  @Futurenvesting Well, you can be sure that any company they buy is struggling for cash or can't grow, so they buy them and having a big layoff. Some AI info Financial Impact of the Strategy Skyrocketing Revenue: Consolidated revenue surged from $387 million in 2023 to $1.31 billion in 2025, and hit $704 million for Q2 2026 alone. High Operating Margins: Their operating and adjusted profitability have expanded rapidly, with adjusted operating margins reaching 54% and operating profits more than doubling to $278 million in 2025. The Debt Trade-off: While the individual apps become profitable, the parent company funds its aggressive shopping spree (acquiring giants like Vimeo, AOL, Eventbrite, and Airtable) through heavy borrowing. This leaves them carrying billions in debt, meaning a significant chunk of their operating income goes toward servicing interest payments. The stock went public on July 1, 2026, pricing its initial public offering at $29.00 per share. It surged 40% on its first day and currently trades around $39.31. The Good: Revenue skyrocketed 126% year-over-year to $704.2 million, and adjusted earnings per share hit $0.46 (beating the $0.27 consensus). The Bad: The company’s full-year 2026 revenue guidance came in at $2.78 billion to $2.82 billion, missing Wall Street’s $2.90 billion projection. The Growth Reality: While headline growth looks massive, organic revenue growth was just 3%. Almost all of the revenue expansion is coming from bought growth—specifically the rapid fire-sale absorptions of companies like AOL, Eventbrite, and Vimeo.

  @krassenstein You manipulated this article from AOL and left the part about being afraid to be discharged dishonestly. They don’t lack a damn thing. The issue is being away from their families, they knew it going in and two latino guys were broken up ‘cause they have been away a long time.

  @JoshDenny @Undeception been on the internet since AOL, never heard of you which means you are nobody of consequence.

  My playful analogy is we are in the AOL era of AI. Early stage of a revolutionary technology, but the delivery mechanism is still clunky, requiring really dumb concepts like prompt engineering. In 1996, you couldn't even imagine business models like Uber, Netflix, the iPhone, YouTube or Tesla FSD, because the technology wasn't even close to capable or cost effective enough. From 1996-2006 global data volume grew by a factor of 10,000,000x (per Gemini), but that growth was hugely deflationary (wholesale IP transit cost down 99%), i.e. good for the application layer and selectively bad for the pipe owners (telecom). Overall, the mix of massive volume growth offset against gnarly price deflation has been a, net/net, positive thing for telecom investing. Does that hold for the frontier labs? "Intelligence pipe" feels like it can be a pretty damn awesome business, but, like telecoms, the evolution of "intelligence pipe as a business" will be extremely path dependent and will require real business models with attractive unit economics to fund. Obviously most of the 90's era telecoms went bust and the assets were only financially productive for the 2nd or 3rd owners, mostly due to balance sheet issues & the subsequent closing of the capital markets window. Though capital markets have evolved materially since the early 2000's telecom bust with a regulatory environment more supportive of monopolies/oligopolies and private capital markets more supportive of funding massive cash burn (to wit, I think it's a really bad idea for Anthropic to IPO in '26, but what do I know?). So imagine that prior but like 10-100x the size of the internet. Maybe more? As in 1996 when you couldn't even envision Netflix/Uber, the iPhone or Tesla FSD, we have zero idea what 2056 looks like, but the exponential will certainly drive even more upside uncertainty in technology. idk, hard to be structurally bearish on the "intelligence pipe" and subsequently, infrastructure that feeds the pipe (though it feels certain there will be super gnarly potholes, messy shakeouts, and bankruptcies along the way, as we saw in telecom evolution), and ultimately what matters is free cash flow production, which feeds from the intersection of exponential volumes against unit level deflation. What's exciting to me with the improvement in the models, both frontier like Fable/Sol and open source like Kimi/GLM/Deep-Seek, is you are getting *closer* to seeing a real application layer possible in a very intellectually difficult sandbox like public market investing. Nearly four years from GPT 3.5 demo, we still aren't there. We are still in the "AOL era" - too slow, not competent enough, too expensive. But we are getting closer. So are we exiting the AOL era? It feels to me like we might be. If I had to guess, my guess is the frontier labs continue to be good businesses (and extremely volatile public stocks), mostly due to the reflexive nature of capital markets & talent acquisition. But what seems really obvious, to me, is that 2026-2036 is going to be the era of the application layer, where the Travis Kalanick-style entrepreneur takes this "intelligence pipe" and envisions new & groundbreaking businesses that change the world. That entrepreneurial accelerate will drive durable and accelerating demand for the intelligence pipe, it seems. It's a really exciting time to be alive.

  Bending Spoons ($BSP) is best understood as a software holding company built around recurring cash flow. Its playbook is direct: buy a digital business with proven demand, rebuild the product and cost base, improve pricing and conversion, then reinvest the cash into another acquisition. Evernote, Vimeo, WeTransfer, Remini and AOL are assets inside that operating system. The numbers make the model clear. In Q1 2026, subscriptions produced 84% of revenue, advertising 12%, and other sources 4%. Revenue grew from $387 million in 2023 to $1.31 billion in 2025, with acquisitions driving much of the increase. The figure I keep coming back to is customer tenure. In Q1 2026, 48% of subscription revenue came from customers with at least five years of tenure, including 28% from customers with at least ten. That gives Bending Spoons time to make deep changes to products it plans to own for the long run. The investment case comes down to execution: buy well, improve the asset, and compound the cash. The risk follows the same logic. Acquisition-led growth only compounds if management keeps choosing the right targets and improves them without weakening products that users already depend on.

  @BaileyRoseBoyle @AshleyInMKE That makes sense, and I'd imagine you're not alone in the experience of knowing what some things are despite never having actually used/ done them, like an AOL account.

  @AshleyInMKE I was born in the 70s and never had an AOL account because my first email was from my college and when I got out Hotmail and Yahoo were the bigger players. And while I've slept in waterbeds a few times, I always hated them and got terrible sleep.
