How to succeed in business without really trying

I used to do some work for venture capital companies, albeit in a small way, many year ago. Mainly by way of assessing for them the technical viability of promising Irish IT companies. It was this experience that left me with an abiding hatred of Microsoft. Horrible predatory crooks who'd stitch up a small local innovator for the equivalent of five minute's Microsoft profits. I wish Gates, Ballmer and the rest of the vile reptilians the worst that fate can bring them in terms of health, wealth and happiness.

On this point I met a guy I knew during this time who focused solely on the VC scene and subsequently went to Silicon Valley, where he's done extremely well.  Given my fascination with Jewish control of just about everything, whetted by GTRman's jaw-dropping revelations, I asked him the score.

First, and I'm not being melodramatic here, he was clearly nervous.  He spoke only on the condition that I would reveal nothing at all that might reveal his identity.  That in itself spoke volumes for me. He told me, and this was no surprise, that Jews control the money. But it went much further than that. Take the case of a start-up with some brilliant new technology. They want to take it to the market but need big investor cash. They find that the first VC they go to offers support, but on condition that you take X and Y on to your board and provide them with a substantial shareholding.  X and Y, as you can guess, will be Jewish.

Not liking this they go to another VC but are made a similar offer. And on it goes. And they get the eerie feeling that their supposedly private negotiations are in fact being fed to other potential investors in advance.  They realise very rapidly that they're trapped and most at this stage cave in.  There are more stubborn innovators who'll fight this racket, and they might get lucky with, for example, some Asian investor.  But then stories begin emerging in the technical press. 'Industry sources' tell us that Company X's product has hit serious technical problems. This is then picked up by the financial press and the independent IT king-makers like Gartner and Forrester (both heavily Jewish owned and run, by the way).  Such treatment brings even the toughest to their knees.

But it gets even better. Let's take a Facebook-like situation, whereby the ownership and origins of the intellectual capital come into dispute.  There are lots of Larry Summers' around who will use their positions to find in favour of the Jewish protagonist, as Summers did at Harvard. And in the unlikely event that you're still standing after all of this you'll find the courts will be organised against you.  The case and/or the appeal will - inevitably - be heard by a Federal Judge with a name like Ruth Silverstein who will - equally inevitably - find in your adversaries' favour.

So that goes a long way towards explaining the incredibly high Jewish involvement at the top levels of tech companies. It seems that once you control the sources of funding and the arbitration process you control the whole game.  I believe it's commonly known as the Farnsworth Syndrome. This stems from the fact that television was invented by a farm boy from Idaho named Farnsworth, but he ended up with nothing once the Jewish Mafia at RCA had finished with him.

That's not to say goyim can't survive. But to do so they must recognise that this ecosystem is  a Jewish one, and you play by their rules. If you do that you'll be allowed some of the pie. At the cost of your integrity, if nothing else.

My take on all of this?  Well, they're ruling by fear and coercion at present.  Will it last? Maybe. Because Whites are totally atomised, no solidarity whatsoever. (In fact my friend told me that any suggestion of contributing to a White or traditional cause would instantly result in the Mel Gibson treatment). And the problem is exacerbated by the fact that Chinese and Indians now have their own ethnic Mafias as well, Mafias which, by the way, don't have the slightest hesitation in stealing IP and rebranding it for themselves.

In such an environment it's hard to be optimistic, is it not?

Ireland's saviour - technology entrepreneurship

Ireland’s economy is going to hell in a handcart as you all know. Our one chance is to rekindle the spirit of the nineties and become an innovative, entrepreneurial, technology-driven powerhouse. We really were all of those things. Seems so long ago.

It’s with great joy therefore that I learned of the following initiative. As a former technology entrepreneur and mentor to a range of technology companies, I can tell a winner when I see one.
The ingenious scheme from Bock the Robber is to… well, I’ll hand you over to the innovator himself.

"Pray Per Click.


The concept is very simple. I’ve set up twin Pray supercomputers in Antarctica, each having three christabytes of main memory and quadruple 98-halohertz praycessors.

For a small donation (let’s say 50 cents), using PrayPal, you can generate a random prayer and have it emailed to an unlimited number of devotional web-grottoes, which I will also set up. You can send it to virtual Lourdes, Medugorje on line, cyber-Fatima or any Knock of your choice
.
So how will all this work?
.
Very simple. I’ll be putting a button on the front page that you can click, and using your PrayPal account you can donate 50 cents or a euro. Or a dollar. Or a dinar. Or an e-shekel. I don’t mind.

.
Then you select a prayer-theme from a simple pop-up menu.
.
Once you’ve donated to our church-building fund and selected the theme, our two Pray supercooled supercomputers will generate a random and unique prayer which will be broadcast to space in all known languages as well as Java and Cobol, and emailed to the recipient of your choice.
.
What could be simpler?
Here’s my advice to you. Pray early, pray often "

.
More comprehensive details of the project can be acquired here.

Now of course, as with all technological breakthroughs, some traditional trades will suffer. Obviously the humble Mass Card, a great little earner for centuries, will be severely impacted. As will the coffers of the not-so-humble Church. But that’s progress guys – don't be Luddites now!

Poetic justice


Wouldn't it be lovely to see the the Microsoft barracuda devoured by the Google whale? OK, I know whales don't do that kind of thing, but whales are kind of the good guys as well.

Jobs carnage: Coming along nicely




Mass redundancies at Waterford Crystal and Abbott Healthcare are just a tantalizing glimpse of what’s to come. The waste of the boom years, overseen by an incompetent government will become increasingly vivid as time goes on. But don’t worry if you’re in the public sector or in one of the competition-free ‘professions’. You can sit back and watch the disaster unfold.

And there’s no quick fix. Our international competitiveness, on which most of our wealth is based, has plummeted, and will continue to head south. To reverse the situation the country desperately needs huge numbers of brilliant graduates in science, technology and engineering, and entrepreneurs who can conceive and deliver the business . But our best and brightest, on whom we depend on for this will be otherwise engaged. Doing what?

Well, following the money, that's what. If you’re top of the class, full of drive and energy, what will you choose? A ‘respected’ occupation that pays €300k to €500k. by the time you’re in your mid-thirties, or throw yourself on the tender mercies of the competitive marketplace for an insecure job that may pay you only a tenth of that?

So the cleverest ones, unless they’re dedicated to a particular discipline, will choose medicine, law, dentistry, pharmacy or veterinary. Can't blame them, but it’s a disaster for the country. You don’t need the best and brightest in those jobs. It doesn’t take a genius to extract a tooth, plead ‘the defendant had drink taken, Your Honour’ or write ‘take as directed by your doctor’ on a packet of pills. For these jobs good enough is, well, good enough.

My friends in academia tell me that some computing and engineering courses are down to 20% of what they were five years ago. This in turn reduces the points requirements, which means a lower caliber of student, which means higher drop-out rates. A classical viscous circle. The employment boom of the last 5 to10 years has been in construction (now falling like flies), public sector, services such as manicuring and garden maintenance, and in part-time work. Virtually no growth in internationally-traded goods and services, on which our wealth depends.

Ireland is now a very expensive place from which to compete internationally. Whereas the government exhorts the rest of us to moderate costs, the high inflation that’s sending us plummeting down the international competitiveness league is almost all public sector driven. Public sector pay, electricity, public transport, local government services such as garbage collection have been the main drivers. With the collapsing dollar, we could be facing a perfect storm.

If and when this happens, the shakeout will be interesting. Regarding the ‘New Irish’ the industrious ones, mainly East Europeans, will leave. But the rest of the free loaders will remain with us, breeding prolifically, and with the hand out.

The best and the brightest

Check this post from Steve Sailer. As Steve says, these people in the picture are the best and the brightest, with no employers as such. Hence no need to 'celebrate diversity' and adhere to rigid ethnic and gender quotas. Hence the unparalled brilliance of their achievement.

Having said that, I'd hate to wake up beside Suparna (3rd from left, middle row) after a night on the beer.

If Microsoft told the truth....

Check this link (Vista Sucks) http://www.brightcove.tv/channel.jsp?channel=428902725&lineup=1138039202&firstVideo=0

This is brilliant. Shows what an ad for the latest piece of Microsoft junk would look like if they told the truth.

Bill Gates' revenge

Microsoft Presidente Bill Gates took grave offence at my recent article. However, rather than attempt to refute the evidence (an impossibility, admittedly) he instead has made the rude gesture seen in the image below. Isn't he very immature?

Microsoft - necks like a jockey's bollocks

So Microsoft accuses Google of plagiarism. Ballmer and Gates have necks like the proverbial jockey’s bollocks. Microsoft have built their whole evil empire on ripping off others’ products and ideas. From the very original DOS operating system which Gates was supposed to have designed (he didn’t – he bought it and added a few tweaks), through to Windows, ripped off from Xerox, Apple and IBM, the evil ones have robbed and pillaged their way to success. Never an original idea, they foisted lousy, unstable, insecure, bug-ridden software onto their trapped customers who had to act as unpaid testers.

Even now Google have better search, Firefox a better browser, Adobe a better development environment, Amazon better application hosting, I could go on. Why are their products so bad? Well trying to consolidate a load of code developed by others is never easy, and that’s why each version of Windows gets more unwieldy. Consider that it takes a 3GHz PC 15,000,000,000 – that’s right, 15 billion - clock cycles to open a 1kb text file. If Microsoft designed airplanes they’d all be in jail by now - what a lovely thought. And don’t forget that the ‘genius’ Gates totally misread the internet’s impact.

If they’re that bad, how come they’ve been so successful? A fair question. Well, first they got lucky by being selected by IBM to ‘develop’ DOS, the operating system (OS) for the first PCs. As your Savant has shown above, they did not of course design DOS, but bought it for a nominal figure. Then, to compound their original error, IBM commissioned the brigands to develop the follow-up operating system OS2. Microsoft then ripped off OS2 and renamed it Windows. Although a better OS (that's like saying someone is the tallest dwarf), OS2 failed largely because it needed powerful hardware to run – and hardware was very expensive then. Microsoft also profited from the decision of Apple to confine their vastly superior OS to their own hardware.

So the PC revolution took off with Microsoft riding the tiger. Over the years they bought, robbed or ripped off competitive software. The main device was to including it in Windows ‘free’, killing off the competition who had to charge for theirs. They also put in a variety of technical impediments to impede these products integrating with Windows. Thus countless competitors, most notably Netscape, were ground into oblivion, on the basis of control of the desktop interface, not product quality. Even today Vista - their latest 'innovation' - has ripped off many components of the Mac OS Tiger.

All this ripping off came at a price, and the company has been fined billions over the years for its predatory activities, although sadly, nobody has seen the inside of the slammer. Your Savant has no illusions regarding business practices in general (virtually every highly successful business has engaged in criminal activities along the way) but where Microsoft are beneath contempt is the way they ripped off small, vulnerable companies. One approach was to take an interest in some new technology, then appear to lose interest, only for the developers to see the concept appear in the next version of Windows. Another approach was to drag out negotiations with a small company, during which time the innovators were distracted, suffered a cash flow crisis, and were then picked off for pennies. The Evil Empire wouldn’t even have noticed it if they had paid a fair price, but it was, and is, such an ugly, predatory company that this was never on. And now Gates swans around the world playing the philanthropist. I suppose having to put up with Bono represents some form of cosmic justice. In closing, a special word of thanks to the Belgian gentleman who flattened a pie in Gates' face.
