Nothing wrong with Aldi, those cheap canned ingredients are basically the same as name brand.

while not grasping concepts of it just jumped forward a week sure.

Also this James Damore dude will make bank off this lawsuit because Google are probably going to have to settle.

He got sent to mandatory diversity training and wrote his memo in response to being asked for input as to why women aren't attracted to or successful in tech jobs. His response was fully referenced with peer reviewed studies and circulated for a while before it got leaked and republished with the citations and bibliography removed.

I'm not advocating what he wrote or what he's become in terms of the current cultural climate but the dude is less some kind of evil mysoginist and more a dude who literally has aspergers regurgitating information without adequate or proper context to the wrong audience at the worst possible time.

He probably has legitimate grounds against why he was terminated since he wasn't terminated when he circulated the memo he was fired after it leaked and the response that came from it.


Also dark is really good on Netflix. Watch it with subtitles not dubbing though.

In California, unless his employment agreement specifically says otherwise, he can be fired for any reason. e: his memo also looks like a satirical response, at best, for why women should stay in the kitchen, so I don't think it's the kind of answer Google needed. It's like writing a career essay in high school about smuggling turds and wondering why you got sent to the principal's office. He probably failed diversity training (yes, it's possible).

I don't think Google will settle. They will with the ladies, though.

Like I said his memo isnt something I agree with but his goal was more to illustrate and put forth into the discussion that there's reasons why people apply for and excel in jobs or don't beyond discrimination and the big bad evil of the white man. Something that if equality of opportunity is your goal ought to be addressed or at least tabled for discussion.

He just really the wasnt the guy to do it and really went the wrong way about it.

This seems to be a lot less a guy getting sacked for cause and a whole lot more about Google wanting to be seen doing the right thing after he did what he thought was asked of him.

After all the other embarrassment caused by corporate leaks I really doubt they want their internal memos to become public. They'll throw a few mill his way in exchange for him to gently caress off.

That's fair. I was looking at it from a "can he be fired for this?" angle instead of the much more logical "how will this hurt Google?" angle.

Word. One of the managers on my project halfway through this relatively important discussion today got this real serious look on his face and said "I'm just so worried about Georgia". I couldn't stop laughing once I figured out what he was talking about. He's never once mentioned anything about football.
