Comment Re:I was always amazed... (Score 1) 51

Oh it's worse than you think. I had the mis(fortune) to talk to META VR and AR engineers at one point. I was stunned, as they are asking semi-technical questions, to learn they had little to no experience with VR or AR itself. They didn't even use or care about their own products! Further, they had this aura of "I'm too superior ro use VR and AR that's for nerds". It blew me away. The entire group was run by marketing/politics masquerading as basic engineering. Mark was too nice to them, and let them take him for a ride.

Comment equityzen, startengine - the worst investments (Score 1) 39

At one point I thought I'd expand into some early PE investments. My worst investments - in any category - have been equityzen, startengine and these other firms. your investments are highlly illiquid - they plummet in value for no reason, and good luck getting any additional info. It's been a disaster. Unless the company goes public - that 1 in a 100 chance you end up being screwed.

Gee I wonder what would fix that. Well one is mandating no abortions... but let me think. There's something else - immigrant something, oh yes if we have immigrants then they can help increase our population. They have lots of kids, gee that might help. Oh wait - that won't work because of what's happening in the govt. Yah things are going to be just peachy in 20 yars.

The “Somali daycare” thing was a federal COVID food-aid scam (Feeding Our Future), not Democrats handing money to immigrants. It was uncovered by auditors and prosecuted by feds. Every state had massive fraud — Mississippi lost $77M to Favre’s circle and nobody calls that “GOP corruption culture.” Walz ran a boring, solvent state, and the Kamala rumors are internet smear fiction. Now amongst many issues we have the gestapo running loose in the USA shooting citizens (this comes from Joe Rogan - today btw). I was republican leaning but omg I'm getting so sick of misinformation from people like you and the damage it's doing to this country.

Comment probably overdue - META VR/AR are a mess (Score 1) 29

To be honest, these groups have some of the laziest SW developers in the industry. They lack innovation. Don't even use their own SW (dogfood it), and have no idea what users actually want. When someone comes in with real feedback they brush it aside and completely avoid making any changes. This is what happens when someone spends billions and has poor leadership in their group.
