Angry IT admin wipes employer's databases, gets 7 years in prison:
Han Bing, a former database administrator for Lianjia, a Chinese real-estate brokerage giant, has been sentenced to 7 years in prison for logging into corporate systems and deleting the company's data.
Bing allegedly performed the act in June 2018, when he used his administrative privileges and "root" account to access the company's financial system and delete all stored data from two database servers and two application servers.
[...] Surprisingly, Bing had repeatedly informed his employer and supervisors about security gaps in the financial system, even sending emails to other administrators to raise his concerns.
However, he was largely ignored, as the leaders of his department never approved the security project he proposed to run.
This was confirmed by the testimony of the director of ethics at Lianjia, who told the court that Han Bing felt that his organizational proposals weren't valued and often entered arguments with his supervisors.
In a similar case from September 2021, a former New York-based credit union employee avenged her supervisors for firing her by deleting over 21.3GB of documents in a 40-minute attack.
Anyone have stories of any interesting employee departures that they have exprienced?

with the current year added complication that "girl" might mean "boy", unless you're a supreme court justice, in which case you don't know the difference. 31 years from now is going to be unrecognizable.

You gender-confused transvestites have just got to accept the facts: 1) there are two sexes which are defined by genes, and 2) everyone else in the world knows this since they aren't t mentally disturbed. Get treatment.

Let's see, there are people with two X chromosomes, there are people with an X and a Y, there are people with two X's and one Y, and there are people with one X and two Y's. There's probably more combinations that I'm not aware of.
In your educated counting scheme, how does that add up to 2?

Better that you explain how that adds up to 69, or 'leventy 'leven, or 1024, or whatever the fuck the count is now.

Not only genetics, but body morphology. If you live in an "average" small town of 6200 residents, there will be one who was born with ambiguous genitalia: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5825923/ [nih.gov] If you attend a large college with 15000 students, on average there will be three students born with DSD. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5825923/ [nih.gov]
