Yeah, but he DOES have the necessary experience to know and he's pointing out that there IS a flaw, so your hypothetical doesn't apply to the actual case here.

They're trying to use his license being temporarily lapsed to keep him from embarrassing them with the knowledge he's had the entire time.

Let an AI speak on your behalf

No thanks. It's bad enough that Zuckerberg is trying to take my data and spy on me, I'm not gonna make him my spokesperson too.

This random person from the internet agrees.

Entrenchment is an innately conservative attitude, though, and politically conservative people are a lot more likely to punish you for speaking truth to power.

Outside of your job though, the company you work for has no obligation to protect you as you aren't acting as an agent of that company on your own time

They can and will fire you for posting things they don't like on social media on your own time, whether you're right or wrong, though. With the justification that you ARE acting as a representative of the company.

If I had a dollar for every time someone got fired for saying anything remotely supportive about Palestine or criticizing cops for being bastards, I'd have enough to buy Boston.

And you could get several consoles with dozens of games each for what you get in wages and benefits for those one console three games fees.

He's the king of cheap shots and categorically refuses to admit he's ever done anything wrong or failed at anything. Plus he's a fascist.

He's fair game for even the cheapest of shots.

A Koeniggsegg handles much better and is well-built, though. It's meant for the track and it does that well.

In contrast, a Tesla Model S is an unnecessarily quick and overpriced family car with a dubious safety record due in part to having the build quality of a Yugo.

I'm saying that there's being open minded, which is a good thing, and then there's wasting your time trying to talk sense into people blinded by hero worship/follower identify to the point of being unreachable and/or arguing in bad faith.

The latter is a bad thing that I'm trying to become better at avoiding but am doing right now with you and was doing before with Definitely Not A Fan Boy Nuh-uh.
