Yep, I've managed people out before. It takes months though, you can't just fire someone for something their friend has told them.

And a lawyer would be very interested in a long and expensive lawsuit, and would do it for no win, no fee as well.

Is he changing jobs or changing company? If he's moving company, no big deal.

Also, if he's at a company where being seen as an open person is seen as a negative, you've not fucked up, he's better off out of there.

I worked for Native Instruments at the time so it would have been Absynth, FM7 and Reaktor. Tried to give them to him to get some PR, but he wouldn't accept and paid full price iirc.

If they were used, it would have been on Amnesiac or Hail to the Thief I guess, but I'm never sure how much hardware vs software they use because they have loads on stage but also had PowerBooks running.. and Reaktor can reproduce pretty much anything if you know what you're doing.

Reply to Scientists Make Major Breakthrough In Sustainable Hydrogen Production by BernieEcclestoned

>University of Michigan scientists developed a new kind of solar panel achieving 9% efficiency in converting water into hydrogen and oxygen – mimicking a crucial step in natural photosynthesis. Outdoors, it represents a major leap in the technology, nearly 10 times more efficient than solar water-splitting experiments of its kind.

>But the biggest benefit is driving down the cost of sustainable hydrogen. This is enabled by shrinking the semiconductor, typically the most expensive part of the device. The team’s self-healing semiconductor withstands concentrated light equivalent to 160 suns
