Mark Zuckerberg's $300 million superyacht, named "Launchpad," docked in Seattle's Ballard neighborhood just as Meta announced about 1,400 layoffs in its local offices. The arrival of the 390-foot vessel drew boos and criticism from bystanders and online users who saw the display of wealth as insensitive during a significant workforce reduction.
