Having students bike the final mile sounds a lot like Theranos saying they could do all these amazing blood tests on their new, futuristic machine, only to find out that they’re still doing most of them the way all labs did them

That’s the core of the trial though, right? That through these deals and other things Google does to stay dominant, they stifle the market for competition. Ie Edge, Chrome, and every other Chromium-based browser pushes Google to the end users and FF pushes some unfamiliar search platform, then there’s an uphill, arguably unfair, battle for it to gain enough market share to be sustainable.
Twitter’s definition of state-affiliated:
How state-affiliated media accounts are defined
State-affiliated media is defined as outlets where the state exercises control over editorial content through financial resources, direct or indirect political pressures, and/or control over production and distribution. Accounts belonging to state-affiliated media entities, their editors-in-chief, and/or their prominent staff may be labeled. We will also add labels to posts that share links to state-affiliated media websites.
Conspiracy theories aside, AFAIK there’s no evidence that any level of the US government exercises control over NPR.
How is it state affiliated?
Yes, I understand that’s the current structure. I’m saying there needs to be a new structure where CEOs can’t make greedy decisions with impunity. Clearly the idea that the board is supposed to prevent that doesn’t work because this story is all too common.
Pisses me off that CEOs never get fired for their bullshit and get to “retire” or “resign” like they didn’t just make the most boneheaded decision that severely hurt the company.
There really needs to be some organizational structure where the CEOs have the power to make the decisions they make, but the employees have the power to punish and fire them when they do shit like this. No golden parachutes for them!
I deployed a few of these. They were 10 years behind the curve. The monitor weighed as much as a flat panel from 15 years ago, the stand was fucking HUGE making it hard to move. The camera and microphone were an afterthought and not worth using (the mic would pick up every little touch on the Jamboard). The entire thing felt like it was built for design first rather than function
And people turn their heads, move their eyes across their windshield, change focus to look ahead or closer, look in their mirrors, listen for sounds (emergency vehicles, car honks, etc), are able to do things like look through gaps and other car windows to adjust to partial obstructions.
The fact that he doesn’t realize you need a multitude of sensors to do even a little bit of what a human can do tells you all you need to know about Elon’s so called brilliance.
Or amazing and cancelled after 1 season (rip Peripheral)
Wasn’t the CEO of Zoom a high level engineer for Cisco? I believe it was one of those situations where the executives weren’t listening to where he thought the WebEx platform should focus on development and he thought “Fuck it, I’ll do it myself”
