  The top 10 companies that crashed in 2000: Cisco, Microsoft, Intel, Lucent, JDS Uniphase, WorldCom, AOL Time Warner. While the internet and computers did become really big, the market was wrong about every one of these companies except Microsoft, and there was plenty of opportunity to buy it after the crash at a much lower price. (Intel and Cisco are still around as major companies too, but they were extremely overpriced then compared to what they are worth now. Terrible investments even if you had a very long time horizon.) Amazon was considered a minor company (and it crashed big time), Apple was considered a minor has-been company (and it crashed big time), Google wasn't a public company yet, and Facebook didn't even exist. So the point of this is to not believe the market hype about which companies are going to benefit in the long run from AI.

  @thorMjolniro It turned out AOL never said that. MB checked it out. AND it turned out to be false. Because I do think she is stupid I believed it and did not check it with grok.

  But AOL knew a threat was approaching. Broadband internet was gaining momentum. The problem? AOL’s business model was built for the old internet. The slow, dial-up world. To compete with broadband, AOL thought it needed something it didn’t yet have: World-class content. A merger with Time Warner would give AOL access to some of the most valuable media properties in the world. Together, they believed they could dominate the future of the internet.

  @aburk203 @alphafox AOL chat boards, shared AIM, shared MSN Messenger too. Different times: Napster, Limewire, Proxys, Memes, NES, Surge Soda, Lucas Candy, Butterfinger BBs and Mr. T Cereal. Sound of Dial-up, and Saturday night cartoons. A bike outside because for some reason it was ok for a 10YO to leave the house and bike a mile to the the grocery store in a beat down neighborhood. Wow, took me back to a time I didn't have to worry about bills.

  There’s a white paper to be written on this. I was a beneficiary of IDA Ireland when I started at AOL in a portacabin with 20 people in Tallaght, before AOL became the second company after Oracle to open an office in East Point. So I’m thankful because it gave me a solid foundation for my career. Ireland’s reliance on US tech companies is now a massive problem. They now have significant leverage with government. AI data centres is probably their endgame.
