Сегодня состоится IPO Palantir. Для мня это самая уникальная компания, причём не из-за сложившихся вокруг неё мифов, а из-за её «бизнес стратегии». Процитирую одно близкое мне мнение:

«Palantir has one business strategy — platform lock-in. There’s no data migration path out of Palantir. You can’t leave without significant data loss. This (and being well known general assholes in the government IT world) has put a big damper on their growth. They know it, but they can’t stop being assholes, it’s in the DNA. I used to be the CTO of their biggest competition, back when they were small. They ate us for lunch in 2 years because they had Peter Thiel and we didn’t — but our old customers kept begging to go back and they couldn’t».
