I've only just realised there is someone who is in a hotdog colour-matched suit stood right next to him.

They make a comment about it in the skit.

That's Zach Kanin, the co-writer for most of Tim Robinson's shows

He’s trying to find the “guy” who ratted him out.

Or just the "guy" that's willing to take one for the team

Ah yes the old "Mike Johnson speaker of the house defense" of claiming you know nothing about it.

Let's see how this plays out for him...

Reminds me of the interview where the Roblox CEO addressed the rampant pedophilia on the platform as "we see it as an opportunity."

Business people are just absolutely sociopathic monsters.

Yes I think I saw the guy who did that, he ran into the washroom and can be found above the sink

TomMasz@piefed.social · 17 pts · 81d

Has he checked a mirror?

tidderuuf@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 81d

Is he reenacting his favorite scene from I Think You Should Leave?

"We're all trying to find the guy who did this!"

It's not as if we don't know.

It's been twelve years since the leaks came out about FB using people's news feeds to manipulate them, after all. This is Big Tech's end goal, to take away any agency you might have around use of tech products.

I hope someone leaks/lays out how it went down in detail.

Slopya Sloptella, who's slopped his way through years of market-wank-slop at Microslop is upset his company employees are slop oriented and single-non-minded about their slop?

NO @#%ING WAY

Here

The document we reported on was not some random document. As we wrote at the time, the strategy document was written by Microsoft executives Omar Shahine, Jakob Werner, and some sort of AI writing tool. This information is in our original article and is readily available to Nadella. We wrote: “The document seen by 404 Media lists Shahine and another executive, Jakob Werner, as its authors. The document itself, however, notes that it was ‘co-created turn-by-turn with AI. Human verified every sentence.’”

Shahine is the leader of Microsoft’s Scout project, as he has written numerous times on his own blog, on his LinkedIn, and on Microsoft’s own announcement of the software. In attempting to distance himself from his own company’s executives and strategy documents, Nadella has revealed that he either does not know how to read or does not know what is happening with some of the company’s highest-profile products.

404Media is the one outlet I don't regret giving my e-mail address to.
