[05:22] schestowitz[TR2] I went on: What IBM needs right now is a series of very tough-minded, market-driven, highly effective strategies for each of its businesses strategies that deliver performance in the marketplace and shareholder value. And thats what were working on. [05:22] schestowitz[TR2] Now, the number-one priority is to restore the company to profitability. I mean, if youre going to have a vision for a company, the first frame of that vision better be that youre making money and that the company has got its economics correct. [05:22] schestowitz[TR2] And so we are committed to make this company profitable, and thats what todays actions are about. [05:22] schestowitz[TR2] The second priority for the company, I said, is to win the battle in the customers premises. And were going to do a lot of things in that regard, and again, theyre not visions theyre people making things happen to serve customers. [05:22] schestowitz[TR2] I said we didnt need a vision right now because I had discovered in my first ninety days on the job that IBM had file drawers full of vision statements. We had never missed predicting correctly a major technological trend in the industry. In fact, we were still inventing most of the technology that created those changes. [05:22] schestowitz[TR2] However, what was also clear was that IBM was paralyzed, unable to act on any predictions, and there were no easy solutions to its problems. The IBM organization, so full of brilliant, insightful people, would have loved to receive a bold recipe for successthe more sophisticated, the more complicated the recipe, the better everyone would have liked it. [05:22] schestowitz[TR2] It wasnt going to work that way. The real issue was going out and making things happen every day in the marketplace. [05:22] schestowitz[TR2] [05:22] schestowitz[TR2] Fixing IBM was all about execution. We had to stop looking for people to blame, stop tweaking the internal structure and systems. I wanted no excuses. I wanted no long-term projects that people could wait for that would somehow produce a magic turnaround. I wanted IBM needed an enormous sense of urgency.

[07:17] IsambardPrince You go to a furniture store and some Indian dude sells you a couch made out of particleboard in Alabama that lasts until someone sits on it three times. [07:17] IsambardPrince You get it into your apartment where the Indian landlord won't fix the toilets until the city gets after him. [07:18] IsambardPrince Then it's a quick stop over to the battery store, with the Indian guy that messes up your car and makes your iPhone swell up like a balloon. [07:18] IsambardPrince Its last call was an Indian tech support scammer who also wanted you to know your car warranty is about to expire. [07:18] IsambardPrince Rosebud! [07:20] IsambardPrince On your way back over to the dealership to get your car fixed, you stop for gas. It's an Indian guy who owns the station. He sells kratom, delta-8, and gray market boner pills. [07:20] IsambardPrince The button for 87 octane is broken so you whack it with the gas pump handle. [07:21] IsambardPrince You later find out that the auto shutoff is broken too, when you get splashed with gasoline and need to go use the shower, which the Indian landlord cut off without warning. [07:21] IsambardPrince You have been eaten by a grue. [07:47] IsambardPrince schestowitz[TR2]: Seems Apple has a cobranded credit card with Goldman Sachs. [07:47] IsambardPrince "Apple-designed, laser-etched titanium card that is accepted all over the world with the Mastercard payment network." [07:48] IsambardPrince LOL [07:48] IsambardPrince And they're throwing them at everyone. [07:48] IsambardPrince It says my odds of approval are "outstanding" and "check to see if you will be approved with no impact to your credit". [07:48] IsambardPrince They really really want you to pay for things with your iPhone. [07:49] IsambardPrince Although it has a "laser-etched titanium card" you only get the 2% rewards rate if you use Apple Pay. [07:49] IsambardPrince I'm not really sure where they started throwing titanium cards at people with middling credit. [07:50] IsambardPrince It used to be a gimmick banks did if you had outstanding credit and they were trying to get you on the "elite" tier credit cards. [07:50] IsambardPrince I had a couple years ago. There's not much difference except it's a....really heavy credit card. [07:50] IsambardPrince It seems like there's a lot of people like Patrick Bateman out there. [07:51] IsambardPrince Remember the scene in American Psycho where they're all plonking down business cards to compare the paper, the fonts, the ink quality, embroidering.... [07:51] IsambardPrince Well, it ended up like that with credit cards too. People in a suit in a bar wanting to throw something down that goes "PLONK". [07:54] IsambardPrince Well well, you have been a naughty boy. [07:54] IsambardPrince No more plonk for you, mister. [07:55] IsambardPrince Now here's Apple giving losers a "plonk". Reminds me.... [07:56] IsambardPrince Of a casino. They make everyone feel special so they'll lose a lot of money. [07:56] IsambardPrince The plonk is no longer cool if any run down schmuck with an iPhone in this welfare office can have one. [07:57] IsambardPrince I remember applying for Medicaid. I felt shamed by even having to ask. [07:57] IsambardPrince Then I walked in and all of the people sitting there asking for Medicaid, TANF, WIC, SNAP, Section 8.... [07:57] IsambardPrince They all had fucking iPhones. And the latest ones. [07:58] IsambardPrince They're giving them food stamps. Then with the money they don't have to spend on food, they get an iPhone. And not just an SE, which might be forgivable in this day and age. [07:58] IsambardPrince No, no. The EXPENSIVE one. ● Jun 13 [08:00] IsambardPrince Anyway, when my number finally got called, I went back to talk to my caseworker. I asked why it was taking 8 months to decide on my Medicaid case. [08:00] IsambardPrince She told me I needed to vote for Democrats so there would be a budget. [08:00] IsambardPrince Meanwhile, the caseworkers were all wearing things like Naruto pajamas to work. [08:00] IsambardPrince The computers ran on Windows XP, in 2017. [08:01] IsambardPrince And the caseworkers were talking about going on strike. [08:02] IsambardPrince I talked to the city. They said as long as I don't ever let my bus pass expire, it'll always be free. [08:02] *wael__ has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [08:02] IsambardPrince But I don't ride the bus. Because it's not reliable enough. [08:03] IsambardPrince I mean I do sometimes if I have all day and it happens to be running. [08:03] IsambardPrince They asked me what they should do to get people to ride the bus. [08:04] IsambardPrince I said this. [08:04] IsambardPrince "It would have to start running around 3 AM, you'd need to double your Sunday routes." [08:04] IsambardPrince The city buses do run all night, the rest of them don't. [08:05] IsambardPrince But even then, it's too dangerous to get on a night bus.
