      He’s filthy rich and makes some of his money with gambling addiction. But his company invests million into Linux and I really enjoy Valve’s products. There are thousands of worse CEOs and companies.

        He’s also the original ceo of valve. Didn’t sell it out and have corporate ceos just casually going in and out.

          And by all accounts, runs a great company to work for. Tons of freedom to experiment. Small staff. Great pay and benefits.

            Yup. I’m an electrician in Seattle. We’ve built his offices and got to interact with his staff. I remember him mentioning to our GC the idea of having his offices open 24/7 to his staff with amenities was because the guy who came up with the idea is steam liked to work at night.

            It has to be one of the most profitable companies on the planet. So much revenue with so little staff
