Kids and adults pay a price for too much tech, and it's not wholesale.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
But in terms of the code by which we go to market - it's not telling kids to supersize, we're not selling them, generally, products, in the advertising we do to them.
I don't think people buy technology products because of the personalities of the people behind them.
On the Internet, it is assumed people are in business to sell out, not to build something they can pass along to their grandkids.
A lot of the Warp stuff has infected people's minds 'cause they're at the point where they can put tracks out, 'cause electronics are cheaper in America and kids are richer generally.
So many times, these kids know more about the technology than their parents. And so many times, we're putting kids in very adult situations and expecting them to behave like they're 40 years old. Well, that's just not going to happen.
Big companies such as Google and Facebook buy startups at ridiculously high prices - not for their products, but for their people.
I would never want any of my kids to go into this industry; not until they are old enough to understand and if this is something that they really want to do.
New ideas in technology are literally a dime-a-dozen, or cheaper than that.
If you're not worried that you're pricing it too cheap, you're not pricing it cheap enough.
Hardware ultimately is a scale game, and it's a differentiation game. If you are literally selling products that are completely undifferentiated, like x86 servers, why would anybody pay you for that?
