A country is a piece of land. Germany did not do send people to concentration camps - the people running it did.

If only they had a marketing department. Someone whose job it was to understand these things

They will have one person take the interview for them, and another do the actual "work".
Probably happens all the time, irregardless of North Korea.

Yeah, it's genius. Especially the bit where they gave their competitor $13.75 billion first.
Thought leaders of tomorrow, right there.

People don't quit or stay over a 0.2% pay difference.
They quit because they hate their boss.

There's always "powershell.exe -command ..." to get PowerShell to download an .exe from a web server and run it.

"PC" meant "primary cassette", the main paper tray of HP printers of the time. Other paper trays connected would say other things there when out of paper. "Letter" is the paper size.

Oh great. Clippy on crack cocaine. My life is complete.

Where are the customers going to go? RISC?
ARM is leveraging their market leading position to open up a new market - not surprising

As the person who broke both the Nvidia bad bumps story and their ousting from Apple, I can say with authority that the real reason Nvidia is out is the patent trolling rampage they tried to start. I wrote some of it up, a bit blurred to protect friends, here:

The bad bumps were a big blow but that was just money. The patent trolling threats were a deal breaker for Apple and many other silicon vendors. Go look up the Nvidia vs Qualcomm and Samsung suits for more but the company is not wanted anywhere in the ecosystem. Some HAVE to use them but no one wants to.

They really should use quantum-resistant algorithms alongside a traditional algorithm for now so that you have to crack both. Quantum algorithms are very new compared to our old favorites. One of the NIST finalists for quantum-resistant crypto was cracked using classical computing near the end of the standardization process, highlighting the danger of relying on these alone.

Wake me when I can factor 1024-bit RSA keys. The Nintendo DSi and I have unfinished business.

I'm a pessimist, so I'm guessing--with no evidence--that we will find out that keeping N qubits coherent requires energy exponential in N, meaning that quantum computers are mostly useless.

The best part of this proposal is that either way they sod off, and nobody else has to deal with them any more.
They either succeed at creating something workable or not. Either way, nobody is forced to interact with them.

No it's not. He doesn't care about them having the information.
He doesn't want to waste his valuable time explaining it all to them, which is very different.
He doesn't believe in what they're doing and thinks it's a waste of everybody's time and resources, a position with which many others would agree.

It'll also crash into a firetruck at 60mph occasionally.
