He has to be finished as CEO even despite all the keyman risk right?
ro_bit•15m ago
What difference is there between this and other tech CEOs who have had relationships with their staff? Musk and Gates come to mind
u1hcw9nx•12m ago
He is very hands on. He has more direct reports than other other tech CEOs. I think close to 40. Someone else stepping up or stepping in has things to do.

In addition Nvidia is incredibly tech-heavy company. You need another EE with experience with AI chips and business. Just having good experienced businessman looking at simplified powerpoints before making decisions of technical issues is probably not enough.

certainly sounds like that's the case, yup

Brin was absolutely next level.
jm4•13m ago
I would think so. We can probably expect more to keep trickling out until he has no other choice but to resign. The spy thing was already bad enough. Now we find out he's hooking up with one of his direct reports? Seems like he runs a toxic workplace.

He's trying to be a Japanese businessman from the 1980s.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C5%8Dsuke_Uno#Economics

  Uno was highly criticized in public not for having a Geisha mistress, as it was a traditional leisure practice expected of politicians and wealthy men but instead due to relating his poor financial habits in the Japanese Diet as compared and paralleled to the ungenerosity towards his former Geisha mistress.

Not surprising at all. Many tech CEOs are like this; Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Sergey Brin, Eric Schmidt and so on. People don’t stop idolizing these people, they don’t even think that this is a problem.
nerdstomper•10m ago
> People don’t stop idolizing these people, they don’t even think that this is a problem.

They'd go as far as to call it a virtue. Silicon Valley is the greatest domestic enemy this country has ever seen. They've built entire machines to protect, reward, and normalize antisocial activity.

Not much different from other industries, other than scale and reach. Took many decades to regulate out killing workers and customers for profit, some are still barely regulated.

What's the point of being a billionaire if you can't sleep with whoever you want?

Huang Holds 3.4% of Nvidia and has no dual-class voting rights. He can't prevent getting removed if the board thinks it's time.

I assumed he’d survive the one affair. A second one? Now I’m not so sure.
b112•13m ago
Looks to me like he has a target on his back, and people are just throwing stuff at it now. This could have come out years ago, if it is true. No reason not to. None, not in this day and age.

So it's all opportunistic, at this point.

> Both Mr. Huang and Ms. Powell are married to other people

Dumb language question: if Powell is married, why isn’t she referred to as Mrs. Powell in this article?

eigenspace•7m ago
Ms. is the not-so-new address that is agnostic about the married status of the woman.

Many people find it demeaning to address women differently depending on whether or not they are married, especially when we don't do the same for men.

grepex•4m ago
That's funny, I've met men who think it isn't fair and wish we got a title change too!
Scharkenberg•7m ago
"Mrs." is falling out of style. I kind of get it. "Mistress" is a loaded word, if you think about it.
grepex•5m ago
Ms. is just a safe neutral default.

> It is generally considered polite to address a woman by Ms. rather than Mrs., unless the preference of the woman in question is clearly known. This is especially true in written communication, as dictated by professional etiquette.[1]

If his personal security detained the person videoing them and offered them money to sign an NDA, it feels like something they had experience with. Could this just be the tip of the iceberg?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mrs.#Modern_usage

“It is generally considered polite to address a woman by Ms. rather than Mrs., unless the preference of the woman in question is clearly known. This is especially true in written communication, as dictated by professional etiquette. […] It is normally considered correct to address a woman as Ms. [Lastname], regardless of her marital status.”
