[07:21:13] <chromas> So she said she was leaving if Google didn't give up the info she wanted, and it didn't so that means she was terminated?
[08:25:24] <aristarchus_> Academics expect disagreement to be public and civil, not covert and retaliatory.
[08:26:13] <chromas> Not really related to the question though
[08:26:40] <chromas> Also it's not like google doesn't have a reputation for firing people who question the big goog or anything
[08:27:43] <aristarchus_> Researcher in AI ethics, with a PhD? Hired to pursue research in her area of expertise? Sounds relevant.
[08:28:11] <chromas> Nothing to do with whether she was fired or quit
[08:33:53] <AzumaHazuki> and totally no different to that chud who kept going on about how white men were persecuted riiiiight?
[08:34:04] <AzumaHazuki> disingenuous sewer-dwelling plague rat
[08:34:35] <aristarchus_> Like I said, public, and civil!
[08:35:07] <chromas> that wasn't a thing
[08:35:40] <AzumaHazuki> <chromas> She didn't learn from Arne Wilberg's example
[08:35:53] <chromas> there was the guy with the document about women in the workplace or something and the one who wasn't allowed to hire more white and asian guys
[08:36:02] <carny> overly entitled gen z'er threatens employer gets fired is astonished to learn how the world works
[08:36:19] <carny> how is this even news?
[08:36:38] <chromas> well the point is she didn't get fired
[08:36:56] <carny> 'accepted her resignation effective immediately'
[08:37:07] <carny> that's cute
[08:37:18] <carny> she fired herself
[08:37:20] <chromas> she said she would quit if they didn't give up the infos
[08:37:31] <carny> it's like 'suicide by cop'
[08:37:42] <carny> and for some reason she's surprised at the outcome

[15:08:49] <Bytram_huey> still without power, going on 15 hours now (if I did my math right). No ETA on when power will be restored. Using battery power from a laptop atm. Phone charge is down to 17%. Don't know when I'll be able to do much on the site.

[20:32:26] <chromas> from the delete-me dept.
[20:50:41] <carny> the violence started long ago
[20:51:16] <carny> this is just the slow simmering of the very predicatable backlash

[23:04:04] <carny> rudy is so old and out of shape he might actually show significant symptoms
[23:05:29] <carny> he's as crooked as any other new york mayor so i won't be donating to his medical gofundme but it will be unfortunate if he dies simply because it will make lots of horrible people happy
[23:06:14] <carny> however i will simply add a filter to discard all news that mentions his name for a week and just move on
