Zikan posted:lmao google google can't take any project to completion also I kind of wonder if maybe google had a realization of how unlikely it is that Lidar-based fully autonomous car tech would see mass market adoption and decided getting $250M and letting another company continue to burn money on it was win-win.

my hot take: they mutually decided to settle upon the realization that digging through the details of the tech in court would demonstrate that self-driving cars are still decades out, and neither company is anywhere near capable of doing what they claim

Shaggar posted:was goog claiming it was strange for a developer to checkout code? part of their argument was that he downloaded the whole repository (and tons of other stuff), and that contained everything relating to the project at the time, and gosh, shouldn't that ring some alarm bells? and the google ops guy basically said, no, why?

qirex posted:the softbank purchase valued uber down to 45 bil from 68, no way are they at 72 now the people who cashed out to softbank, including kalanick and google ventures, did so at a 45 bil valuation. the additional 1.25b cash infusion was at 69/72 bil valuation. yes it's stupid. also the whole practice of saying valuation = new money * new shares / (new shares + old shares) is total bullshit as we know anyway. the new shares are almost always loaded with ratchets and covenants and such that makes them worth anywhere from 1-5x common stock that employees and whoever else get.

mrmcd posted:I mean whether or not downloading the entire repo history is normal behavior for svn, he also then copied everything to a SD card. yeah, and also made an encrypted archive of it and deleted the checkout. the case against levandowski, that he was at least giving himself the ability to steal the checkout, is pretty solid. the problem for google is proving that uber actually accepted and used the checkout anyway, what happened post-checkout isn’t actually pertinent here. this came up at the trial because uber was trying to argue that google wasn’t taking the precautions with this information that you would expect if they actually thought of it as important trade secrets, because it’s a defense against the lawsuit to say “we didn’t take anything, but what you’re saying we took wasn’t secret anyway”. that’s why uber was pushing the whole “he copied the repository and you just let him????” angle
