So far I have seen 1/ and 2/. Dank, RENT and others are 1/ no doubt. Neo and AM are 2/.

    mircea_popescu: [KS] the classification doesn't go like that. there's two distinct angles being confounded.
    
    mircea_popescu: from the investor pov, "it's a scam" to "it's a legit business" roughly maps their revenue. in this sense, a good corp in a bad market is a "scam".
    
    mircea_popescu: from the corp pov, "it's a scam" to "it's a legit business" roughly maps their honesty. in this sense, shit badly mismanaged by honest but clueless people is "not a scam"
    
    mircea_popescu: then the debate "it's a scam" vs "it's not a scam" can rage indefinitely, opposing some people arguing "this is so stupid it'll never see a return" with people arguing "these people are so honest and nice and trustworthy they don't even call women bitch ever!"

    mircea_popescu: and prefer to be my slaves instead.

    mircea_popescu: well they should definitely pick better.
    
    chetty: God I hate feminists
    
    mircea_popescu: this "ima get married cause everyone else is" nonsense obviously can't work any better than "i'ma '''invest''' cause the rest of reddit thinks so"
    
    locksmith: I'm thinking it's best to live with someone, and if you end up not liking each other just split up. what's the point of bringing the state into the whole ordeal
    
    mircea_popescu: don't they have common law marriage where you live ?
    
    locksmith: what's common law marriage
    
    mircea_popescu: in most of the us the state involves itself anyway, provided you spend more than a few years together. or have kids.
    
    mircea_popescu: it's a "married by default" thing.
    
    mircea_popescu: in some us states merely failing to correct the other one's public claim you were married is good enough.
    
    locksmith: oh yeah, this exists here, for couples with kids or people living together for more than 7 years
    
    locksmith: but I don't live in the states
    
    mircea_popescu: used to be 20 years about 20 years ago.

    Apocalyptic: I really liked the article

    jurov: not play toward their creative side
    
    jurov: only then they stay in my company
    
    jurov: But I don't want to surround me with people I secretly despise!
    
    Apocalyptic: I didn't see that in the piece
    
    jurov: it's closely related to the fungibility
    
    jurov: and quimby did not buy his animator espresso machine or bean bags
    
    Apocalyptic: the way you behave towards people is in no way related to their potential fungibility
    
    Apocalyptic: the way you consider them however is something else

    jurov: that can't be split from each other

    jurov: But that's beside the point. I saw the point "as do not treat anyone as exceptional"
    
    Shakespeare: a team does need a leader jurov, but a leader doesnt despise his men
    
    Shakespeare: he merely does not need to totally understand what they do
    
    Apocalyptic: jurov, I saw the point as a real life exemple of the value of management

    Apocalyptic: (re the salary argument, "does this guy really deserve to be paid xxxx ? he does nothing...")

    Apocalyptic: now that's beside the point, maybe they did, maybe they don't
    
    Apocalyptic: *didn't
    
    jurov: There just *had* to be some feeling of superiority in them to do what they did
    
    pankkake: re moz CEO: http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=5651
    
    Shakespeare: Jobs and the underlings he despised were probably several layers of mgmt removed
    
    Shakespeare: it's not thaty they felt superior, it;s that they ARE superior
    
    Shakespeare: so when inferior beings frustrate your plans how does that make you feel?
    
    Shakespeare: we're getting away from the spirit of the Quimby article i think though
    
    jurov: you're right, i'd be upset
    
    Shakespeare: it was mostly about running a tight ship, regardless of your experience performing the art
    
    Shakespeare: showing that mindset can be corrupted
    
    jurov: Dunno. If I want to have company and attract and keep talent, that's what i need to become
    
    Shakespeare: and leadership is a basic form
    
    jurov: That was what tfa was about.
    
    Shakespeare: maybe you are not a leader
    
    Shakespeare: you dont need to be
    
    Shakespeare: or, maybe your decision as a good boss, migth be to hire a better manager
    
    jurov: Well, I could barely stand being an employee since I remember.
    
    Shakespeare: someone "brought in" Quimby right?
    
    jurov: Yes,me.
    
    Shakespeare: he didnt build the thing without intigation
    
    Shakespeare: instigation
    
    jurov: And I can't do the travelling,freelancing and squatting nomad either, attractive it may be.
    
    jurov: So the only option left is to have own company.
    
    [KS]: mircea_popescu: I see your point, but it's an improper use of the word "scam". A scam is a fraud. A good corp in a bad market is just that. You made a bad investment and calling it a scam is just shifting the blame. Of course, don't try to explain them word things to "investors".
    
    Shakespeare: so have a compan jurov!
    
    Apocalyptic: he already has
    
    jurov: Yes. Just discussing some difficulties with leading people.
    
    jurov: *my
