What is important about comma is the culture they seem to be building.

A no frills, technology-first company that is uninterested in speculating their value.

I would bet any day on a company that doesn’t thrive by shilling, with conviction to win and sheer skills turned up to 11.

That’s the kind of folks that push civilization forward

Reminds me of Carmack and Romero doing their thing with shareware games - true hackers, no fucks given, brilliant engineers, screw the corporate bullshit and get on with the business.

Highly recommend - Masters of Doom audiobook: https://www.amazon.com/Masters-of-Doom-David-Kushner-audiobo...

Speaking of sheer skills, take a look at geohotz twitch streams. Just the breadth of topics is fun to watch: making your own crypto, hacking the neural chip, low size encryption.
