@ernie unsure. the SPAC basically handed him billions of dollars in prospective value via stock. he can lose nearly all of that in stock price terms and still personally cash out positive. meanwhile the company itself may run at a loss but it now has a massive cash reservoir so brace for a few more years of "truth"

I might be wrong due to unfamiliarity with SPACs and lots of unclear reporting on amounts and ownership and details, but that's my read

It's weird to me why companies like Uber or Airbnb or Spotify are considered "tech companies".

What tech do they develop? Their own app & website? By that logic any modern business is a tech company.

Hell, even schools or libraries have websites and apps. Are they tech companies? Of course not. It just makes no sense.

Uber does taxis. Airbnb does amateur hotels. Spotify does music. The fact they use tech to make that happen doesn't matter, literally everyone does that in the 21st century.

@Tijn tbh it's probably just how the companies operate. they incorporate as app builders and take a lot of vc cash and make no profits for years like pre 2010 tech companies did

    Today I bought my first since decades and it shall be one of my daily drivers from now on.

    It's a stainless steel fine.

    However, due to my advanced processes, I rarely write things down on .

    I'd love to do so much more if there would be a great solution for offline . That would be a great investment by the industry! 🤔

    It still offers better solutions compared to my tablet.

    My Faber Castell pencil, my Fisher space pen and the Lilliput by Kaweco. The latter two are for being available through my trousers pockets while being away from my computer. I use the pencil for short term notes captured on paper.
