Maybe, but they sure as he'll aren't paying for the parking spaces they're waiting in.

Until you mentioned Congress (e.g U.S.), I could have sworn we had worked for the same organisation.

I'm pretty sure that just shooting the sharks at the enemy would be more effective.

Also, Insource the IT from India.

Seriously, it's like every Architect, Developer, and Tester is Indian. The BAs too lately. Same problem as outsourcing through... no speed, no creativity, no ownership, no quality. Just confusion and half-assed results. And immigration for the whole familty. Good luck taking the PM roles from the angry middle-aged white women though!

Yep, it absolutely does. I'm about to change jobs because of this... I was quite happy and productive working remotely, hot-desking, etc..

And seriously, having a standup on Monday and thinking there might be some change since Friday when the production issues were going on? WTF? No, I don't work weekends.

Yeah, sounds doable conceptually but no idea about the packaging of it, although compute power could be off-board. Dynamic refocus could be tricky I think... probably needs eye tracking so the glasses know where the eyes are looking through the lenses, but yeah, you could have a fluid or viscous layer and use a combination of pressure and if you're brave perhaps magnetic attraction/repulsion between the outer layers to shape the lens. Most folks would just use a servo motor or linear drive through and forgo the extra lens shaping step.

You could probably skip the eye tracking if you used a range-finder and the wearer got used to moving their head with relatively fixed eye position.

The only thing scary about a 9V battery is putting your tongue on it.

Nightmare scenario for traders, benefit for everyone else. The AI likely would have Chinese walls built into them to prevent collusion and insider trading. I for one look forward to my innately honest (and auditable/examinable) AI masters

Yes and no. Looking at the investment selfishly, then sure, if punters don't get a return within some time-frame then he must have failed to deliver and the company deserves to collapse.

My take is that he's changed the automotive landscape for the better, made a massive contribution to the helping the environment, and also to improving vehicle safety. Looking at it holistically I reckon he's already delivered. Some people invest to line their pockets, while others invest to make good things happen.

It's not an IT term. It's just some douche trying to coin a phrase and get noticed, " As I outlined in my HPE article, executives and high-performance employees tend to optimize against completely different trade and life principles -- they generally have very different views of the world.".

No, I think Lyft would be a better fit for this one.

Bunch of geniuses invent robotic surgical equipment that can operate in an intense magnetic field.

What's the first thing they want to do with it?

"Stick it up his arse!"

Would it have superfish and other viruses on there? Because I don't really remember IBM doing that. Lenovo might want to leave the Communist malware off. Or maybe they don't want to.

Do they? Seems like owning this place would be a bit of a gamble.

Huh. I thought Hot Topic owned us. What's Dice?
