2018-01-08 23:02:28 UTC

2018-01-08 23:02:31 UTC  

i dont see how he loses

2018-01-08 23:04:46 UTC  

Whats the damore suit

2018-01-08 23:04:59 UTC  

James Damore, the ex-googler

2018-01-08 23:05:06 UTC  

yeah, that

2018-01-08 23:05:13 UTC  

Oh the big nose guy from a few months ago?

2018-01-08 23:05:28 UTC  

Went on Joe Rogans podcast?

2018-01-08 23:05:46 UTC  

well, he's been on a ton of podcasts/shows but yeah

2018-01-08 23:05:54 UTC  

fired for wrong think, basically

2018-01-08 23:06:15 UTC  

When you're one guy Vs Google there's not much you can do

2018-01-08 23:06:42 UTC  

well now it's him and Dhillon Law Group against Google 😃

2018-01-08 23:07:20 UTC  

press conference from earlier and vertical video of awesomeness

2018-01-08 23:34:59 UTC  

"The Labor Department is separately investigating systemic pay discrimination at the company.

Google says it hasn’t found a pay gap in its own analysis."

2018-01-08 23:35:28 UTC  

google thinks discrimination = pay gap 🤔

2018-01-08 23:35:59 UTC  

"pay" discrimination

2018-01-08 23:36:02 UTC  

discriminating on pay for the same job is against the law

2018-01-08 23:36:41 UTC  

(i assume) google is doing company wide statistics rather than on the job type

2018-01-08 23:36:55 UTC  

the widest

2018-01-08 23:37:05 UTC  

and even job type isn't fine grain enough to discover discrimination

2018-01-08 23:37:34 UTC  

this is middleschool level regression

2018-01-08 23:37:37 UTC  

It's probably the pay statistics for each individual job. Wouldn't make sense otherwise

2018-01-08 23:37:40 UTC  

its not, experience, education, working hours, output, etc are all variables

2018-01-08 23:38:22 UTC  

my wife is a stay at home mom that does photography on the side, she makes a few grand a year... PAY GAP IS REAL

2018-01-08 23:39:03 UTC  

obviously the court system is going to go even more detailed than that (actually dissecting their hiring and pay practices rather than just looking at statistics) , google probably just said it for PR

2018-01-08 23:39:26 UTC  

I mean I don't doubt Google pays fairly

2018-01-08 23:40:36 UTC  

they have the money to work on several large open source projects which have little to no ROI by themselves

2018-01-08 23:41:04 UTC  

so i don't doubt they have the room to discriminate

2018-01-08 23:42:03 UTC  

The discrimination he's talking about is probably more about socially in the workplace and projects the people in question are assigned to you know

2018-01-08 23:42:26 UTC  

rather than pay directly

2018-01-08 23:43:29 UTC  

wait wait wait.... but the investigation was because of the memo where it was stated they were favoring women and minorities, not the other way around

2018-01-08 23:43:47 UTC  

so it was a "fixing" the pay gap issue

2018-01-08 23:44:12 UTC  

Yeah which would be discriminating against white conservative males I think was the point

2018-01-08 23:44:22 UTC  

The pay gap issue which is all hot gas

2018-01-08 23:44:39 UTC  

not white male conservatives, white people, males, and conservatives

2018-01-08 23:44:56 UTC  

close enough

2018-01-08 23:45:03 UTC  

the article diddnt really address that and just bundled them all into the same category

2018-01-08 23:45:14 UTC  

I believe in capitalism. Wouldn't the guys being discriminated be leaving the company by themselves?
