Slate Hires New CEO Peter Faricy. Ex-CEO Chris Barman appointed new role

With all the people associated from or coming from Amazon, I’m sure it’ll be the case of getting “amazonified”. I’m still interested in the Slate, but I’m sure Big Tech is looking at this closely and looking at other ways to monetize aside from accessories and parts for the Slate.

The "mid -twenties" price includes a contract to deliver packages a few hours a day.

Throw in free network charging and I’ll sign up for a few shifts.

But will the delivery fee be waived for Prime members?

This is a strategic move for Slate on many levels. I think Barman is better positioned setting up the production line, and Faricy can focus on the more pressing administrative issues. I think he will leverage his marketplace experience in attracting third party accessory makers into Slate’s arena.

With today’s announcement I now have more confidence in Slate’ management team.

This makes me nervous. Let the enshitification begin.

The en-Saturn-fication.

In all honesty I don't think it's a huge red flag. I've worked on bringing up a huge factory startup like that and upper management tends to move around as rolls fill out and more specialized areas start running. Saw it all the time.
