Worst boss ever- Tech CEO applauds employee for selling family dog for the good of the company-
Look, we know all about slipping a Hearthstone game in now and then while working from home, but that doesn’t mean we’re not working hard. Some tech bosses, however, are convinced that their work-from-home employees are conspiring against them in ridiculous ways.
James Clarke, CEO of a digital marketing firm in Utah called Clearlink, recently held a virtual town hall to address concerns about the company’s forced return-to-office policy. He accused many of his employees of “quiet-quitting,” took a shot at working moms for spending time with their kids, and told employees they need to make sacrifices, like selling their dogs.
This policy reversal came after the company had assured employees in October that no one would be forced to return to the office, according …
After a 6 year brawl, Billy Mitchell is back in the record books even though Twin Galaxies ‘had all our ducks in a row’ for a courtroom showdown-
Almost exactly six years after being stricken from the record by the scorekeepers at Twin Galaxies, Billy Mitchell’s Donkey Kong’s scores are back in the (historical) books. In a statement released Tuesday, Twin Galaxies announced that it was restoring all of Mitchell’s scores to its official historical database but not, mind you, its modern leaderboards.
Mitchell was originally booted off of Twin Galaxies’ record books after a member of its forums named Xelnia—real name Jeremy Young—posted a thread disputing that Mitchell had attained his scores on original, unmodified hardware. Young alleged that Mitchell had actually gotten his scores via arcade emulator MAME, making them invalid for inclusion in the arcade category.

Xbox executives just cannot give a straight answer to questions about Tango Gameworks-
Earlier this year Microsoft announced the closure of four major studios on the same day, among which number was the Tokyo-based developer Tango Gameworks. Founded in 2010 by industry legend Shinji Mikami, best-known for creating Resident Evil, the studio developed the (excellent) Evil Within games as part of an eclectic output, with its most recent release the well-received rhythm beat-em-up Hi-Fi Rush.
Tango’s games were generally well-liked, and indeed Xbox executive Aaron Greenberg called the launch of Hi-Fi Rush (which was announced and released on GamePass on the same day) “a breakout hit for us and our players in all key measurements and expectations […] We couldn’t be happier with what the team at Tango Gameworks delivered with this surprise release.” I…

VIX soars to 52-week high as poll jitters unnerve investors
Caution over the ongoing Lok Sabha elections continued to unnerve investors as they rushed to hedge their positions, leading to India VIX rising for the eighth consecutive session on Monday. The volatilityindicator soared 13.6% to 16.6, registering its biggest single day rise in more than a year. This was also the highest level for the index in over a year.
Market experts said there is a feeling that the ongoing Lok Sabha elections may not be a walk in the park for the ruling government. This was not the case 2-3 weeks ago.
While many still believe the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA)-led by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will come back to power, there are divergent opinions on the number of seats that it can win.

Can Business and Climate Leaders Speak the Same Language-
(To get this story in your inbox, subscribe to the TIME CO2 Leadership Report newsletter here.)
This week I published a cover story profiling Sultan Al Jaber, the controversial president of the coming U.N. climate conference in Dubai. Al Jaber has received unrelenting criticism for running the conference, known as COP28, while also serving as the CEO of the United Arab Emirates’ state-owned oil company.
But Al Jaber doesn’t like to position himself as an oil CEO and instead prefers to talk about his experience co-founding Masdar, a renewable energy company, and, more generally, his experience in other business functions. “I bring finance experience, economics experience, project management, business development,” he told me.
This is certainly, in part,…
