As mentioned in the article, now Tesla is scrambling to rehire them. I am curious how many will come back, how much of a premium they will want, and how many will stay long term. It makes sense to take the offer (especially if it comes with a better salary), wait for your former colleagues to find jobs, get some feedback from them about companies, and then jump ship.
I would hope that he could have foreseen this outcome before signing the deal. He accepted a difficult job knowing that he would likely be to blame if it did not work out. He got a lot of money and (I hope he) knew not to bother moving too much stuff to Phoenix.
This is Furukawa, President of Nintendo. We will make an announcement about the successor to Nintendo Switch within this fiscal year. It will have been over nine years since we announced the existence of Nintendo Switch back in March 2015. We will be holding a Nintendo Direct this June regarding the Nintendo Switch software...
It makes sense to have a final press conference about the final games for the Switch. They want customers and partners to know about major games still planned for the system,. especially if it is still going to be “current gen” during the holidays. It could be a going away party for one of the most successful video game systems.
It is possible (and even likely) that the Switch 2 will not be announced yet. I suspect that if they planned to announce the system this month, they would have said as much. This feels more like “we plan to announce in 6 months but don’t want to say as much in case plans slip”.
More news on Pokemon Legends AZ, assuming it is far enough along in development? I would expect it to be one of the last Switch games, especially if the Switch 2 is backwards compatible. Pokemon Company is known for releasing games for previous generation systems.
So, he is saying that he has a great group of players but everyone around them (coaches, GM, and all the other people he is hiring) are holding them back? That his players would do better if they leave his team ASAP?
That leaves the question of what 3 teams he thinks would not take his roster. Denver, presumably, since they have a championship winning roster. Maybe Boston, since they had the best regular season record. OKC has a young team and was the best in the west?
Just because the slot can read Switch games, does not mean that the console is 100% backwards compatible. It could be that only select games (those with compatibility patches) will work or maybe the console will be able to validate the cartridgeto allow you to get a discount on buying the remake from the digital store.
These are worst case scenarios, but don’t go selling your Switch yet.

I don’t see him going to Philly, that team is not getting any younger. I can see him going for a sign and trade or, if he really sees an exceptional opportunity, signing below market (I imagine most of his income is endorsement based).
That makes the Knicks a tempting target. They have a strong young core that can shoulder the regular season so LeBron can focus on his health. New York is the biggest media market in the country, so his sponsors will love it. If he can bring a championship to a large, long suffering fan base, he will help cement his legacy. I assume that the Lakers would rather take a trade of picks and expiring contracts rather lose him for nothing at all.
That is how DDG search works as well. They take your search query and send it to a regular, data harvesting search engine. The engine does not see your IP address and cannot track you with a cookie but they can monitor the search queries of DDG users in aggregate.

In most social deduction games, the point of the minority team is to create confusion, since they have all the information. The majority team is trying to deduce roles, so they benefit from players who telegraph their strategy.
What? Sports referees are biased and are screwing my team? It is a story that started as soon as the first game with a referee was played. Refs are human and make bad calls. They will sometimes make a mistake and overcorrect or make a makeup call. Also, even with perfect refereeing, if you slice the stats enough, you will find bias in random noise.
As for the NBA, there are known biases: if a superstar and bench warmer make contact on a play, the refs will always favor the star. Bigger players are allowed to bang in the paint while smaller players are protected. Refs will only call a blatant charge and never if there is a defense foul on the play. As long as I can remember (20 years), if a player or coach whined about refereeing after the game, they would automatically get a fine but coaches would still do it so that refs favor their team’s next game for fear of providing evidence to the story.
There is always a story that the league is pushing the popular team. Before the Lakers it was the Warriors who the refs favored (it was infuriating fun to count how many moving screens Draymond could get away with).
Maybe it is because I am used to a colder climate, but how did you come to school without outerwear? Did your parents not notice the temperature in the morning and put a jacket on you?
That makes sense. Sorry, I grew up in a school system where recess stops after the fifth grade.
Also, you mentioned that lack of coat was a problem for lunch? I assume that means that your cafeteria only had outdoor seating. How did that work when it was raining or very windy?
Why a land tax? Many (most? all?) towns and cities have a real estate tax.
You forgot long term capital gains tax. There is no reason that the investor class should be paying a flat 15% tax. Critics will quickly jump up to say that we need to incentivise people to make long term investments in businesses, which I agree with, so short term capital gains should be taxed like gambling winnings.
Also, minimum wage can be addressed with a one time bump and after that, make tax brackets, 401k contribution limits, etc. multiples of the federal minimum wage.
It is a beautiful philosophy, but the issue with a land tax is that it is regressive, meaning the poor pay a larger portion of their income than the rich. If you look at detached suburban homes, from 100m² single floor starter homes to 1000m² mansions, the size of the lot is about the same. If you look at high density urban housing, a skyscraper full of luxury condos uses less land per occupant than cheap multi-family homes.
It seems to make the most sense in Soviet style ultra high density housing where the poor live 4 to a shoe box while the rich have luxury country estates.

Douglas Adams is undoubtedly one of the greatest writers of the period.
He is known for light, surrealistic science fiction comedy, not a genre generally considered “high art” but his mastery of language is superb. He is a master of analogies in a way that is both funny but also makes the reader think about the roles and conventions of symbolism in language.
Sorry to be a contrarian, but sometimes a change in title is a reward in itself, especially if it does not involve a change in job responsibility. In some large corporations, there are pay ranges that are determined by your title. It could be that you are on the higher end of the pay range for your existing role, so it is hard for your supervisor to justify why you should be getting more money. By giving you a dry promotion, it becomes easier to give you a fat raise during the compensation review season. At many companies, there is a certain time of the year to give people promotions and then later on in the year to give raises.
Is it really the same people making the game if everyone outside of upper management got fired 10 years ago? Looking it up, it was not even because they had made an unsuccessful game, it was just because the CEO decided that managing a big team is hard (but did not want to quit and let someone else take over).
