Commissar SFLUFAN Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 The current speculation is that this isn't the "real" reason for the resignation and that it might involve the VASTLY more serious allegation of insider trading of Intel stock prior to the Spectre/Meltdown stories breaking.

Reputator Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 I'm sorry, but you got the thread title wrong. It should read: "Intel CEO forced to resign after letting his Netburst in someone's Front Side Bus." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of their own rules, it is hard to deny superiors. Like, you either get fucked by the king or you die like the peasant you are.

It's a policy that's in place to prevent workplace disruption/HR nightmares if the relationship goes sour. Personally, I'm VERY much in favor of policies like that.

Because I'm a firm believer in boundary separation between private life and professional life - it's as simple as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the normal rank and file employees, I'd be a little more lenient. But the big cheese at the company doing it can definitely cause a lot of problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom631 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 i would argue that the vast majority of people able to hold a job (esp at the professional level) are also able to maintain a proper boundary between their private and professional lives. I just feel that no company should not have the ability to tell me what I can and cant do on my own personal time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massdriver Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I don't buy it either. Something else was going on. It may be insider trading, or it may be that Intel has been asleep at the wheel while AMD built modular tech that is allowing them to take away server market share from Intel.

While I generally agree with that, this day and age everyone who gets together has naked pictures of each other and while it's probably not a problem most of the time a company is just one bad break up away from a photo of Suzy in accounting with a dildo in her ass getting passed around the office and a bunch of lawsuits arising because of it.
