When you work at a large corporation, you don't really work for the CEO. You work for a manager, their manager, and to some degree that local management chain. If you are compensated in shares, then the strategic direction of the comp

If you actually read the lawsuit - it was filed preemptively to ensure that Twitter give 60-days severance/notice period. There is no evidence listed in the suit that says these employees were not given such notice. Further, it specifi

The issue then becomes "plausible deniability". You cannot claim you didn't know they were stolen if the serial number is ground off. So whomever grind the numbers off, may as well cut it open and extract the metals. It put

It's a bit out of the way for North Korea to operate and I don't see any news of a lost sub recently or ever in that area. I'm also not sure if the value of getting a NK sub is worth the effort. Other NK subs have been reco

How does China build 24 Gen III+ reactors in 10 years, and we spend billions in court arguing about environmental reviews. We F ourselves because we don't allow construction companies to do their jobs.

Because they are morons and shut down their nuclear plants and bet everything on Russian gas and renewables that aren't even designed to provide baseload. They absolutely should have seen this coming.
