When I remark that President Obama had eight years without any ethical shadiness, Mr. Thiel flips it, noting: “But there’s a point where no corruption can be a bad thing. It can mean that things are too boring.”

Treat this as an ad hominem if you want, but anyone who espouses this view is not someone whose opinions will ever matter to me.

QNX is seen as a stable, RTOS microkernel for a variety of embedded applications.

QNX somehow never makes it big in the phone market.

iOS, Android, Blackberry, PalmOS, and Symbian start duking it out.

Blackberry starts using QNX and finally states it is going in the direction QNX should have gone 15 years ago instead of the iOpener and its "pizza button."

I am not surprised this has finally happened, but I am also not holding my breath it will succeed.

Life finds a way to resolve its own problems.
