Yeah, honestly, PIPs are dogshit in most cases. I'm for removing them as a barrier to prevent firing.

If you're going on a PIP, you're going to end up fired anyhow.

uBO filters won't work the way they used to because Chrome's v3 manifest will explicitly prevent them from working the way they have been.

Yeah, admittedly, those two things are annoying.

I haven't personally experienced the adblocker thing though, I suspect it's not intentional, but I'm purely speculating there.

The censoring thing I have run into, and it is very irritating, so I'm with you on that.

As others have replied, the MS thing is about them having a Plan B in case the board didn't reinstate him.

One way or another he's working for Microsoft here at the end of the day, Microsoft is just making sure they keep him gainfully employed within their control. Their move to hire him was covering their bases.

If the board were to reinstate him, like it has, then MS can rescind their offer and allow him to join the Open AI CEO position again.

Either way, MS didn't want to lose Sam is all this says.

TL;DR; The board basically caved to the demands of the 500+ employees that penned and signed a letter telling them to reinstate Sam Altman and disband the current board.

In addition to reinstating him, most of the board is "quitting".

In this case, the employees won out.

Their account deletion policy aside, Crunchyroll is like one of the last remaining bastions of solid streaming for a very reasonable price that hasn't increased in many years.

There's plenty of streaming services to cancel and switch to piracy on legitimately, I don't personally believe Crunchyroll to be one of them.

Even if it doesn't, the consequences of the board ignoring this is catastrophic to the company. One way or another, the workers will have a victory here.

Need to trim the knobs off, but otherwise, terrific stick for sword fighting

That is not that much in this industry.

I've got roughly 25 years in the software development industry and depending on what talent market you're working in, that 400k may not even be enough for one engineer or architects salary.

Yeah, most likely. This lets his rich buddies give him money for bribes and shit and it acts as "income"

That's just one fact though. I'm pretty sure they debunked the no echo bit.

They profess to, but if you look at their voting history and policy making, they really support corporations that spend lobbying money to enrich their campaign.

Pretty nearly every time.
