The idea that people are going to execute your arduous, detailed plan for world domination while you’re off doing something else seems a bit… unrealistic, to say the least.
- rbancroft 10mo agoIf it works, he gets credit. If it fails or never happens, someone else gets the blame. pretty classic.
- snapdeficit 10mo agoYou’re dead on. This kind of knee-deep gluey “advice” is the cult of personality that intel now thinks is effective planning. The head’s-down hard work of the 80’s and 90’s vanished when the media turned Grove into a reluctant folk hero and the bubble burst. I was there for 21 years, this guy is symptom of a much larger problem that is self-sustaining. Too many people trying to hide, do the bare minimum, and collect a fat paycheck, while people like this wave around grand plans that will never be touched. Yep I’m a cynic, two decades there fried my compassion circuits.
- tacker2000 10mo agoYea I found that weird. Who is going to execute your gradiose plan once you leave? Why would anyone else care so much as to see this through? Seems a bit arrogant and short sighted. He would be the only one that cares about this in the end.
