I have met Steve at Ms several times, and he always seemed like a nice and genuinely motivated person. He seemed to like product challenges and even took on hard tasks like leading the core team of Windows 8.1 App enablement ( think of getting Facebook to create a Windows native app). I'd believe him that Mozilla treated him wrongly or asked unfair things of him, otherwise he wouldn't need to take these steps.

How was it a unique story, when everything happens in the books? The head writer and producers just tried, and failed, to be better than the original by adding useless confusion and killing important characters. The games are different in that they play after the books and extend the world.

Huh? I only watched until season 2 but so far the story was from the books. Just skipping some stuff and remixing it badly.

MrBeast uses a lot of illegal gambling techniques to hook children. The chocolate bar is advertised as healthy but the recipe was changed after launch, making it even unhealthier than Hershey. A lot of episodes and winners are scripted and somehow favor friends and families of staff. Even the signature on shirts are fake, as someone not Jimmy was seen on stream signing as MB.

And on Windows you booted in safe mode and removed one file. What's the point of your post?

I think he's partially right. Azure, AWS etc. are running workloads which would otherwise run in a bazillion smaller data centers. I still believe something is wrong as all those giants promise to run their data centers super duper green and sustainable..

Well everyone is being told they are special and top talent until they aren't. Then it's to late since there is a stigma attached and others don't want their shadow cast in them.

The chance of success is impressive, but it's just correlation to wealth in the family. From Microsoft over cloud flare, Amazon to tesla each and every one of those successful men had a rich daddy.

Black library has quite some books that feel similar in a Sci fi setting. You could check vaults of Terra.

Hm ich glaube hier fehlt vielen ein Teil vom Bild. Dienstwagen Nutzer müssen die Nutzung als geldwerten Vorteil versteuern. Wenn du einen 3er Kombi als Dienstwagen fährst hast du 1% vom Listenpreis (ca. 700€) und für jeden km zur Arbeit nochmal 0,03% (ca. 210€) die man als Gehalt jeden Monat zusätzlich versteuert. Effektiv kostet der Wagen also den Nutzer ja nach Strecke über 300€ im Monat. Weniger wie kaufen, aber trotzdem genug dass es ok ist ihn auch privat zu nutzen.

Und ohne das Prinzip würden Jobrad und device leasen dann ach wegfallen.

It does, but you might not notice it since you're exposed to the smell/taste all the time. But go abroad to Europe or some other place that doesn't use chlorine for drinkwater treatment and you'd be surprised when you get back how noticeable it is.
