I pasted it because this is from a different, newer article than the link that described the attack in more detail and identified the victim. Sorry for the confusion.
Looking at his website it seems like the attacker was a mental break looking for a place to happen. His entire about me was the embodiment of the "I am an atheist" meme.
Feel bad for the victim, couldn't imagine just going about my day and then getting stabbed out of nowhere.
Of course, that meme exists because there's plenty of "I am very smart" self-proclaimed atheists out there that don't run amok like this guy apparently did.
I believe the idea is to prevent the perpetrators of such crimes from benefitting from the publicity caused by their crime. There's been a big movement to try to get news organizations to focus more on the victims of crimes.
(I have no personal expertise to judge whether this is an effective approach or not. Just expressing what I suspect may be the reasoning.)
I think that it’s bad to amplify extremist views (see the number of shooters who glorify the Christchurch killer). In this case I don’t think that’s a huge risk, though.
This is absurd. Society can't function if knowing things about suspects is off limits. What are we children?
There's laws against crime of the sort you imply. We know the guy did something and that he exists. If people can't handle learning details about someone's background without doing something illegal, those people deserve to be behind bars too...not dictating information censorship for the rest of us.

EasyOS is a container-focused OS with its own in-house containerization mechanism,[2] and it's seemingly not designed for or aimed at Pis specifically.
Probably not related, but I didn't realize until a Wikipedia glance[1] that Laurene Powell Jobs, Steve Jobs's widow, owns The Atlantic. And that she was also an investor/board member of Ozy and co-founder of a previous venture (College Track) with its CEO, Carlos Watson, both of which have, uh, been in the news lately.[2][3]

I accidentally left that one open... but the Ashby interface is so confusing I don't know where to toggle the visibility. I will remove that and then wait for our jobs page to rebuild.
FYI, not disclosing at least minimum pay means applicants should assume pay will be below average. Also, it says “remote - anywhere” at the top, and if you are hiring remote in California, Colorado, New York City, or Washington state, employers are legally required to advertise pay range on job listings and possibly other compensation details.

Hey! Ashby co-founder here, you can either close the job (if you’re no longer hiring) or unpublished the job posting, more here (https://www.notion.so/How-do-I-set-up-jobs-089229a8631f4b9fb...). Feel free to reach out to support@ashbyhq.com and we can chat there (if you haven’t already)
I mean I agree with you in principle but that doesn't change the fact that as a CEO you are in danger of losing your job if margins compress that much and you don't make a show of doing something about it. Keeping margins up is kind of important if you want to be able to invest in new products and markets and survive as a company into the next generation.
Edit: I was talking about the comment above me conflating wanting higher margins with belief in infinite economic growth. I wasn't making a statement about the morality of Ericsson layoffs nor do I have any insight on their financials. I was simply observing that margins seem to be a thing that investors care quite a bit about.
> if margins compress that much and you don't make a show of doing something about it.
Isn’t the layoff them showing they are doing something about their margin compression?
I truly don’t mean my comments to come across harsh. That’s not my intent and realize families will be harmed by jobless. But there’s not much a company can do to cut costs quickly to boost margins other than layoffs.
I don't know about infinite, but Ericsson is in the networking space, and there is plenty of work remaining to be done in that space. In the US, cell service is pretty mediocre, and 5G is still rolling out in major cities. I still routinely find gaps in coverage, or find myself in a populated area with very slow coverage. And this is a developed country, not even speaking of many many countries around the world still building out their networking infrastructure. I suspect this is actually accelerating as many developing countries have experienced good growth in the last few decades.
There may come a time when we hit some kind of steady state, but we're definitely not close now.
Yes, it's crazy, and yet this is how it's supposed to function. Boggles the mind. Solid healthy profits have little value, and companies are forced to think short term rather than long
As noted in my link, "primarily due to business mix change in Networks and previously announced charges for contract exits and portfolio adjustments in Cloud Software and Services".
If they took that hit and missed significantly on revenue, a layoff wouldn't be as unexpected. To take that hit and then beat on revenue, both quarterly and YoY, and then kick off an 8% layoff, is just corporations being corporations for the sake of it.
I could generate huge revenues by selling $100 gift cards for 80 bucks. But I’ll have no profit to show for it.
If their profitability was cut in 1/2 in just 1-years time, it's actually irresponsible for management to not take actions to get costs/margins under control.
Got it. To really enjoy life, I need to chew ginger gum while wearing a baggy t-shirt in front of a fan so I can drive a Miata slowly and safely for 10 minutes at a time.
> Now the wealthiest community in the United States has the unique distinction of also being the first community in the Bay Area to have a Builder’s Remedy project proposed. A young homeowner and computer engineer, frustrated that the town has been slow to permit the reconstruction of his water-damaged home, has announced plans to use the zoning holiday to build a 15-unit apartment complex and five townhomes on his property. Per the rules, four of those homes will house Los Altos Hills’ first low-income families.
...
> Local media speculates that this project may be out of spite by the young engineer regarding the NIMBY government of his town. Maybe, but it’s good nevertheless. Undoubtedly, this project will be sued by neighbors, but the courts have mostly ruled in favor of the Builder’s Remedy and other state housing laws so far.
