You don’t think cheating is excusable?
In France, this would be a Monday.
Are you American?
This isn’t our business.

Funnily, the economic and political situation in the US has a far larger impact on my day-to-day economics in Denmark than almost anything my own country does. Mortgage and groceries are inextricably linked to turmoil caused by the US and their markets.
I think you can have both of these opinions at the same time:
- I don't think cheating is excusable (especially when it's repeated).
- I don't think Nvidia should fire him. He is Nvidia. I don't think it's responsible to shareholders or anyone with a stake in the company to drop Jensen.
Plenty of CEOs have done much worse and stayed. I don't think this should excuse people in leadership. But I do think there's a calculation of damage to the company in various scenarios, and I think the damage is orders of magnitude s higher with Jensen leaving than with him not.
Apple managed to survive this because they had a very clear timeline and a gradual succession for takeover. Cook did great, despite what some people say.
Nvidia is not in the same position as Apple was.
