    Steve Jobs was an asshole, if you are going to idolize someone make it Woz.

    Fuck Steve Jobs.

      I love Steve-O’s story of buying a phone with Wozniak.

      They go to the Apple store, Woz walks up to the counter and says “I’d like to use my employee discount to buy a phone.” The employee asks if he has his card, he says “no but I know my employee number.” The employee then asks for the number, expecting to get something with multiple digits, and Wozniak just replies with “One.”

      If that isn’t the biggest dick energy response to a question I’ve ever heard.

        Then the cashier said “that’s not a valid number” and asked him to leave. The end.

    Jensen wasn’t personally responsible for the AI boom. It was a once-in-a-career coincidence. He’s just another corporate tool.

    We need to stop assuming CEOs are geniuses. They are just average at best but with antisocial tendencies.

    I’m becoming convinced that every tech-bro head of a company is functionally retarded.

    Tim Sweeney finds another way to NOT learn when to shut the fuck up.

    Tim Sweeney doesn’t want to imagine a world where powerful people face consequences for their actions.

    People with money are putting a lot of “spin” on this story already. Social media posts like “so what if a CEO has affairs, if he’s doing a good job??” etc.

    They all conveniently ignore the Affair With a Chinese Spy part. That’s the part where he was not doing a good job, and it’s an important part.

      Well, I’d say his affair with a subordinate was problematic as well, but the treason is pretty important.

    These guys really do love the smell of their own farts. Every one of these CEOs are bullshit artists who got lucky.
