Two fold: Legal consequences if some of the people threatened by him want to sue or have him indicted about it. And whatever YC as his employer sees fit for the resulted harm on the reputation of the company. So, in the end, it can be every

I can quote all kinda of people to make very disturbing, threatening statements. Unless I am writting fiction, quote or not, it is still a threat. At the very least, tweeting bat shit crazy stuff while drunk is nothing a CEO should be excus

Every quote or in this case paraphrasing, lives in context. And in this context, yeah, it is still pretty disturbing. Reflects poorly on YC as well. Aparently their president didn't read the PG essay on keeping a low profile, especiall

The higher up you are, and the more you represent an organisation, the less immature behavior or poor judgement you cannafford orbare entitled to. USN nuclear sub commanders get replaced for DUIs, because poor judgement is not acceptable. C

Ah, that one war game. Reality is more complicated than that, as all wars since WW2 have shown us. I agree so, not all lessons from that particular wargame seem to have been learned. Calling what mounted to a quite brilliant, unconventional

Asymetric warfare is very different from the near-peer conventional warfare we see in Ukraine. One cannot occupy a region milotarily if a large enough portion of the local population is hell bent to oppose that accupation. That's what

Is the tech ASML has to get US export approval for coming from, or containing, tech from those acquisitions? Because if so, having to ask for US government approval is actually pretty standard.

And where is ASML leaving the communist European block to? If it is so clear, you should be able at least to tell us the destination. Props if you link to some sources confirming the future move.

There are two things fundamentaly wrong with OPs comment: 1: That life boat maintenance is dangerous (anyway, for such a claim I'd expect numbers) 2: Directly comparing any death (!) happening during vessel maintennace and operation wi

Vaccinated three times, had it twice. The first time, no long term effects. The second time, well... I think it is getting better, but I feel you. Stuff I know I know the solution to, I know I can do in the blonk of an eye just seems to

Same here, except the shorts bit. Not sure we are winners so: never before seen droughts in summer, extreme weather events and flooding at least every other year at scales we used to call once in a hundred years events. And then we are a lo

How is an eSIM any different from a normal one? I can get up to three eSIM (if memory serves well, did not check) from my carrier for free, plus up to two normal SIMs for free. And the carrier controls all of those anyway. And additional SI

Apple is big in sub-contracting manufacturing for all there products. And there are thise shops for cars as well, e.g. Magna. And those are really good at that. Same goes forbdesign and development, if you want. Still surprised Apple is rea

You seem to live in quite a bubble. Working in the gig economy is more about a lack of options than a lack of qualification. And the Luddite movemebr was as much about working condition as it was about pay, e.g. having children do maintenan

Culture changes take ages, and aerospace a very, very slow moving industry. Diversity, and whatever right eing talking point non-sence people spit out, has nothing to do with any of the issues at Boeing. Or at any other company. Sad that pe

And a culture that doesn't prioritize safety enough. At least Boeing isn't doing for the lol's.

Everybody with a shred of industry knowledge links the issues at Boeing to the MDD merger and resulting management and culture changes. Musk has, as usual, no idea what he's talking about.

That's how you want the regulators holding your existence as company in their hands, right? Pissed off and embarassed by you.

Branding didn't really matter. The MAX had to be a 737 for certification and crew training. Boeing cut corners during development, MCAS. And it seems that they are cutting corners as well in manufacturing, supplier management and quali

Not emotional, passionate. Don't forget, everyone in civil aviation spent their lives since decades worrying about safety. And then comes Boeing and fucks that all over twice . Bad news for Boeing so, the FAA seems to be rather pissed

The engineers FAANG needs are usually not of the aerospace variety, are they? And no, please don't use more start-up or software dev thinking during the development of safety critical hard- and software.
