I thought the same, kinda sad isn't it? Palm's email to Apple was like a teacher talking to an unruly teen, but not insultingly so.
So what do we learn? Either Karma isn't real, or being a childish bully is the key to success. I'm not sure I like either answer.
- voytec 2y ago> Either Karma isn't real If you look not at the companies, but individuals...
- wkat4242 2y agoKarma is just not the only factor. It sure helps but Palm just had the wrong strategic vision and didn't have great marketing. WebOS was not a bad idea but they didn't manage to sell it well.
- tessierashpool9 2y agofrom my own experience and observations i'd say anti-karma is real. you do good, fate will punish you for it ;)
- npteljes 2y agoOnly the western mainstream version of karma is supposed to work within one's lifetime. The proper spiritual interpretations of it usually span multiple lifetimes. Not a huge believer myself, but I agree with your conclusion, this kind of short-acting karma surely doesn't exist. As demonstrated daily by the many horrible influential people.
- AbstractH24 2y agoI’d say Christianity relies pretty heavily on fears of the guy in the sky and what happens after you die What happens when religion loses its place in western society though. Hummmm
- npteljes 2y agoYes it does, but even this version is not the quick "what goes around, comes around" what people casually think karma is, or what media like /r/instantkarma reinforces (albeit playfully).
