Except you can't do that. The problem is Google has no idea that this is where the documents/e-mails went. All they can see is that a large number of documents and e-mails were sent outside of Google. I can't imagine Google w

The problem is this "Google Union" is a joke. They are more of an activist group than a real union, so it's hard to tell if anything they say is actually true. However, if this person was fired for the reasons the person says

Has anyone verified that this is real? Some of it is kind of reasonable, but a lot of it seems so weird that maybe it's a list for a specific position, rather than for a general software engineer. Even then, it seems kind of dumb to re

The problem is that the engineer claims he only transferred some new hire information to his Dropbox. However, Tesla claims that he grabbed a bunch of other things like scripts and was attempting to delete them after he granted Tesla securi

That is not what the contract says (at least from the current lawsuit). Amazon has to formally give a notice that gives them 30 days. Amazon telling Parler that they are violating is not in accordance what most people believe the contract s

I think they shot themselves in the foot over the Joe Rogan thing. I suspect that they could have increased subscriptions by a large amount, but there were PR disasters all over the place. I suspect that a number of people decided not to mo

We all know this is BuzzFeed ragebait garbage. This had died down somewhat, but there is always some story about ads on "controversial" content. This is a new evolution of that, where it appears to be "controversial" ad

Or, you avoid vaccines for people at high risk of dying from the vaccine. Then you let herd immunity work. The question is what percentage chance do you have of dying from the vaccine versus getting the virus. Unfortunately, that's goi

That's not what they claimed. Amazon is claiming that Parler didn't remove them quickly enough and that the system Parler is using doesn't remove these kinds of comments fast enough. Here's a video from a lawyer (a Canad

I think that this is a really bad idea. I believe that this is selective enforcement because on Twitter there is a ton of incitement to violence. I think it's worse on Twitter because it happens all of the time, and Twitter seems fine

They are definitely becoming more and more radicalized, but I don't know where you get this white power stuff. Their leader is a minority and many of their members are black, and other minorities. However, I think deplatforming them ha

This always feel like political theater. This is so far down the road that we don't even know if gas powered vehicles would be in wide-spread use in the US at that time. And how much do you want to bet that if they are, this date will

No, if their total compensation with tips winds up being below minimum wage the employer has to pay them enough to get them up to minimum wage. Do companies abuse this, probably, but according to the law they need to be paid at least minimu

The problem is there are people for which a commute actually isn't this hellscape that drives them to the brink of madness. For example, I've noticed that the commute to and from work provided a nice break to get into work mode or

While the author didn't put that data in the article, the very last bullet point claimed that this method increased diversity. I would be a bit skeptical of that claim without any evidence, but it doesn't look like they ignored th

I think it's way too early to declare victory. In fact, Australia was doing really well, then one of the provinces messed everything up, possibly due to some government corruption. We need to wait and see if this time, things work out.

I noticed something very odd in the retraction: "The original version of this article stated that Sloane has a son. Before publication, Sloane confirmed this detail to be true to The Atlantic’s fact-checking department. After publicati

The article is way too long, and doesn't really talk about Nate Silver much. However, one interesting item is the idea that there is no way to verify these predictions. Because they are forecasting one time events, there is no way to v

I mean, Twitter recently censored a story from the New York Post. Then they came along and said, maybe they shouldn't be doing that. Even Facebook came out and said they would be slowing down sharing of this story. Now, if they did thi

The only evidence of Trump being more authoritarian is maybe the number of executive orders he has signed. And many of those are being challenged or are in the process of being challenged in the court. Where are you getting that he is more

This seems kind of a weird way to do it, unless they fear a cover-up. However, in the current climate it's hard to tell when people are doing something in good faith and when they are doing something where they have vague allegations a

Because the system is completely arbitrary. There is no explanation of why 3 extra cases per XX people means you get indoor dining, but 3 less doesn't. All of the numbers that I saw where never justified, and seemed to be based on some

This seems like an ad for this company without any real description about how it's supposed to work. For example, domestic abuse calls can be the most dangerous for police, so how does not involving the police work? Who would show up t

Maybe, but people don't realize that the subway was open during the entire lockdown. I would be extremely skeptical that the lockdown did anything at all since it looks more like New York achieved herd immunity (or close to it) rather

It's weird that nobody talks about what it means when you relocate. For Stripe it might not be an issue, but large companies probably have people in all different locations. This means that if you relocate to a place where someone else

This should surprise no one, but the article feels a little bit disingenuous. It's comparing Norway and Denmark to Sweden to make Sweden look a lot worse. But when comparing it to a bunch of other nearby countries Sweden is probably mi

Let's look at that chair analogy, you are presuming that someone can look at a finished chair and say it's a good chair, and the carpenter who built it is probably good. But in order to do that evaluation, you need to spend time e

Your post seems more like you are hoping that Iowa is going to suffer some terrible epidemic of cases, rather than talking about the data. You are speaking from the point of view of your parents, who are likely scared. For vulnerable people

Have you ever been able to look at someone's code and immediately figure out whether it's good or not? I think it can be easy to see if it's really bad, but sometimes it can be hard to tell if it's okay code, or really g

I always wonder in these kinds of articles how many people are doing this. The problem is that it is so sensationalized, that it could be that there are 10 people doing this, and it's not really a big deal. Or it could be that 50% of t
