For all his faults, I do feel for Jensen. He built this thing from an absolute scratch. He had a lot of luck on the way, from crypto to CUDA. And who can forget his spat with Jobs all those years ago.

Why? He caused this. He chose to have affairs with a spy and a subordinate. Now he has to deal with the consequences.

Nvidia eventually had a spat with just about any corporation it has ever worked with. Their only partnership that stood the test of time is probably Nintendo.

He worked at Dennys in Portland for a while, so... He can always lean on that experience if needed.

He is hoarding dozens of billions of dollars. He does not need your feelings, he needs a wealth tax.

Pretty sure all those nVidia employees over the years had a bigger hand in building it.
