      And then don’t ever, ever go public. Once you go public all the greedy people will insist that you install more greedy people.

        I think this is a big reason Valve did not go public

      with every tech company

      Clearly the problem here is unbridled capitalism, so why are you crying about tech companies specifically?? Nothing you highlighted has anything to do with tech but instead company culture in general

      Yep. With respect to network effects, culture bifurcates and can do so quickly. Good eggs bring in good eggs, bad (and dangerously, mediocre) bring in bad.
