Now Apple's accusing its former partner of coaching employees to walk out the door with company files — and Peter's got thoughts on exactly how not to do that when you leave your own job (hint: never sync your work iPhone to your personal iCloud, you absolute rookie). Meanwhile, Meta's facing a lawsuit alleging its layoff algorithm had a very specific taste for people with disabilities and medical leave — which raises the fun question of who you actually sue when the firing squad is a spreadsheet.\nThen a federal judge takes a flamethrower to the Trump administration's IRS settlement, referring the president's own lawyers to the bar for what she calls a fraud on the court — Peter calls it \"the most fun decision of the week.\" And because summer isn't all lawsuits, Peter and Laura close out with the internship crisis nobody prepares you for: what to actually do when you're bored out of your skull and too scared to admit it.\nCorporate espionage, algorithmic layoffs, a judge with zero patience, and career advice for the terminally bored intern. Your weekly drink with a lawyer and a journalist is served.\nRead the Demis Hassabis Proposal for a Frontier AI Framework: https://tinyurl.com/4hkhbj4n","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/h68Ux-68tZkpTFe8el3O0Db6g5OoDRotoszirBUrbeo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS84MmZi/NDkwZDdkNDcxZjAy/ODhhZjUzNzkxZjBl/NDA3NS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
