    Maybe a little naive for this but given the decades Jeff Dean and Sanjay have been contributing to so many things in the industry and never heard a bad word about either, they neve…

    Any YouTube video with him is filled with fawning comments. People love it when others tell them what they want to hear. He'll be able to do his schtick for a long time, well after…

    I don't love that they have so much money and wish we had much more progressive taxes and no way out of estate taxes, but people really are letting the pure assholes like Elon off …

    And this is a great way for Optimus to get around, so you can add another 1b sales right there.

    There's a lot more than that of the non-float that people can't wait to sell. This is just front-running the insiders.

    Google has always shed researchers but they still have way more of them than everybody else.

    Profitability is never a constraint for Elon companies. He has always been able to be able to extract money from the middle east, government, banks, retail investors (or these same…

    This has also one of the arguments against AC in France, shame on you for wanting to moving the hot air from inside to outside.

    Google has been bleeding talent for decades, though few people have ever heard of them before they left google. Like when John Giannendra left it was the first time I'd ever heard …

    The whole IPO was designed to be like a short squeeze where index funds have to buy soon but there's not enough shares. For the little float that's available they are weighting it …

    There's not enough shares being traded to meet the requirements of the index funds. This is exactly why they had the rules of about having enough float and not being added to the i…

    People are well incentivized to gas him up or they don't want to cross his cultists so it's just easier to go along with it. Just listen to him talk with confidence about something…

    Elon or his cousins will have to start a new company with some fresh funding soon he is running out of opportunities to merge one company into another together with ever worse fina…

    It's not just the scrolling, the posting side too. They all randomly boost one of your posts so suddenly tons of feedback (especially noticable when I tried threads) and then you t…

    I remember they successfully got Google out of a military contract in the first admin (and briefly vilified by the right for that). that's not going to work now. Workers have a lot…
