@MikeLevin@paulg They have become real indifferent. The guy made off 1.4B people did not care , $400M jet did not care he decided to loot tax payers and these folks are deaf and dumb!
Okay this now reminds me of @qcom acquiring Snaptrack for $1B in 1999 in QCOM stock. One year later the stock was at $2 or $3 . All employees were wiped out! Sounds like we have right ingredients of the same this time. Back then so many so many pundits praised Qcom’s strategy!
One of the things that makes @SpaceX so valuable is how valuable it is. The Cursor acquisition costs materially less in dilution because of SpaceX’s high valuation.
SpaceX’s ability to do economically, strategically, and technologically accretive acquisitions is an important component of its value.
There is enormous value inherent to a company with a high value particularly when it is controlled by an entrepreneur that the most talented people want to work for and partner with.
Value begets value.
Talent begets talent.
@vkhosla@Stanford@Google@sundarpichai i never found value in sitting and listening to speakers from the podium on their experiences.. i always found tremendous excitement when i sit with them 1:1 and talk about their experiences. It shows thtey took their time and genuinely care. msg is lost in noise.
@elonmusk Wtf cursor is another MODEL company! Seriously Gwynne at this point deserves to be fired for not doing her homework! Im seriously concerned about SpaceX investors on the crap execs are falsely stating. These guys need to be liable for the grift!
@cristianoamon may be @tim_cook was right about you afterall. Furniture store salesman tactics :) lmao. This post and the follow on comments sings wonderful praises about the company and culture. You are making Irwin proud!
Qualcomm is a piece of shit supplier to anyone trying to innovate on the edge, especially startups.
My client is trying to buying ~500,000 of SoCs and wants them to be American because patriotism.
Instead Qualcomm has them waiting months to even get pricing, just to be quoted with 80% margins at lead times that are not competitive with overseas suppliers.
They're about to ship the M1: 37g, IMU, Camera, NPU, CPU, WiFi/BT, entirely hardware synchronized and designed for mass-manufacturing.
Hundreds of thousands pre-ordered, scaling to millions, for next-gen devices for robotics, automotive, night vision...
Client wants to build American but the way Qualcomm is engaging right now means we have to keep building perception and compute systems with overseas suppliers.
Mediatek priced it better and more competitive lead times.
The China suppliers such as Rockchip are even faster but cant do that.
