@jaykuo Why yes, but isn't this also a clear contempt of court?

He sure seems wiling to have the final confrontation upfront - which might be a mistake, given that not yet all parts of the executive have been "cleansed"...

@dsilverman @thomasfuchs I don't see how fairness in estimation would change anything about the actual facts.

After all, we're talking about the company behind successes like Clippit and Cortana...

@pettter Excellent is an understatement.

I was particularly struck by this thought:

"You’re basically just shaking the Magic 8 Ball over again until (if you haven’t gotten frustrated and quit first) it randomly serves up an answer you like, at which point you stop asking."

Ultimately (and as many people have already pointed out) this will lead to a wish-wash of regress-to-the-mean model that is no better than a horoscope oracle.
