intention to leave = staff leaving ? then scarlett johanssen is my wife because i intend to marry her. > Do you have an alternative source that provides evidence for that version of events? Yes because people go around documenting evidence for things did not happen.

announced their intention to leave... to the company... in response to the company making an open offer to people of terms for them to leave. That seems like a slightly different prior, in terms of our Bayesian assessment of the probability that those people remained employed at the company afterwards, than your hypothetical engagement to Ms Johannsen.

  > to the company Where did you get this though? > had announced their intention to accept buyouts from the company. Is it just people clicking 'yes' reaction to internal slack message ? This didn't sound like they were making any commitment ' to the company' . Also do you have any comment about the title of the article that you linked. Does that seem honest to you?

      > So strange to white-knight a company and attempt to deny something that happened pretty publicly... it was just skepticism from seeing these sorts of claims over the years. Half of hollywood would be in canada if people really followed up on those. At some point it became acceptable to make these sort of claims with no intention of following up. I guess quitting your job in the hottest tech market of all time is a little different than moving to a different country.
