08:44 IsambardPrince; schestowitz[TR2]: I've been reading about how the wealthy evade deposit insurance limits.

08:45 IsambardPrince; There's this company that works with banks so that when wealthy depositors go over the $250,000 FDIC insurance, it starts opening deposit accounts at other banks and then using the first bank as a "frontend" where they manage the money.

08:45 IsambardPrince; So if banks start failing, they have "many different accounts at various banks" even though that's not how they have to manage the setup.

08:46 IsambardPrince; It's structured so that it's legally up to 25 bank accounts each with a $250,000 insured deposit.

08:47 IsambardPrince; But it's designed to look to the customer like one account at one bank.

12:41 schestowitz[TR2]; IBM is now at the point where they have to rebuild what they once had. If IBM is to have any future as a technology company (as opposed to just being a glorified hedge fund), then they will need an R&D operation. This means both R (Research) and D (Development).

12:41 schestowitz[TR2]; This is obvious to any reasonable observer. Selling Research is not an option, nor is filling senior-level positions with inexperienced junior hires. What IS an option to IBM management is reducing scope...reducing the lines of business and the markets in which the company participates. They have been doing this for many years, but now you will see the process accelerate because IBM is out of cash.

12:41 schestowitz[TR2]; Look for all projects in Research to get cut EXCEPT Telum-related stuff that can be quickly monetized. Quantum computing research is a nice-to-have, but AI stuff and other addons for Telum will be considered "must do at any cost".

Quantum computing is just a research dream at this point, and IBM doesn't look like it will do much with AI outside of mainframe applications.

19:24 schestowitz[TR2]; I went through the transition to Gerstner and the disembodiment of the core values. IBM, in keeping with its core values, offered generous early retirement incentives in the mid'80s. Even then, signs were there that this program was insufficient.

19:24 schestowitz[TR2]; Full-employment continued, but the $B losses in the early '90s were too much. I was in management by this time. It was gut-wrenching to sit in a room and rank employees. A lot of anger and dismay over the task. Tears were shed. T.J.W. Jr stopped by and spoke to my new managers class. We were expected to embody the core values, now we were being asked to abandon them by and outsider.

19:24 schestowitz[TR2]; Subsequent layoffs and divestitures continued as LG and team transformed the company Hundreds of employees transferred as divisions were sold and services vended out.

19:24 schestowitz[TR2]; As the '90s ended, the sale of the division meant I too was no longer and IBMer. I am thankful I had the opportunity to experience the IBM of "old" when exe's cared.
