Yes. The mechanism is usually that the group directly managed by such a fuckup is desperate to get rid of the person and hence gives them glowing reviews to that they go away.

We really need to stop amateur-hour in all things management. Not that we need to get it to, say, skill levels routinely expected in engineering, but the current pathetic showing has to stop and we need real management liability when they (again) ignore all known approaches and facts.

Sounds good, but happens to be an abysmally bad idea in a connected world. It essentially enforces isolationism. Also note that no modern country can educate enough of its own citizens for high-skilled jobs. Eventually this will be a global problem, but at this time you need to import people with those talents or lose it all.

That there are not enough low-skilled jobs is a separate issue.

DNS is not secure. Internet IP addresses are not identities (for internal ones, YMMV). Do not rely on either.

These are not "American jobs". These are jobs in America. The subtleties at work may be too much for you though.

People still fail that test? Incredible.

Well, it begins to look that way. Only in the sense that nobody wants to do business with them anymore.

Interesting. This does not bode well for Tesla. Well, as soon as you look carefully, nothing bodes well for Tesla, or any Musk "enterprise" really. I would not be surprised if the story hides some strong caveat or even fraud.

I completely agree. These people are a massive negative force. Worst case happens is when one of those makes it to C-level, or even CEO. From observable evidence, this happens quite frequently.

This is an instance of the "Peter Principle" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_principle): Promote people until they are incompetent, then keep them there.

Soo, and the kids are responsible and need to suffer for their parent's decision? You are one special repulsive asshole.

Indeed.

That moron? Visionaire? What are you smoking?

Always funny when the deniers turn out to be illiterate...

Assholes like Musk will never be willing to pay more taxes for something like this. People like him can never get enough. Hence he and others try to keep people quiet with "you will be cared for" until it becomes impossible to hide that this is a lie, but it will be too late to really do anything.

"Smart" != "moral". Some of the most evil fucks have been pretty smart. Obviously, to be a smart evil fuck, you have to ignore some things, but high intelligence does not come with the skill to apply it competently and equally to all questions that arise.
