"You'll never have to eat lunch alone--or at a bad place--again"

Classic SV

Funnier when you consider what Loopt amounted to.

Wow red polo with a green polo underneath and double popped collars

That’s a brave look

Wow, unbelievable find

incredible

what a find

whoa

To a degree that feels intentional.

The slurping of the kool-aid is not limited to SV. I've seen it at a couple of companies I've worked at in the past. Both were media/post type of studios where one you've probably heard of before and the other probably not. They both had employees that had their tongues stained the color of the kool-aid they drank. Seeing people wearing the SWAG shirts and hats of the company they work for in the office is just so cringe to me.

I don't think it's Kool-Aid, I think it's "Apple has notoriously low salaries for a FAANG and OpenAI will probably have a trillion-dollar IPO". You can see right through Altman's charade and still want to work for him for equity.

We are all long aware that Jobs was a flawed individual.

But he made good products that most people like to use. That was GP they were getting at with "he wants to be Steve Jobs."

You don't need to hamfist that into the conversation every times Jobs' name comes up.

IMO it's not a outrage/apologist thing anymore, just played out and irrelevant. There are so many current problems that we don't need to dig up things about Jobs - or defend him. Let's fix-forward.

Altman has far worse issues, considering his alleged actions towards his sister.

No need to be disrespectful.
