Something seems a little off lately with the sudden uptick in PR/guest interviewing/attention seeking behaviour as of late.
Steve Jobs, the example that always gets invoked here, was a horrible human being. Did that make him wrong? No, it didn't, it made him an asshole. And Chamath being an asshole doesn't make him wrong here either. Is Chamath Steve Jobs? No, but who cares. I found what he said interesting, and probably right in ways that make people uncomfortable.
Which probably explains why folks are bringing up his love life.
yep - people here wants those who are virtuous to be more successful than those who aren't. 'cept in real life, there's no correlation, and logically there wouldn't be. In fact, the more of an asshole you are, the more likely you'd be able to take advantage of people to succeed.

The comment "The guy is a stock promoter through and through" was an interesting accusation and on topic, but it's lost now.
