It was a weird allegation when I paid the postage and got the MA from Oxford a couple of weeks later https://twitter.com/emostaque/status/1682091613278072832?s=4... Told them that and more https://emad.posthaven.com/on-setting-the-record-straight On the cofounder share sale thing it was the Ron Wayne effect with massive sour grapes and him straight up lying https://twitter.com/emostaque/status/1680774535342358528?s=…

HN discussionEmad's response here for balance: https://emad.posthaven.com/on-setting-the-record-straight Personally, most of the issues seem superficial compared to, for example, Elon's pathological lying.

HN discussionThat was an awful piece of journalism where they ignored multiple factual corrections after spending days with me. Even met the family and made fun of my work on my sons autism which shows what they are like. How many companies preseed get a 4,000 A100 cluster dedicated built from AWS etc? I wrote a reply anyway as this stuff makes me sad Happy to reply to any issues you may have here too https://emad.posthaven.com/…
