I don't know who modded this offtopic, this bill sounds 100% like "let's make up an issue to win so we can be winners."

Pointless to ask without knowing what compensation he's getting.

What the deal with silicon valley jobs used to be was, you'd get a big salary, but you'd work a lot.

He who hath never pushed the paradigm of email or spreadsheet past its intended usage, let him cast the first stone at her.

exactly this. If they really cared about the whistle blower he would have been dead long before he had a chance to provide testimony and they wouldn't wait a year to fire him for incompetence and then another year before they bothered to act. Sometimes the obvious and simple answers are the truth, they just don't give a shit.

It does, but you don't instil fear by killing them in such a contrived way that it looks almost certain it wasn't murder. You need to leave room for their imagination to run wild, car accidents where brakes failed, accidental falls, mysterious mugging that resulted in death. That instils fear. He caught pnuemonia and died just like thousands do every year doesn't instil fear.

Sooo you have No evidence or means for this to have occurred. But it is clear he was murdered despite all the lack of evidence?

That would have to be addressed on an application-specific basis. Debating the issue "in general" doesn't make much sense.

Definitely humans provide care in a way an algorithm cannot. On the other hand, when the summary does get around to mentioning what Kaiser is actually doing, it's monitoring sensors. Computers are pretty damn good at maintaining vigilance in sensor monitoring, in a way people are not. That's why we have fire alarms even though humans can also feel heat and smell smoke.

why would they bother? he no longer works for them, the fault he reported on had been acknowledged as a fault by Boeing and Spirit and he was fired for missing another fault. why would they suddenly be targeting him a year later?

That is true, but let's not forget that most Windows users are not Rocket surgeons either.

Yikes! That's a pucker string moment. Microsoft really needs to do like Linux and MacOS does. Let us choose when it reboots to install. They seem to think that the most important thing in computing is their OS, and that it takes priority over the work we are doing. Or trying to get home.

The OLED screen jumps out at me as a useful upgrade. An iPad is mainly a screen.

Although, they make some nice non-OLED screens too.

I think perplexity.ai is in a honeymoon phase of not having been sued yet. GPT4 has become very cautious about analyzing or quoting copyright material including papers, whereas perplexity will still go ahead and access them and do the work for you. It's great, but I wonder if it will last.

People want to see their 401k's go up, and whoever's in charge of making sure $BIGNUM goes up this quarter at google wants their bonus. There is no single individual who personally owns the $110B google has lying around.

They most certain do have offices in those locations
