My thoughts
 Glassdoor used to be an excellent source for real reviews from employees, and that was only possible because of the anonymity. Removing that seems to invalidate the whole reason for the site's existence. Very bizarre choice from Glassdoor, and the company's response (about halfway through the article) doesn't inspire any confidence.

Summary
Lumafield (who make the CT scanner LTT now has) CT scanned the Stanley Quencher cup, recently finding controversy for having lead inside of it (but spoiler alert, it's not anywhere it's going to touch the drink). A great informational series exploring the product, why the lead is used and how it's protected from the liquid inside, with some fantastic explanational images!

My thoughts
This is a really great look at what we might be able to get from LTT Labs in the future. How do the internals of various products work (computer parts, or their own creator labs products), especially in areas that it's hard to see non-destructively. They could also potentially find manufacturer claims that could be verified.

Umm that literally makes Glassdoor a pointless product. Wonder if some large company was getting bad reviews and wanted to pressure Glassdoor? Maybe everyone should drop a review for Glassdoor on their site.

wasn't there a very similar news some time ago?
 
basically saying "glassdoor are snitches"?
 
im surprised anyone is still using it at this point... 
 
(but honest question,  it might have been another,  similar review site 🤔)

Wouldn't it be hilarious if they tried to cross-examine a chatbot, though?

Summary
Air Canada has been ordered to pay compensation to a grieving grandchild who claimed they were misled into purchasing full-price flight tickets by an ill-informed chatbot.

My thoughts
It's a pretty wild argument to suggest that the chatbot hosted on your website is a separate legal entity. I think my only issue is that this was only in B.C. small claims court, so we may need a bigger legal case to establish an actual legal precedent.
