Gabe sounds like a nice guy. You never hear bad things about him like other CEOs.

Casual reminder that Gabe Newell owns 6 yachts worth an estimated US$1 billion and that he is not your friend.

Unfathomably based, let the man scuba dive in peace.

Man that has poured shitloads of money into turning linux into a more mainstream desktop platform is rich
Wow.
I don't take issue with rich people. Owning boats worth US$1 billion is past the point of rich.

Gabe Newell is better than many others, but this is true, the best man on Earth will become an absolute pissbag given power for continuous enough period of time to realize that.
And the best man on Earth is probably some volunteer medic in some African warzone, not a computer programmer and a tech businessman.
Jacinda Adern as New Zealand PM seemed to be sort of that type

I just dont understand miney obsessed people. Why the hell do you need multiple yachts? Why even work at this point when you could just .. not? You would still afford everything you ever want without ever checking your bank account. I just dont get it.
He probably enjoys working. Lots of people like to feel like they're making things happen

"Bizzare"? That's pretty much what I expected of Gabe. I don't imagine he has to work particularly hard. Most CEOs try to hide how much they don't do.

Gabe the Diver.
Clickbaity title. Daily routine stuff is kinda memeish thing to ask successful stuff, and he's trying to be honest about it. He gets to do the light touch management on a lot of fascinating stuff, so it's natural that he wants to do it daily, and he seems to be mixing it up with stuff he does for fun, so it seems like he does it throughout the week, and he seems to have a good attitude about it and looks at it realistically compared to regular work/"horrible job"s.
Note he doesn't specify times or meals; it's just a rough sketch.
so no different then normal people go to the gym on their lunch break. scuba is just a different kind of workout
