> The fact they cannot deliver a GPU, which is just ..

“Just”?! This is an incredibly dumb take.

Are you by chance comparing a brand new hardware product launch with a software product launch? Launching a hw product that does well takes YEARS. Any other company will not be able to pull this off, or they would have done it already. Intel has done quite well coming up with a decent gpu from scratch. There are like two other companies in this world that know how to do that, and they took a long, long time to get there.

thunkshift1··on Silicon Valley's best kept secret: Founder liquidity
Also bake in the fact in your calculations that 9/10 startups will not see the kind of success you are talking about. And the authors point still stands.. the founder made some money at liquidity event at round A vs … making even more money later if he doesnt sell?
