does this particularly qualify him as a jerk? or just that the employee takes all the risk in employment, and capitalism does wrong by rewarding owners and management vs workers?
that he's showing off how rich he is as the result of throwing these people on the street is just part of the system weve built
He was a passionate climate activist, possibly still is.
He has since purchased a private jet under controversy.
His company now sponsors an F1 team.
He now seems to be a typical billionaire. You don’t get to be a billionaire without being ruthless.
He probably is now a rich jerk. When I worked at Atlassian and on boarded, one of the managers said if you are in a lift with Mike or Scott, and they asked what you do here, you better tell them what value you are bringing…
Mike was also very public he was proud Atlassian was not a high payer, he wouldn’t compete with Google etc on pay, at the time, yet people still wanted to work at Atlassian. Also didn’t hide the fact they absolutely utilised lack of local market knowledge for visa holders when nearly have the office was a temporary visa holder at the time.
a friend is using it but it seems like it breaks a lot.
ive got the scheduled claude-code running a couple scripts to find what events are going on round town and what food is cheap at grocery stores, but how much am i looking at the results? not super often. its publishing to a discord channel rhat makes it real hard to read
every election, americans make a big stink about how you belive in republicanism because democracy is evil, and that being a republic is somehow mutually exclusive with democracy
that he's showing off how rich he is as the result of throwing these people on the street is just part of the system weve built
