No woman felt comfortable working around James Damore after he wrote what he wrote so they fired him. Makes sense to me unless he was more skilled than all of them combined. Itâ(TM)s just business sense. He stupidly brought it on himself, by his own actions he made women get creeped out by him.
This has nothing to do with whether what he wrote was right or wrong. It made zero sense from a productivity standpoint to keep him hired.
What did he expect Google to do? They had no choice. Keeping him as an employee would have reduced their profitability.
It would be nice to make money, I said money wasnt the sole or even greatest reason. I do believe in capitalism you know. By your assertion, if Microsoft were to get into a highly profitable human trafficking business none of the shareholders would want to get out of it (assuming the profitability/legal ramifications were not in question).
Sarcastic enough? Let me ask you this then, why do people beg for loans more than loan sharks beg you to take a loan?
Obviously Microsoft is offering better loan terms or loans to higher risk people than a bank would provide. Is it charitable to take a chance on people, I think yes in many circumstances.
Not all shareholders have a goal of making maximal profit. Why is it assumed that the sole reason for owning shares in a company is to see financial returns. For example, I invest in Tesla not wanting much of it back but rather to see people get affordable electric cars and to dramatically reduce the 40,000 people killed in traffic accidents by enabling autonomous vehicles. Making a difference like that to me is more important than making money.
So investing in the stock market, or anything for that matter, is illegal?
Investing in anything has a risk/probabilistic component. Therefore it is a form of gambling. Well isnâ(TM)t it?
And donâ(TM)t retort with BS that playing blackjack online is 100% luck based.. it isnâ(TM)t. I mean, let me know randomly how clicking âoehit meâ for everything works out. All gambling takes some amount of skill to improve your odds.
You canâ(TM)t have freedom to express yourself without the freedom to cause someone to feel insulted.
The two are related, if you cannot insult someone. Nearly all free speech is bound to make someone feel bad. If you say you got bad customer service, the service agent will feel bad. Nearly all speech will make somebody feel bad.
You guys so full of yourselves to think you can be worth all that money to anybody. A car that wont spy on you will probably only cost about $100 more than a car that does. Just how much crap do you thibk can be sold to you?
A country is unstable if a significant population depends on having to rent a place to live. We need to relax the laws against building new housing units.
It might get solved with electric self driving RVs maybe? I mean work in Palo Alto and commute to Gilroy or some place like that? Who cares if it takes an hour.. self driving and costs nothing if you recharge via solar panels at your home (all new homes in CA from 2019 on are required to have solar panels).
Robots are much better than humans â" not because of cost. I would pay MORE for robots. Humans have HR dangers. They might sue you, the might sabotage you, they have conflicts with each other. Forget al the BS and drama of dealing with humans. Go with robots.
As for jobs, just tax the robot and provide humans with income (basically the rvso they dont blackmn
Except the founders of some of our best tech companies came from welfare or refugee families. In other words, if say we didnt allow Steve Jobs biological dad into the country because he was muslim we wouldnt have Apple. If we didnâ(TM)t like muslims from dirt poor third world countries like Bangladesh one of the parents of Youtubeâ(TM)s cofounders wouldnâ(TM)t have been in. If we didnt like refugees we wouldnt have allowed Sergey Brinâ(TM)s family in. If we didnt like people whose family would go on foodstamps we wouldnâ(TM)t have allowed one of Whatsappâ(TM)s cofounders into the country. And these are just the ones I know about offhand.
OK it's pure BS that anyone claimed it would end fraud. How can you jerks start off an article with a fat juicy lie like that? Nobody would have claimed something like that! Reduce fraud yes, but nobody would have claimed it would end it!
The robot isnt taking your job itâ(TM)s doing your job for you. Get your unfair share by taxing it. Take the robots salary even though it is doing 10x the work.
In 2062 when that sucker Halley returns we better have some rovers on its surface and an orbiter or two. In fact we need the rovers to land in the 2030s so we can catch the start of the outgassing and find some good vantage points.
I think one solution might be to use pre-1923 paintings, pictures, and film as the likenesses to base characters on. The character can be aged or ethicinity biased based on known aging or ethnicity modification algorithms.
Another solution may be to base it on a combined features take from a labeled database of people who signed over their images freely or for a one time fee with certain looks or character traits.
The problem is that if you make a realistic looking human. Itâ(TM)s virtually guaranteed that it would resemble someone. That person will claim his or her likekess was illegally used and demand royalties.
Not the free gmail. You wont be taken seriously as a business if your email is @gmail.com. You have to get the paid gmail which allows you to have email @yourdomain.
If you have a crisis life event, you may suddenly be making lots of phone calls and need to make emergency purchases. Thats when your phone and card will stop working?

If it doesn't have any of those things it oughta be cheaper .. am I right? Or is it like diet food where they give you less and charge you more for it?
I canâ(TM)t see the eclipse the bay area is cloudy and rainy. How is this a coincidence?

Allow third parties to sell computers and phones based on Apple chips.

600 years ago you were saying Columbus would never be able to fight off the dragons before falling off the edge.
Prety soon youâ(TM)ll advocate taking their investments too. What contribution to society is that? We should all be slaves contributing to society?

Canceled some production but not all .. so I guess the report, from SemiAccurate, was only half right.
Thank you. Try the fish.
