Once upon a time, I was looking forward to open source Mojo, but over years that interest has waned. And with latest acquisition event, the entire thing might as well be dead and buried.

Why is that?

It’s now on the whims of Qualcomm, a for-profit company.

What did you think Modular was prior to the acquisition?

I mean, I can understand not being on board with Qualcomm and thinking the stewardship may go awry, but the reason given doesn’t seem to fit a company that raised multiple rounds of funding

Sorry, should've put this:

It’s now on the whims of Qualcomm, a for-profit company, who might be only interested in the talent and not what that talent has been doing at Modular.

If you are talking about the Qualcomm acquisition that was a different Modular.
