Blows my mind that companies are still doing this, after seeing what an absolute fucking disaster it’s been for all the other companies that tried it last year.
The interviewer will be outside the staff member’s team and reporting line; instead, people may be interviewed by someone from “a pool of leaders who demonstrate strong AI capability and have aligned on the assessment criteria.
So it’s the AI inquisition?
Fucking Andrew yen, stop fucking with the service.
Workers need to seize what they’ve built and send these c-suite goons out into the desert.
us in the desert sure as hell dont want them either!
According to a colleague of mine, that is communism.
Yes, I know. 🤦🏻♀️
That is socialism, but close enough 😆
My FIL has gotten to the point where anything he doesn’t agree with is SocialistCommunist. Not two separate things, just a mushed together word.
You should have a chat with my colleague. He says that socialism is a stepping stone toward the end goal: communism. I say “that’s not how this works”. He digs in deeper.
I should clarify: His position is that socialism is communism; that there is no difference. He claims, without proof, that the goal of the DSA is to make the US communist.
I mean your colleague is totally right, Socialism is the transitional stage on societies’ way to a classless society, Communism.
Does your colleague have a solid definition of capitalism, communism, and socialism?
Stuff like “there are several organizations competing to sell you widgets but the organizations are owned by the workers instead of some faceless ghouls and far-away shareholders” sometimes doesn’t fit neatly into their model.
It can be an entry point into left wing thinking, because a lot of people resent management and other useless authorities.
This is a joke right?
Fucking hell. I just got everything working like I wanted and now I’m going to have to find another trustworthy email/password manager/file storage solution that is cross-compatible with Linux, MacOS, and potentially Windows on occasion.
This shit is getting really old.
The mistake you made was to rely on a non evil for-profit company for your software. Non evil companies, over time, will always turn to the dark side because in the end its always about the money
See Google as well
I switched from proton to tuta back when Yen started praising Trump. It told me everything I needed to know about him.
This is the last straw for me.
So what do y’all recommend for password manager, mfa, VPN and mail?
Preferably open source and European. I am happy to pay for services that are good.
I heard good things about Tuta mail.
I can only speak to the password manager, unfortunately. I’ve had very good luck with 1Password, which is Canadian.
Unfortunately, there’s this, though.
Not necessarily a deal-breaker for everyone, but a little…odd for a service you would expect to be very transparent about such things.
Tuta mail is amazing. Their calendar sucks but mail service is pretty good. I’ve been using both proton and tuta but I guess I will just use tuta from now on.
Here’s the full email (minus any formatting errors) according to Proton’s official account.
Dear,
AI is fundamentally changing how we build products and how we work. The capabilities Proton needs are evolving, and we must accelerate our transformation to remain competitive and deliver on our mission.
Getting this right is critical to Proton’s future. We need people who can translate AI’s capabilities into better products, stronger execution, and new ways of working—and who approach this change with curiosity, judgment, and urgency.
Last week, Andy interviewed more than 40 senior leaders across Engineering and Product to begin this process. We are now extending re-interviews more broadly to assess how people are adapting to AI and whether they have the capabilities and approach needed for Proton’s next phase.
This is also an opportunity to identify people who can lead the transformation. Those who demonstrate the ability to rethink their work, put AI into practice, and help others adapt may have opportunities to take on greater responsibility, accelerate their development as leaders, and shape Proton’s future.
What does this mean for you?
• Not everyone may be invited to a re-interview.
Given the scale and timeframe, interviews will be prioritized based on the organization’s assessment needs. Whether you receive an invitation should not, on its own, be interpreted as an individual outcome. Any decisions affecting your employment will be communicated separately.
• For those that get invited, re-interviews will take place November 4–11.
Further details about scheduling, format, and preparation will be shared centrally.
• Your interviewer will be outside your team and reporting line.
Interviewers will be selected from a pool of leaders who demonstrate strong AI capability and have aligned on the assessment criteria.
• Expect a discussion about how you think and work.
We want to understand how you apply AI to real problems, how it has changed your approach, where you see opportunities to improve, and how you expect your role to evolve.
• Come prepared with concrete examples.
Be ready to discuss what you have changed in your work, the results, what you have learned, what has not worked, and what you would do differently. A list of tools alone will not demonstrate this.
• Your ability to adapt matters alongside your current capabilities.
We will explore how you learn, challenge established ways of working, exercise judgment, and act on the opportunities AI creates.What are the consequences?
These re-interviews are consequential. Interviewers will document their assessments, which will inform the broader review of our organization and talent. That review may lead to changes in roles, responsibilities, and continued employment. Individual outcomes will be communicated directly once decisions are finalized.The process will also help us identify people ready to take on broader scope and leadership responsibilities as Proton evolves.
We recognize that this process creates uncertainty. We will be clear about what has been decided and what remains open, and communicate individual outcomes as soon as we can.
Please take the re-interview seriously and come prepared to discuss your actual work, your experience with AI, and how you can contribute to Proton’s next phase.
Today at 4pm CET, there will be a call for recipients of this email to answer a few more logistical questions.
The meeting will be taking place on this Proton Meet Link
Best,
🤮
yiiiiiikes…
God damn it.
This submission is only good for people who just read headlines, should have used a better source that doesn’t require signing up which I had to search for.
see this link in the post body? https://archive.is/GG1Br
That’s what you go to.
Or just search for one of the alternatives like I did that didn’t require signing up. Why give the one that does publicity?
the link i sent you is an archive link that does not require signing up. That is the point I was trying to get across. They OP posted the original source for the article, and then gave us a way to view it with the link in the body text of the post.
Because 404 media does good journalism and they have to make money somehow. Better subscription than you being the product.
Paywall or some sort of register block.
