CE does it for the lulz while CN does it because fuck it, why not?

The linked article has a table that gives 1.74 uW/cm^2. However glancing over the rest of the paper there's a ton of variability of output.

Tell me you didn't read the articles without telling me you didn't read the articles.

While on the one hand, that's true and has always been true for journalism, if you'd read the articles you'd realize that the content of them does contain truth and informs.

Did you read the articles? There are no polar opposites here. You'd know this if you read the actual articles instead of going off the headlines.

I mean, both are true, they just cover different stats. You can still a large number of layoffs while still having large job growth. They also cover stats available on different days. Indeed, the second article notes that one of the stats in the first article was wrong. It also indicates that predicted stats for December and November were both underestimated. December and January were both underestimated by half. Also, the layoffs came in fields that are different than the ones that saw growth.

These articles are complimentary, not contradictory as you'd seem to indicate. Perhaps you're just going off the titles and not actually reading the content?

That requires the people at the top to have the intelligence to hire a competent IT department and keep frequent enough back ups. This is a line of though most of American civilian leadership rejects outright. They see IT as nothing but a huge cost that can be cut at a moment's notice and then offshored to some third world country to "save money." A move which invariably costs them more money, but that's next quarter's problem.

It's almost like most of the time in history cutting edge tech tended to be unusable by the public until it matured enough to get businesses interested. Then they'd invest in a usability layer that was unimportant to the cutting edge research.

Lol. I think I still have a bunch of the old Slackware floppies somewhere.

I'll tell you what they're missing - maturity. They're acting like a spoiled child.
