$659? Is it a week long concert with hotel and food included?

simultaneously defending himself in both cases would put him in a no-win situation.

What is that even supposed to mean? He has to prove that his actions where justified. How is his a no-win situation? Is his plan to first argue that he's innocent because he wasn't trained correctly and acted out of fear and then claim in the second case that he actually received proper training?

For anyone interested what happened (according to some anonymous whistle-blower):

They had to remove the door plug to replace damaged pressure seal but didn't want to run QA on the plug after installing it back so they didn't mark it as 'removed' in the tracking system, they simply treated it as door that were "opened". Parts were missed when inserting the plug, QA didn't check because it wasn't in the system, plane was delivered to the client. The rest is history.

There' s a lot of backstory to it but that's the direct cause. Supposedly.

I generally don't care about going to the office, it's not a problem, but what my company did was to hire 3x as many people as before the pandemic and simply move to hot desk system instead of expanding the office. So now we have more people but less desks and less parking spots. We have to use some app to make reservations and it's just a constant struggle to book a desk so that I can sit next to guy I don't know talking on a video call all day. What's the fucking point?

I, for one, have no idea who MrBeast is. Wish I also didn't know who Must was.

Not to argue about a joke but Linux was 'better' because it was free, not because it was technically better. By the time it got actually better than UNIX tons of people have worked on it, not just couple of drunk guys. I think someone just misread what the article says and missed the 'not' in 'need not be expensive'. But if people find it funny it's cool, it's not for me to judge anyone's sense of humour.

They didn't do it because productivity. They did it because real estate prices. Also they like to watch people work.

I would like to have the imagination that would let me come up with schemes like that. It would never occur to me to make money off of gun violence. American capitalist are something else...

No, I was young and stupid.

Meh. Other than shutting it down I don't think there's much Meta could do to help teens. The entire model of posting up your fake life online for everyone to see is bad, with or without beauty filters or notifications. Sounds like he objected to some empty initiatives that were more about PR than actually helping anyone.
