This is a young founder acting young, but with a bankroll. He may not grow out of it. The tech industry hampers the painful development of emotional maturity. It doesn’t prevent it, but if you want to avoid it, retreating into a world of expensive toys which do your bidding is a great way to do that.
- dcreater 1y agoI heard that they had intentionally designed the ads this way with a ton of whitespace to elicit graffiti and the media attention that comes with it. They engineered it apparently. Even if thats true I really hope that that marketing gimmick doesnt actually translate to sales
- comrh 1y agoIt reeks of desperation for a product no one wants.
- e1g 1y agoKnowing who is behind this campaign, 90% chance the extra white space, the graffiti, and this article were all commissioned by them intentionally. Luckily this did not translate to sales, or we’d have another wave of Cluely BS copycats.
