Peer review was disastrous for society. It was established since WW2 and our rate of technological progress and has plummeted since and academia became dogmatic. It’s literally just selecting for groupthink

@astralmatrix @sporadica Umm, most of the country seemed to think so because public opinion of Clinton was at an all-time low after it. The major sticking point was whether or not people thought it was worth the circus of removing him immediately when he only had another year and some change left as pres

In the UK kids cant use youtube kids but if you rape somebody you can ask the government not to tell anybody and they do it

Umm, I don't think you guys understand that there's a very strong possibility that Jensen will actually just be going to jail.

Just so everybody gets a clear image about this.
​If the board removes him as CEO, several clear boundaries apply:

• Every share Jensen Huang already owns outright is his legal property. He retains full voting rights for those shares and can hold them, borrow against them, or dump them on the open market whenever he chooses (subject only to standard SEC insider trading blackout windows if he remains on the board, or Rule 144 volume limits if he steps down completely).

• The only shares a board can claw back or cancel upon termination are unvested performance stock units (PSUs) or restricted stock units (RSUs) that have not yet met their time or performance milestones. Given that Jensen co-founded Nvidia in 1993 and holds roughly 3.5% of the company outright, the vast majority of his multi-billion-dollar stake is long since vested.

• Because he is Nvidia's largest individual shareholder, firing him against his will creates an immediate existential headache for the board. As an outside shareholder, he could launch a proxy fight to replace the board directors at the next annual meeting, start a rival silicon venture and poach Nvidia's top CUDA and architecture leads, or threaten to liquidate tens of billions of dollars in stock, cratering the share price for institutional investors.

In short, firing a founder who owns over $100 billion in vested stock does not strip him of power; it just turns him into an activist shareholder with infinite capital and zero fiduciary obligations to protect the board.

@punished_daniel Nah this is just his ritualistic ascension to the podcast circuit

@CacheThatCheque okay but who even wants to spend Christmas in Hawaii? The whole point of winter is to enjoy the winter!

@Modern_Mechanic He's just hedging his bets between "Space Han Empire" and "Wasian Neo-Agartha" in the schizo sci-fi ethnostate loyalty game

Most surprising aspect of this is that she's white. I guess Jensen still has a bit of the 'ol snowfever in him.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is facing another affair scandal, according to The New York Times.

The report names Kimberly Powell, Nvidia’s Vice President of Healthcare, who joined the company in 2008.

Five former Nvidia employees reportedly said the two had a romantic relationship.

@CartoonsHateHer Every PC gamer has been fucked by Jensen Huang so yeah

@RyukiRider98 @EluTranscendent Because the power strip is going to be behind your big-ass entertainment center. Go look at 90s setups, there's basically zero cable accessibility.

[Longlius @Longlius]

@kapolalal @EluTranscendent Yeah but Sonic runs like shit at 50hz so what's even the point of setting up Sega stuff

@akiyamamizukaze When you notice the amount of Japanese sites where a resource ends in ".jsp", you begin to understand the specific circle of hell Japanese IT is trapped in.

@AJFCPassalacqua Oh I'm not talking about that. Like actual normie Christians - Ishiba (the last PM) was a reformist protestant and Aso was a Catholic. Way more than them too.

@MyNameDolan98 @Wario64 Yeah SW2. Also I think they want to bring the quality of the JP modern console versions up to par with the stuff released in EN/CN. For example, the Crossbell games got a lot of custom QoL work as part of their localization into EN that doesn't exist in the JP versions.

@Pkao15217285 @woke8yearold Except all these guys are probably in the firing line along with Jensen come January
