3. I talked with a bunch of devs, and also a few non-dev folks on teams.

Everyone I met felt like a mix of positive, focused, confident and chill. "Boomeranging" to NVIDIA seems common (met a dev who did 1 year at NVIDIA, left to start a startup, then came back 6 years ago).

Average tenure seems high. Switching teams easy, and the manager I talked with is someone who invests in people (as in taking on ppl on the team without in-depth expertise in what they do [build AI agents] knowing folks learn quickly.)

2. Inside HQ, Codex and other AI startups have dedicated offices where they hold office hours for NVIDIA employees. Never seen anything like this!

I assume because no other large tech company is the kind of "platform" for so much of the tech industry like NVIDIA. The Codex team is v popular here btw as I heard!

Everything about NVIDIA feels different to most of Big Tech I know, in the tactical stuff they seem to do.

But then the team I met operates more nimble and faster than most startups would do. I'm just not used to seeing this inside a public company. Ofc this was just one team.

Oh, and "Jensen" comes up every few minutes. He seems to be such a big driving force behind a lot of things there.

I will probably get more details and do a more in-depth writeup on NVIDIA. It's overdue anyway!

@GergelyOrosz NVIDIA’s edge is that the feedback loop is unusually short for a company this size.

Customer demand, CUDA ecosystem, chip roadmap, and datacenter constraints all hit the same operating cadence. That makes “startup speed” less cultural and more structural.
