Well, let's lay aside the fact that there clearly are plenty of jerks in academia. The entire article seems to layout a sort of string of unusual and problematic situations. Whether it's people who hit upon the problem…
Under Intel both happened, sites were shut with people relocated to the main hubs (Portland in the US, Poland in Europe, somewhere in India too) and anyone with 'bad' (less than the median grade) were laid off too.
I disagree, the 2016 layoffs were organisational in nature. Basically they canned the Mobile CPUs, a big chunk of the GPUs and several other areas they decided they weren't performing. They didn't really touch the core…
That's not taking into account that a $5m property from 1999 will have required significant refurbishment, property taxes and maintenance to even retain it's value let alone increase.
It seems that every large company is guilty of this to some extent. I used to work at Intel and they had this exact problem when they tried to shrink the work force. The dynamic goes like this: Managers find it easier…
It's very traditional. The second you show that you're significantly scaling back you raise questions about whether you're a going concern. They could have canned the japanese office much earlier but then it's possible…
Whilst that's true, narratives at some point do have to meet reality. If rental prices drop by 10%, it doesn't matter what you believe, WeWork will be underwater.
Many months ago I listened to a podcast about WeWork that summarised the problem as: renting office space is a very traditional business. It's demonstrably true that the cost of these rental spaces is cyclical with the…
Altera is hilarious, they shit the bed with Stratix 10 - delayed by years and bet the house on Intel. Intel bought them and then totally shit the bed on what was meant to be the process shrunk version of Stratix 10.…
Bingo, straight across the middle. See that, I never thought I was going to get optical and quantum in the same headline but there you go. You never know with bullshit bingo.
This looks interesting. Whilst I agree with other commenters that it's hard to compete in hardware I think there's a good niche for this product. Google isn't going to start selling TPUs so something off-the-shelf for…
>KeenCorp doesn’t read the emails, exactly—its software focuses on word patterns and their context. Well if that isn't the biggest pile of horse shit I've ever heard, I don't know what is. We don't read your e-mails, we…
Whilst that's true, it doesn't seem likely that we go from where we are now (Can't do autonomous driving) to a point where can get fully autonomous driving, and then to a point where we can do fully autonomous driving…
