If this is the end for Tim Cook, his run will go down in history. Over $700 million of market cap has been added on average every day since he took over as CEO in 2011. Chart by @mattcerminaro

1 hour 18 minutes. Flew by. Good showing by Ternus. Quick honest reaction is: better than Cook at these keynotes, but lacks the off-the-cuff nature and energy of Jobs. It's early. But also we NEED to go back to live. iPhone Duo demos would have been awesome live. #AppleEvent energy Related

AUTODESIGNING PPTX: While trying to understand the new @github HydraFusion Project https://t.co/B03qBEWQQK I made my seventh attempt at a bespoke, and on-brand, PPTX deck tool for my brother @mariorod1 to cook with as a custom GitHub Copilot Canvas. It's getting an awfully lot easier to work within Swiss typographic grids in "creative" ways that make the literal roll of the dice satisfyingly fast without making so many LLM calls. Next, I'm looking forward to adding all the interesting GEPA and GRPO stuff that will enable compounding learning capabilities. —JM --- Cozy AI Recipe: - I pointed G… youtu.be

Indian value investor who taught Behavioural Finance and Business Valuation as an adjunct professor at MDI Gurgaon. He writes the Fundoo Professor blog about investing, moats and mental models.
Apple's market cap was about $351–360 billion when Steve Jobs died. On September 1, 2026, Tim Cook's last day as CEO, it was $4.75 trillion. When Ballmer handed over to Satya Nadella in Feb 2014, Microsoft market cap was about $315B. It’s $3.7 trillion now. Similar outcome with Sam Walton and Wal-Mart. It went the other way with GE and Jack Welch. So, it cuts both ways, and I think the deciding factor is whether the underlying business quality, moat, and capital-allocation discipline survive the transition intact. Quoting @menakadoshi The events at HDFC Bank confirm two of my worst suspicions. One, celebrity founders and CEOs often leave behind a leadership vacuum. As the adage goes, nothing grows under a banyan tree. India is witnessing that more frequently as part of the great handover from post-liberalization leaders to the n… Related

. @yurimilner was that world class investor. After one meeting he said he wanted to invest and asked me for a valuation. I threw out a number 10 pct below what i figured our next round would be. He said he would wire the money next week. I think it was $150m. Never asked for board seat or any terms. He ttly got what the founder of a high growth company cared about. No meetings. No terms. Dont bother us. Let us cook! Quoting @kevinleeme Whenever other founders ask me who my best investors are and who I’d recommend they work with, I name the handful of VCs who rarely bother us and trust us to operate. It’s funny how simply doing nothing as an investor can put you in the top 1% of a founder’s book. Related

Tim Cook will be stepping down as CEO of Apple on Sept 1, 2026, after fifteen years atop the company. He has been critiqued for being too cautious, but I celebrate his restraint in my post on his tenure. bit.ly

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
