Quote from: HVC on October 18, 2025, 08:46:29 PMSure there is. Pay one person to do 2 peoples work load, call it efficiency gains and call it a day. Short term thinking as your turnover will spike, and if done especially poorly leads to lost knowledge, but that's the next CEOs problem.
QuoteSure. If all the conditions you described are met, the CEO has effectively enriched himself at the shareholders' expense. My impression is you're repeating a Hollywood scriptwriter's version of how businesses operate.

Incidentally, I'm surprised to see how fondly Tron:Legacy is looked upon, but I guess it's old enough that it qualifies as nostalgia for a lot of people. I remember it being very pretty, but very boring. Also one of the "pioneers" on using terrible CGI deaging, just for the sake of it.
Kickass soundtrack, though. Always fire it up whenplaying sci-fi games (it's a Stellaris staple).
You think you are old, I saw the original Tron on release in the movie theatre and took my kids to Legacy.

It has fuck all to do with Canada, as I am sure that your very thorough Google search informed you.
So I guess the Canadian who was interviewed on CBC who said he made it was just lying. Thank God I have you to set me straight.
I suspect that the issue isn't that he was lying, but rather that you weren't paying attention. This isn't the first, nor will it be the last, time you can thank Hod I set you straight.

Yes, you need a 'mongers' on some wheels.![]()
Thought I find those bicycle calculations rather suspect, too efficient.
