Would you be interested in a "last" editorial?

Uttar, did you honestly expect anything but a resounding YES from this crowd?

I'll throw in my "Yes, please," too.

 

Uttar:
Sorry to see you go, always liked your articles & other contributions.
But it's understandable, there's more to life, e.g. more important then GPUs.

On topic:
Write up whatever you want, I really couldn't choose between the topics you offered.

Cheers & all the best,
Mac

 

Count me among those who would be pleased and honored to copyedit your work, Uttar. Your voice is important to the community.

 

Damn. I've always thought that there's no such thing as an "accidential leaks"?!? Guess I've read too much into situations, but I've really thought that 99.5% of all 'leaked' information is being leaked with very deliberate intention?

Please, by god, do write it all out! This is really, really interesting!

So is the editorial a go

 

The latest post on GPU:RW says it'll take a week or two for the editorial.

 

Are you saying they knew for a fact a particular employee leaked info to you, and so fired him? If so, that's certainly not your fault. These guys know the score when they take these jobs. You leak-you're fired. If that's the case then I imagine if he hadn't leaked to you he'd have leaked to someone else. Unless you took him to dinner and drugged his drinks and plied him with cheap scotch and call girls until he loosened up and spilled his guts into your tape recorder (along with the meal), I'd say your conscience is clean...

But if you're saying they had no idea who leaked the info you are talking about but decided to start firing people on General Principle because the info got out "somehow," and you know they fired the wrong person, that just means the guy's boss was an idiot and he's probably better off working somewhere else anyway. Again, not your fault, IMO. Perhaps, too, the boss had it in mind to fire the guy anyway and just used your info as a pretext. Or perhaps the guy got fired for some other reason altogether and told you that as it is was less embarrassing. Just speculating.

It might be interesting for your article if you'd speculate on what it is you think motivates employees to risk their jobs by leaking sensitive company info they know better than to leak.
