    In January, Humane laid off about 10 employees. A month later, a senior software engineer was let go after she questioned whether the Ai Pin would be ready by April. In a company meeting after the dismissal, Mr. Chaudhri and Ms. Bongiorno said the employee had violated policy by talking negatively about Humane, two attendees said.

        There’s only one way in the US, where most employment is at-will, to have a contract that prevents getting fired for a completely boneheaded reason.

        /me bursts into chorus of L’Internationale and is dragged to the gate by admins, off-key singing the entire track listing of Chumbawamba’s “English Rebel Songs 1381–1914” dopplering off into the distance as I go.
