Valve boss Gabe Newell reveals daily routine in bizarre new interview: "I get up, I work, I go scuba-diving, then work some more"
-
Valve was making bank before lootcrates, and lootcrates have been available to kids since trading card games.
-
The thing isn't that they have constant work to do, but that they *must* be available for work at any time, for any reason.
-
Greedily taking up an obscene excess of resources and producing crazy amount of emissions and pollution makes the planet less livable for the rest of us. Yachts do those things.
-
Gabe Newell is not a usual CEO though.
-
This isn’t a job interview I’m not obliged to give you my CV. I’m stating an opinion that valve and steam are not the friendly aw shucks corporation they’ve been whitewashed into.
-
You started your opinion as a fact, and qualified it by saying your a game dev. Back up that claim. Shouldn't be hard to do.

It's a Steam Deck, he has big hands.
-
Ironic because Gabe appreciation is still kind of cult like.I'm sure that's *why* he doesn't seek attention, he already has too much.
-
Yup, if I was worth an obscene amount, I'd still work, but the nature of my work would change. It sounds like he found something he enjoys that happens to make a ton of money.
-
Nothing bizarre about that. Scuba diving is nice for some people who are shall we say neuro spicy. Nothing I enjoy more than going to the bottom and just chilling in water.
-
Hey if Gabe wants to make Linux phones something to be taken seriously I’m all for that. Until then, Gemini creeps me the fuck out so no android. I can tolerate Siri being fucking dumb.

Gabe Newell is better than many others, but this is true, the best man on Earth will become an absolute pissbag given power for continuous enough period of time to realize that. And the best man on Earth is probably some volunteer medic in some African warzone, not a computer programmer and a tech businessman.
