[1259.74 --> 1265.18] just couldn't buy the oled screens um because they couldn't meet the minimum order quantities |
[1265.18 --> 1269.18] they had to buy such a volume of them and they weren't making enough gbos to justify it |
[1269.98 --> 1274.62] well it's a good thing they didn't uh push for that that minimum order quantity because they would |
[1274.62 --> 1279.50] have had a lot more gbos that they wouldn't know what to do with at that point i uh |
[1279.50 --> 1285.34] i tell you man the amount of venture capital money that just gets thrown at stuff that |
[1285.34 --> 1291.98] obviously isn't going to work yeah is is just mind-blowing to me because that money |
[1292.62 --> 1300.46] is just gone it's just gone it's not just gone it is just no no no no no a lot of it a lot of it |
[1300.46 --> 1305.18] was paid to the employees okay they worked on it since 2012 yeah yeah those people put it back into the |
[1305.18 --> 1311.18] economy all right all right okay it's not gone but like if you wanted to just contribute to putting |
[1311.18 --> 1317.66] money back in the economy why don't you just like donate to a homeless shelter or two like obviously |
[1317.66 --> 1326.30] there are better ways to just put money back into the economy than creating a weird plastic ai |
[1326.94 --> 1334.62] like landfill filler like well that is sad that imagine just making a mass mass market market product |
[1334.62 --> 1339.42] and all the environmental damage part of that and then they're just in a heap like like getting |
[1339.42 --> 1345.90] liquidated nobody cares yeah that's et for atari or whatever just like literally bury them yeah that's |
[1345.90 --> 1351.02] brutal one thing that i feel really weird about with this one is that i've never before felt such a |
[1351.02 --> 1358.62] visceral connection to free market capitalism like this thing failed for lots of good reasons but in a way |
[1359.50 --> 1365.82] we we definitely played a role in it failing because well they made it they made it suck it arrived at |
[1365.82 --> 1370.14] our desk we told the whole world that it sucked we weren't the only ones who said it but we're a very |
[1370.14 --> 1375.98] visible channel and so in our own small way we contributed to these people not having jobs anymore |
[1375.98 --> 1381.90] and that's kind of crazy i feel like part of me feels bad but then i'm just like well i'm just like cog in |
[1381.90 --> 1387.90] the wheel of evolution and and free market capitalism sink or swim you guys should have done a better job |
[1387.90 --> 1394.22] and i wouldn't have had to do this to you that's an interesting uh that's an interesting take on it |
[1394.22 --> 1404.06] you know it's funny i don't normally think of myself as having a um this is weird like playing a role yeah as |
[1404.06 --> 1409.50] as sort of playing a role and people not having a job anymore but uh that is an interesting take on it i just |
[1409.50 --> 1416.46] i guess i maybe i should feel bad because i'm sure there were very smart people very intelligent |
[1416.46 --> 1424.30] people who worked at jibo no question no question but like i look at it and i go this was so obvious |
[1424.30 --> 1432.46] to me that this wasn't going anywhere um like why didn't you get out like i feel bad because yes i guess |
[1432.46 --> 1437.18] we contributed to the downfall though to be clear in this case i don't feel that bad because i don't |
[1437.18 --> 1444.38] think we played that large of a role but like couldn't you tell you know well i mean a lot for |
[1444.38 --> 1448.46] a lot of people it's just the job like they know it's not going to be an awesome product but they're |
[1448.46 --> 1454.94] getting they're fleshing out their resume right but here's the thing like i quit my job when it was |
[1454.94 --> 1462.14] clear to me that the direction of the the trajectory of the company was not competitive and |
[1462.14 --> 1469.90] the thing is is that it's easy a lot of the time people say well it's easy for you to say you know |
[1469.90 --> 1478.78] you had an opportunity to go and do something else and it's like right but if the trajectory is bad and |
[1478.78 --> 1487.74] the foundational aspects of the business are bad which it should have been obvious to anybody who |
[1487.74 --> 1495.34] worked there but this company was not profitable and not hitting key milestones so investor money was |
[1495.34 --> 1502.06] gonna run out what do you think is gonna happen so when you can see that the foundation is rotten |
[1502.78 --> 1511.34] and the trajectory is bad why not go now well maybe because rather than later when everyone all your |
[1511.34 --> 1515.26] other colleagues are trying to find work too well because the part that you're working on might be good |
[1515.26 --> 1520.86] like the person who did the animatronics his resume is his or her resume is still awesome at the end of |
[1520.86 --> 1525.02] it they'll probably find a job there's and there's lots of things like i made all the apis that connected |
[1525.02 --> 1530.14] to iheart radio or whatever like when you compartmentalize that they maybe still are proud of the work |
[1530.14 --> 1534.86] but here's the thing like you had a pretty long runway here you could kind of wrap up your current |
[1534.86 --> 1541.02] project get the resumes out there you know like well it's a startup so maybe they had vested chairs like |
[1541.02 --> 1544.70] a lot of their pay structure could have been staying there okay yeah that could be true |
[1545.98 --> 1550.54] say okay that's something i didn't really consider like when i think about employee retention you know |
[1550.54 --> 1557.10] i really think about making sure that i maintain and making sure that everybody who works here knows |
[1557.10 --> 1565.50] that we are maintaining very strong like foundational strength for the business like linus media group is |
[1565.50 --> 1572.78] built upon rock not upon wood that is eaten what kind of rock carpenter limestone tall and it it's |
[1572.78 --> 1578.06] talk it's granite that's number one on the most hardness scale hardness scale it's granite you know |
[1578.06 --> 1583.42] the hardness scale yes i know most scale of hardness what's 10 then i don't is it diamond yeah |
[1584.38 --> 1587.74] what what what's the only thing i can cut a diamond though more diamond yeah |
[1587.74 --> 1595.98] yeah ow headphone users yeah grade three facts i don't even think that's grade three facts it's |
[1595.98 --> 1599.58] more like grade nine facts most hardness scale is grade eight but like the whole like what can |
[1599.58 --> 1604.30] cut a diamond that's young that's kid stuff okay all right all right all right all right all right |
[1604.94 --> 1611.74] anyway i just i feel bad but i also feel bad in the same way that like i feel bad for some of my |
[1611.74 --> 1615.34] colleagues who were left over at ncix like i feel bad this sucks but like |
[1617.58 --> 1622.78] some of them and this is this is the funniest thing about it sort of some of them i had conversations |
[1622.78 --> 1632.86] with like hey it's been another year you're still there what gives i'm like yeah you know it's good for |
[1632.86 --> 1640.22] me i'm like right but like this clearly isn't sustainable why are you still there |
[1640.22 --> 1646.86] yeah you know like it's i'd rather i'd rather be the rat that abandoned the ship |
[1647.58 --> 1651.58] than like the one that goes down with it personally and i think it sounded more like |
[1651.58 --> 1654.94] you were the rat that was like i'm gonna get into this container and get shipped off of the |
[1654.94 --> 1659.26] ship before it hits an iceberg and then all the other people still work they're like the rats |
[1659.26 --> 1663.74] scurrying away from the water in titanic you know when they're trapped at the bottom and |
[1664.70 --> 1670.14] those cages the irish people i am proud to say i have not watched that movie since it's theatrical |
[1670.14 --> 1676.30] release i do not remember hmm and you would have been wait 11 years old yeah |
[1677.50 --> 1683.34] what 94 was it 94 no it's 96. i was in the third grade i believe |
[1685.18 --> 1692.78] this is this is an important like event in your life like you remember titanic 97. 97 okay i'm guessing |
[1692.78 --> 1698.86] yeah yeah so i would have been 11 in 97 yeah 1997 okay all right i'm pretty good at that it's one of my |
[1698.86 --> 1705.82] like pet superpowers okay guessing dates uh years that i've lived through of things you got a good one |
[1705.82 --> 1716.54] for me here um no it's just bad superpower it's rarely useful and even when it's useful all i get is |
[1716.54 --> 1722.38] little brownie points for myself date guessing man exactly he's no fun at parties |
[1725.26 --> 1733.34] what year was 9 11 2001 okay so that's easy i know because that was like wait i'm so stupid i tried |
[1733.34 --> 1737.42] that was supposed to be a joke where the answer was built into the question no but none of those two |
[1737.42 --> 1743.34] numbers even have to do with the year yeah no that was like that was one of the most surreal moments of |
[1743.34 --> 1751.98] my life so living on the west coast um like everything that went down was very much in |
[1751.98 --> 1759.18] progress um when my my radio alarm like when you woke up when so my alarm clock was tuned into news |
[1759.18 --> 1763.74] radio because i found that that woke me up better than music someone like talking at me and the way |
[1763.74 --> 1768.86] they were talking at me that morning i thought i was still dreaming i was sure i was still dreaming i was |
[1768.86 --> 1775.34] like this is the weirdest street and holy now you said a swear word i've never said a swear word in my |
[1775.34 --> 1783.58] life um look in the in the 2018 yeah so so the so the so it was like going off next to me and i was just |
[1783.58 --> 1789.50] like i just kind of lied in bed i was like is this real like |
[1791.74 --> 1797.90] yeah yeah i'm awake um and like school all school all that day so like i remember my grade nine science |
[1797.90 --> 1804.38] teacher was just he didn't really even say they wheel the tv into your classroom um yeah he he |
[1804.38 --> 1809.82] didn't because the science class always had their own tv right so he uh so he didn't really say we |
[1809.82 --> 1817.66] weren't going to do class that day but he had the tv on and loud so that like he could hear and |
[1819.02 --> 1824.70] like we didn't have class that day yeah yeah it was it was it was bizarre anyway um we could do we |
[1824.70 --> 1829.18] could do another there's no way to nicely uh say we're out of that so let's just do sponsors yeah |
[1829.18 --> 1839.58] let's do our sponsors so um the first one we've got is um oh wait what the heck uh sorry so you are |

[1854.70 --> 1863.34] moss grande 2018 updated version i like the black one so this pack is expandable up to 40 liters and |
[1863.34 --> 1869.50] i'm just going to try and find the expandable zipper i'm sure it works similarly to mine but i can't find |
[1869.50 --> 1877.02] it right now ah it's this one so you can wait yes it's this one so you can expand it like that personally |
[1877.02 --> 1881.74] i would just don't really use that feature but whatever it's up to you if it's up to 17 inch |
[1881.74 --> 1888.78] laptops it's a 40 ounce water bottle no you you're the type of dude that always has a full backpack |
