Wouldn't it make more sense to dominate the battery market? Are you one of those people who think Chevron is sitting on the technology to make 300mpg cars?
They tied up the Cobasys patents for a long time. If it weren't for the Goodenough's work, we would likely still be waiting for viable electric cars
" Intel is scrambling in what seems like a feverish emergency over AMD's new Ryzen processors, with Microcenter dropping Core CPU prices like crazy - and now, Intel is sending tech media emails saying "call us before you write" your Ryzen review. This is what happens when AMD launches their new Ryzen 7 1800X processor priced at $499, offering performance that rivals Intel's current $1000+ processor"
But I think this is all premature, until independent benchmarks confirm Ryzen's capabilities.
"Everybody is forgetting the $50 billion Intel had to spend before they could even start making these CPUs. Intel might lose money at even the "old" (non-Microcenter) price"
Everybody is also forgetting that Intel has been spending many billions every few years in new fabs or upgrades. So they've likely been losing money every year at whatever price they were charging, too. Right?
This was only intended for old programs, and it only works for 32bit applications. It is assumed that 64bit applications are modern enough to know where they should place configuration files and such
And that seems like a very bad assumption to make. I wonder how long before Microsoft realizes this and implements it for 64bit apps too
Lol. Guess you never worked at a company that uses windows. See they have this thing called a domain. And the windows pc is joined. Then they have this thing called a user. They let employees have this. Then when developers like me want to install anything I have to ask fuck face neck beard to do it.
But no vulnerability... besides the back of fuck face neck beards skull from the large pc case crushing it.
We have an AD domain & ~10,000 users 95% of whom don't have admin rights. But judging by the number of malware infections and re-imaging I see reported, they seem to be really, really good at finding the 6% of cases where Windows without admin rights doesn't work.
Between Fowler's accusations, the recent NYT article on Uber's company culture and Waymo's suit for theft of autonomous driving sensor designs, Kalanick & co are going to have a lot of face time with investigators
Not only am I rooting for them, most of my PCs since the late 90s have been AMD whereas all my laptops and the majority of my servers have been Intel (with a few Sparcs & IBM Power thrown in). As AMD was lagging the past few years, I was seriously thinking of buying Intel for my next performance workstation. Now it looks like I can continue with AMD a while longer and if Ryzen measures up, it'll be my 2017 Xmas present to myself.
There is an investigation in progress. Did you miss that little detail?
-jcr
Did you miss the detail that when she went through "proper channels", her claims and those of other women - ALL AGAINST THE SAME MAN - were dismissed? And that the ONLY reason there's an investigation is she's gone public, without providing proof as so many have pointed out, which caught the attention of the CEO?
They (or another company they acquired) used to be known as SafeNet. We were evaluating their cloud-based multifactor auth system and liked it, more than the RSA SecurID / Auth Manager setup that we've had for years. But They Who Sign Checks Without A Clue told us we have to implement Azure MFA instead.
Well probably because he was letting his hot wife sleep with senior management he had a pass. What really needs to be investigated was was the guy pressured into having an open relationship so senior management cold bang his wife and hence thought it OK to bang subordinates.
That stuff is hard to keep quiet. Of the 20+ rumors of harassment & dalliance that made it to my ears in the schools & jobs I've had, only 2 turned out to be untrue. Fowler claims that multiple women had file similar accusations; it's inconceivable that he'd been chasing multiple women at the same company and no one would know he was a cuck for the higher ups.
I guess that since you know someone who's been harassed, no investigation is necessary from now on, and we can just go with a policy of assuming that an accusation is proof. What could go wrong?
-jcr
Wow, you really told me!
I guess that since you know someone who's been harassed, no investigation is necessary from now on, and we can just go with a policy of assuming that an accusation is proof. What could go wrong?
-jcr
What could go wrong? Quite a bit, I suppose. But dismissing claims of harassment, abuse & assault didn't work for the millions, possibly hundreds of millions of women since, well, forever. And no amount of proof ever seemed to be enough, unless the accused was unpopular, had been accused before or was a minority.
Weigh that in the balance and see which way it tips.
Only a few years before Bill Clinton did this, the DEMOCRATS has weaponized the same sort of misdeed to remove Senator Packwood from office
In the specific case of Bob Packwood, a cursory amount of research & a few trips down memory lane show that to be false. Between Nov 92 and Aug 93, first the Washington Post, then the LA Times and New York Times published quite a bit about Packwood's sexual misdeeds, for an initial total of 10 women dating back to 1989. Packwood was hardly a Democratic target as he was a strong supporter of women's issues and the initial reaction from feminists was sheer disbelief. And WaPo held off on publishing their story until after the election.
Senator Packwood's intern never filed a complaint against him either.
The Washington Post published accusations from 10 former female staffers in 1992, the New York Times published a long column called The Trials of Bob Packwood in Aug 1993 and Packwood still didn't quit until Sept 1995
She had better work extra hard at hanging on to her new job because after this she will never find another in tech or any other white collar work. Making a public scene like this about a former employer makes you positively radioactive to future employers. They will find this on even the most cursory Google search and won't bother to look any further. Nobody wants to hire a boat rocker with a chip on her shoulder who creates PR nightmares, that's just asking for trouble and business is hard enough without hiring mistakes like that.
Yeah, because hiring HER was such a mistake but not making a manager of the dysfunctional cuck who has HR lying to cover his repeated harassment of the female staff.
And it appears that Uber is investigating said allegation. We don't have enough information to know whether it happened or not. That's what investigations are for.
After the Duke Lacross Lynching and the UVA rape hoax, I'm inclined to reserve judgement until an accusation becomes a lawsuit and is litigated.
-jcr
Glad to see the bar is set low enough you won't hurt yourself. And the friends & lovers who've confessed to me their personal stories of harrassment, rape & abuse will all be very relieved.
The problem was his wife. When she wanted an "open relationship" so she could fuck other guys he should have said "DROPPED" and found a faithful woman. Instead he said "okay..." and then went begging for sex from every other woman he encountered.
Girlfriend, not wife. My bet is that he's a sugar daddy & sub to some young thing that won't let him into her panties but gets him all worked up telling him about all the amazing sex she's having with other men.
Wrong. Sexual harassment is an UNWANTED advance. If the advance is welcome, it's not sexual harassment.
There's a time & place to make an advance and there has to be a basis for it. Propositioning women at a nightclub on ladies night is reasonable and even there you have to make opening moves that aren't blatantly sexual. Regaling a brand new subordinate, of whose personal life you know nothing with your sorry story of being outscrewed by your open-relationship "girlfriend" at the office is Category 5 stupidity and deserves, at the very least, a demotion.

He just isn't quite Goodenough.
The man's 94 years old. You're going to have to be very, very creative to make a joke out of his name that he hasn't heard 1000x
The worst insults and nastiest fights are often between brothers and sisters.
And followed by make-up incest? That's how Appalachians & Mormons roll.

Unless they are a Democratic President (see: Bill Clinton).
The Republicans only cared because they wanted Clinton gone. Also Lewinsky NEVER filed a complaint against Clinton.
Not that I was ever okay with his hound dog ways and Hillary should have dumped him long before that.
And someone was covering up for Dennis Hastert for a long time. And Gingrich.
