Great exposure for Rivian, but the article itself was a bit of a puff piece with a bunch of recycled content.

Mostly recycled, but nothing puffy in my mind (great pics though), pretty straightforward look at what he went through so far with Rivian.

Absolutely no question that Rivian has excellent management. They under promise and over deliver. Just brilliant, decent people leading innovative engineers and designers. Great brand builders. Business schools need to use Rivian as an example of how to build a great company. Drive well.

We are truly fortunate to have him as a CEO, he is the real deal. Just think about the other douche bag tech CEOs out there.

I wonder if the print edition has more details...

I won't be able to unsee Steve-O when I look at RJ now....thanks.

The very first thing I noticed about RJ was the uncanny resemblance he has to Steve-O

• Rivian hasn't turned a profit.
• Creating a company which is almost completely a Tesla clone isn't exactly disruption.
