#12Weird coincidence that it’s the exact same amount that Research In Motion paid to poach top engineers from Google / Microsoft back in the 2000’s to help grow their Blackberry network capacity (assuming the Blackberry movie is accurate)

#13I find it hard to believe it’s the case for an average researcher, we know their pay package for most L6 engineers is a bit under 1m. But maybe a “fellow” or distinguished engineer?

They are very legit and well researched articles, probably the most accurate in terms of tech news(semaphore is pretty good as well). However, for niche audience news, subscription is probably the only sustainable way to build a business
this is not my observations. I researched few news stories like that, and it was like "someone told someone" without a chance of verification. I bet this one is also like that.
Not naming sources is one thing, but which news stories from The Information were false? IMO they have an amazing track record, to the point where half the tech news you read is some journalist's distorted summary of something they read in The Information. There's a reason they can charge $400 per year and people pay.

Most of these people presumably have PhDs from top tier universities. So... don't think you'd be able to jump aboard this train without going back to school for a bit.

I didn't say "false", I said rumors which are not possible to verify.
