alt Hacker News> do people genuinely believe HR rules plays as a role here when it's regarding CEO
At most companies it does. HP. Intel. McDonald’s.
The only consistent exception is Musk.
That said, I disagree this is why Jensen was fired. The national-security cover-up is a far bigger deal.

Could be, but that requires time to investigate. Banging employee is different because the board would just have to ask Jensen if the reports are true.

Those are just your average CEOs. Jensen is the founder and CEO of NVDA for 30 years and has been seen as one of the backbone of this AI era. No one at this level ever faced this level of scrutiny and consequence.
Even Bill Clinton faced relatively minor consequences, considering presidents should be held to a higher moral standard
