So they are saying it is related to a success fee of about 72m, plus fees for services rendered, totaling 18m. Musk accuses them of unjust enrichment, but it sounds like a pretty clear cut case of the old management doing what was right for

You read too many spy novels my dude. There are lots of former LE and intel people in any company that deals with analysis of massive amounts of data, because that is specifically what some of these skillsets are trained for. Leaving the IC

I mean, most of the mobile carriers and a number of ISPs straight up monitor your web traffic and sell it to advertisers, just as bad. Some will even inject headers that you can use to track and associate mobile devices with desktops.

You could be wrong... I worked at a place where we had like 20-30 different ERPs and they got SAP as a way to centralize the entire thing on one platform. However, during the migration they managed to recreate interfaces that resembled the

Not trying to shit on anyone, but that screenshot reminds me of 1990s/early 2000's games. I'm sure there has been a ton of work that went into it, but having some better textures or highlighting the usability would go a long

You know these are the floor of what you should do, not the ceiling. If a big company can’t explain why they aren’t doing the bare minimum defined in a framework, that’s a red flag. There are open source solutions for the majority of contro

That's really neat. I have always kept an eye out for SEMs since they sometimes get sold for scrap prices, but have always been weary of the software. This might actually make me pull the trigger.

Not when you have leases that are 5 or 10 years for 7500 or 8000 employees, which is what they had before musk took over. Commercial offices and real estate in big cities is fucking expensive . Like $100/year per square foot for nice

There is actually efficiency issues with the high heat... but they do help offset the AC requirements, so overall even if the efficiency is down 20-40% because of heat, you require potentially 20-50% less A/C because it shades the roof

Just speaking from experience, often times offshoring isn't actually that much cheaper. The total cost of ownership often times is not calculated correctly, or because of the way financials are done, give incentives to move costs aroun
