- Comment on A 32-bit RISC-V processor made using molybdenum disulfide instead of silicon 4 weeks ago:
It seems like the prototype stage, or even before, is a good time to ask whether the materials are plentiful enough for this to be a major discovery or just a curiosity.
- Comment on Google offering ‘voluntary exit’ for employees working on Pixel, Android 2 months ago:
The difference here is that leaving would come with a severance package. Offering the same kind of severance package that a company would normally give during layoffs, but allowing people to selectively take it seems like a very reasonable way to handle reducing payroll.
I imagine that, if not enough people take the offer, they might then have layoffs so this seems like a pretty humane and nice way to handle a tough situation.
