To OP, I really appreciate you posting the entire article. Really interesting read.
As for the subject, the difference between Wall Street and Silicone Valley is Wall Street accepts that they have illegal activities, immoral choices, assholes, drugs, and greed. Silicone Valley rejects those things exists in their world and tries to have show that innovation is the most important goal. They are lying.
JR, an artist that plastered large portraits of Palestinian and Isrealis in both cities. Groups tried to tear down portraits of the opposing group. They had to stop because they realized they really couldn't tell who was Isreali or Palestinian by their faces alone. This was in 2007.
They also have one of the most sophisticated communications technology. They had spies everywhere. 2,900 people attacked and they didn't have one spy to tell them a date...
According to The New York Times, Israeli officials had obtained detailed attack plans more than a year before the attack. The document described operational plans and targets, including the size and location of Israeli forces, and raised questions in Israel about how Hamas learned these details.
The Times reported, "Hamas followed the blueprint with shocking precision."
In July 2023, a member of the Israeli signals intelligence unit alerted her superiors that Hamas was conducting preparations for the assault, saying, "I utterly refute that the scenario is imaginary". An Israeli colonel ignored her concerns.
INCLUDED: All full-time and regular part-time Senior Process Executive-Data/Music Generalist (SPEs) and Project/Process Specialists/Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) employees employed by the Employers in YouTube Music Content Operations who are employed to work from the Employer’s (Cognizant Technology Solutions U.S. Corporation) facility at 717 E. Parmer Lane in Austin, Texas. Eligible to vote are those in the unit who were employed during the payroll period immediately preceding the issuance of this Decision.
EXCLUDED: Team Leads, temporary employees, seasonal employees, managerial employees, professional employees, confidential employees, guards and supervisors as defined in the Act.
If their contracts have a set expiration like what Google claims then, as temporary or season employees, they are excluded from being part of the Alphabet Workers Union-Communications Workers of America.
Thanks for the link and info. So I tried to find something dealing with hiring agencies at irs.gov using site:irs.gov but couldn't find anything. For financials, shouldn't that fall under Cognizant since they are the ones paying the workers?
Cognizant chief communications officer Jeff DeMarrais said in an email to The Verge that the team will be given seven weeks of pay and opportunities to find another role within Cognizant.
It seems like they are employees of Cognizant instead doing YouTube Music work.
The team of more than 40 went on strike in February last year, demanding changes to Google’s return-to-work policy.
Can they prove they are needed if they weren't needed for over a year?
“Contracts with our suppliers across the country routinely end on their natural expiry date.”
Google or Alphabet (or whoever) probably gave Cognizant a contract with an expiration date for YouTube Music. After a year of being on strike, the contract expired. Does that still count as firing?
Filling offices is a priority to companies. That priority is important enough to Google to not give the right to work remotely to these employees.
If you read the lawsuit Nintendo is suing because Yuzu acknowledges their software can't run without the Switch's decryption keys. Yuzu also has instructions to extract the decryption keys on their website. So Yuzu is not completely reverse engineering how the Switch runs games.
Or if you're a child in America, the number 1 cause of death is murder.
