend, with only a skeletal staff to moderate and repair the website. Legal, HR, and other office staff probably only work weekdays, or are contracted out to external firms.

Their CEO posted a quick note on their forums the other day about this which implied they don't normally work on holidays and it would take until Tuesday for a response.

I just installed a similar one in my bathroom, except the handle is on the side instead of on top. Also has a pull-down flexible hose that snaps back in with a magnet, very useful for cleaning.

how people wrap their head around multiple changes in multiple features at the same time?

Long before AI I routinely had 5 parallel development environments I would flip between. (I do distributed systems stuff, think HPC-adjacent clusters, when you're too big for Kubernetes and too small for supercomputing). One would be running long-running tests for my current changes, one being reset to a clean state, and 3 more on standby so I had 100% "duty cycle" (the reset took a while). You got used to multitasking.
