I suspect it was the rant about HR departments (various members contributed) where I gently called out this particular member's sexist remarks. They probably think it was me that locked the thread due to the "Protector" status against my profile. Sean did issue a warning to us all Quote: This thread is heading in a troubling direction. Disperse.
Looks like this one might be heading the same way. Shame really.

If you give a man a phish, he'll scam you for a day. If you teach a man to phish, he'll scam you for a lifetime.

Didn't read the report, but does it also mention how many were caused by their competitors? Sometimes, it's just to keep competitors on their toes, isn't it?

New research suggests that prompt engineering is best done by the model itself, and not by a human engineer. Now they're even taking away the jobs from the people that took away the other jobs

Microsoft is making a high-stakes bet on AI. But will it tarnish its reputation that it has worked long and hard to rebuild, bringing a return to the "Microshaft" days? Its reputation?! *Its reputation?!*
I mean, love 'em to death, but that is a company with a generally not positive reputation if there ever was one.
OK, not counting Oracle.
Or Google.
Or IBM.
Or... well, how about this - they're in the bottom half of the rankings for reputation?
|
|
|
|
|
Is there a company on that size (or similar or even a bunch less size) that gets into the upper half?

Good point. Apple, maybe. Certainly it has a better reputation for most observers.
And if we invoke VAX, I’m sure we can get a few Digital fans out of the woodwork. But of course they are no more.
But, yeah. Big companies aren’t conducive to having a good reputation.
