This is new. You mean the current right wing ruling party? It has a very large vocal, visible and genuine support from large population of India. That is democracy by any definition. This support is for progressive policies and anti-corrupt

It is kinda puzzling why Stadia was not sold off to Netflix. It would be a win situation for all - Google makes money, Netflix doesn't have to start from scratch for their next strategic move, Stadia gamers are not left stranded. Same

That is very transactional PoV. Almost like manager being seen as a middle person and a translator. Lack of coaching, culture building, career planning are something that would also lead to failures.

Think about it this way.. - "Every startup" does not mean big number. Startup are handful if compared against all kind of business that exist (from car dealers to big retailers to IT behemoths...) - In typical tech company only ha

This rings so true.. ..even with Adobe keeping Figma as independent as it can be, it will develop and grow at a much slower pace since there will be no venture capital funds pouring in, and Adobe’s resources drained to pay off the acquisit

The author's main point is he worked at Greylock before Adobe - factually accurate. Also accurate - conflict of interest if he in anyway was part of acquisition efforts.

Hence Apple narrative is around Steve Jobs - great product manager, great marketing person, decisive; company elevating ordinary ('oldish' tech) to extraordinary using power of design,... etc. Apple is not about inventing new tech
