03:41 schestowitz[TR2]; It has zero to do with nationalities and everything to do with costs. AKs job 1 as CEO was to lower IBMs costs and invest in Enterprise solutions and strategies before he exited stage right. He for the most part has accomplished that. First world employees have 3x the burden rate vs 2nd and third world employees, yet all three groups are just as productive! Thats why IBM has been replacing NA and Northern European employee
03:41 schestowitz[TR2]; s with Indian employees at a 1-1 replacement ratio. The burden rate savings of 66 cents per dollar spent on employees drops right to the bottom line. Everyone says AI is the great cost saver, but to date outsourcing personnel on a 1-1 basis far outpaces AI as a 66 cents return is the gift that just keeps on giving. Will AI catch on? Yes it will, but not for the reason you think. AI will catch on because NA and Northern Europe are r
03:41 schestowitz[TR2]; unning out of personnel who can be outsourced. Its a numbers game, and the CFO has run out of potential NA and Northern European targets. Whos next in the bullseye? Most likely legacy SW automation. Why? Write it once sell it multiple times

03:41 schestowitz[TR2]; OK... so, does that mean we are all (most) looking forward to see Rob Thomas take over the CEO role? He is damn white... will he favor the white folks?

15:07 schestowitz[TR2]; "This is reminiscent of some earlier EUIPO decision...</a></h5><blockquote>This is reminiscent of some earlier EUIPO decisions on proof of use, for example Supermac vs. Big Mac, which saw McDonald's lose their trademark "Big Mac" (EUTM 62638) due to an alleged lack of evidence for genuine use (later partially revoked by the General Court). Another example would be the decision on Apple's "Think Different" (T 26/
15:07 schestowitz[TR2]; 21, T 27/21, T 28/21, ECLI:EU:T:2022:250). In any case, the use requirement at the EUIPO has to be taken seriously, and it pays of to ask an expert in order to avoid losing a valuable brand, which you might just have taken for granted without documenting its actual use."

16:02 schestowitz[TR2]; Ray Dalio is the founder of Bridgewater the world's biggest hedgefund. Things are breaking down. No one can do anything. This is not something that can be fixed by the uniparty. Things are spiraling out of control. 3 attempts to eliminate a candidate is just too much.
