Nope, John Sculley. Jean-Louis Gassée is the founder of Be Inc and actually has a scientific background (though I can't find in which specific field he has a MSc).
Grohmann Engineering was a Germany-based company. Of course, German law also allows for non-compete covenants, though I have no idea how they are enforced. In that specific case, one could argue that the new company wouldn't compete with Tesla as Tesla has shown no interest in servicing German customers.
Also, I wouldn't seriously expect this to happen, that was more a "wouldn't it be funny if..." kind of thought:)
Grohman founds a new company, most key employees leave for the new company (*), Tesla is left with a bunch of patents. <sarcasm> Smart move, Elon! </sarcasm>
(*) Between leaving for a company with dependable clients and staying in a company continuing to lose money quarter after quarter, the decision shouldn't be too difficult.
Plus, leaving one job after just a few months is a big red flag.
A big red flag showing that the workplace environment is toxic there? As if we didn't know already? Why would an employee care about a high turnover rate at the company he's leaving anyway?
Shouldn't we be the ones with the leverage here?
Only if the employees join their forces rather than trying to undercut each other. Leaving the place can be a solution at a personal level, but not at the society level: it takes more time to bleed dry a company (that will play PR games like renaming itself, pledges by the CEO, denouncing "isolated" incidents, etc) than it takes to the "industry standard" to step down one notch (bad managers also hop between companies).
It's better to not reciprocate. Lets American tourists travel unhampered: they bring money.
There's even no need to retaliate, as it will all sort itself:
- less tourists to America; - less business travels: give your e-mail credentials to the state ? No way. If you want that contract signed, you come to London/Paris/Tokyo/Beijing/... - to alleviate the burden of formalities, this year that international conference will be hosted in Dubai/Macau instead of Dallas.
I don't have experience with OpenBSD and NetBSD, but for FreeBSD, dual-booting with Linux should be relatively straightforward.
I guess your issue is a mismatch between BIOS/MBR and EFI/GPT partitions tables. In "guided" partitioning, FreeBSD uses GPT exclusively. If you had installed Linux first on a MBR, it won't work and you have to go in manual partitioning. You only need a single partition (FreeBSD calls them slices), and then you can sub-partition that slice (typically for a simple setup, a few GB in/, whatever you want as swap, and the remaining space in/usr,/home being a symlink to/usr/home)
If you install FreeBSD first, Linux should gladly accept GPT.
If, for some reason, you use MBR but your disk once contained a GPT, the FreeBSD installer can get confused by a secondary GPT at the end of the disk (at least it was in FreeBSD... 9, IIRC)
You might also want to modify your BIOS settings and choose (U)EFI boot method instead of BIOS/Legacy (if available).
While negative media coverage of autonomous vehicles could be 'killing people' , one of these potentially killed people could be the next Hitler. Who would be so irresponsible to take the risk ?
I'm impressed: you managed to not mention Ü... a single time in this summary. A....b isn't mentioned either, but this is expected. At least, all "related links" are about Ü... . I think that company deserves its own icon, just as "the real-life Tony Stark". After all, Bitcoin has its own.
Dear non-Commonwealth nations, thank you for your offer. Upon consideration, we are not interested, but our door is always open in case you'd like to provide another offer. Until then, cheers! UK
Yes, but would the EU have done this to one of their own companies?
Did you check?
Obviously not.
Obviously not.

Previous record was against EDF (French utility company). FIAT (Italian automobile manufacturer) also had to pay back taxes because of that European rule.

Unless bricks actually can fly 30m high and in a 50m radius.
43m, sounds about right :)
They're outraged that Trump's been called a fag.
Thanks, I didn't see it under that angle:
"Trump has been called a fag! That's outrageous to fags!"
I can agree with that, seen that way the complaint seems actually legitimate.

I believe he's going by the Humpty Dumpty argument.
'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.'
So, "nuclear winter" = "blotting out 10% of the suns energy". I wonder what word he would use when it goes to eleven ?
volumes of sulfur that have induced global nuclear winter for a decade at a time
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
If it doesn't do uncrop, it's lame.

1.2 Drop feature

1.n Drop product altogether
2. ???
3. Profit!

Summary's links are fact-free ads.
I found this one, that has the merit to link to the arXiv article about the process.
Would that be the New-York Times fact-checker, or the Fox News fact-checker ?

Maybe it chose the wrong place to land, but we may never know...
Arrows are definitely present in Unicode.
Can I squirt it to a Zune ?

250 physicians responding to an informal internet survey
Only 2.7% responded that they were "just a political attack;
only 2.7% that there had been "too much emphasis."
6/250 corresponds to 2,4%
7/250 corresponds to 2,8%
Are the opinions even real, or are the results doctored ?
informal internet survey
On the Slashdot polls of old, there was a mention that if you were taking the results seriously you were crazy. Applies just as well here.

Is anyone actually listening to anything this fat fuck says anymore?
Yes, as apparently it's still wise to listen to anything the FBI tells you.
If you're anywhere within 100 miles of a US border, the constitution doesn't apply
I think my Canadian relatives, almost all of whom are within 100 miles of a US border may take serious exception to that.
Your Canadian relatives expected the US constitution to apply to them ? :)
and any US customs agent can do anything they want to you, at any time, for whatever reason.
As long as the Canadian constitution applies to US customs agents on Canadian soil, your Canadian relatives should be fine.
nVidia set up us the surprise.
For great justice.
(I think they meant that nVidia dropped the surprise at the unveiling (on the audience), not dropped it from the unveiling.)
