- Snippet: We're building an open-source LMS and we're currently working on protecting paid course videos from being downloaded and redistributed.

- Snippet: Kane & Lynch 2 was the Serbian Film of gaming, and for all its faults, it managed to make me actually disturbed in the way most other “shock games” in the AAA space didn’t. However, I never played the first game. All I knew about it was that it was one of the biggest industry plants of its time and the Gamespot review scandal. Like, they were so sure it would be the biggest hit in the year that they announced the mov…

- Snippet: Revenue came in at $96 billion, up 106% yoy and ahead of the LSEG consensus of roughly $92.17 billion. Non GAAP EPS was $2.22 against a $2.10 estimate. Those beats are impressive but the number that should matter more for anyone modelling this stock is the forward guide. Management pointed to approximately 70% revenue growth for FY28, against a Street estimate closer to 44%, and specifically framed it as a supply con…

Not reckless, but ideas where the founder is genuinely trying to change how an industry works instead of building another slightly different version of something that already exists.
