I remember when this lady built a nursery near her office but wouldn’t setup a daycare for yahoo staff or allow wfh.

She took a lot of shit for that move. Kind of sad that she had every opportunity to connect with her kids and yet doesn’t know them at all.

When they stopped being run by engineers and all became ran by MBA’s.

That’s not to say there aren’t MBA’s with engineering degrees etc but they didn’t actually build anything themselves. They sycophanted their way to these positions of power and they’ll never be able to bring the wonder and passion into tech because they have none. They have passion for business but if you get turned on by privacy policies scam story telling, who boy the world is your oyster right now.

Now you could argue zuck was a founder engineer and he’s terrible as well. I’d say he’s a bad example at being anything.

So there are exceptions. Sergey Brin is an example of an engineer that drifted but Larry was the brains. Just like woz to Steve, just like Bill to Balmer.

Always two. One genius. One cheerleader. The cheerleader is always trapped by what is making them wealthy to parrot.

Who is Sundar Puchai’s cheerleader? Prabhakar Raghavan? We are so far away from a Larry Page keeping an idiot like Sergey in line.

Or Satya? A sub contracted Sam Altman maybe?

There is no culture except the culture of business to these guys. Quiet strategic relationships, reduction of ego which means no risk, no research, no bravado, and no muscle for creating.

without nationality, without religious bias... and you call us criminals.
You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us
and try to make us believe it's for our own good,

Homelab is so 2025. We’re all building EMF pulsing devices in 2026 in preparation of the redacted.
