Yes, as I recall, he sold Zachtronics to investors sometime after TIS-100 so that he could focus on making the games and have someone else worry about the business.
I wouldn't say that no one cares, but obviously many fewer people care when the cost of "recompiling" a model from its open source training pipeline is so high. Also, if you only have the weights, you can still use it to generate training data for a new model (i.e. distillation) so it's inherently less locked down then closed source binaries were.
If CPU launches are being delayed until next year due to high memory prices, I wish I shared the CPU manufacturers' optimism the memory prices will be lower next year.
This short story is set in the same universe as Tchaikovsky's excellent "Shroud" novel and in fact it's the same ship. I wonder where it sits in the chronology because I think the ending of Shroud surely permits an interesting sequel.
I worked for a company which adopted FogBugz. The multiplier it calculated to be applied to developer time estimates quickly diverge towards positive infinity. It's probably fair to share some of the blame for that between us and it. Nonetheless, we managed to hit our quarterly release deadline well in advance of the predicted five to six years :-P.
That system seems very convoluted to me. In the UK, only the seller pays a commission on the sale price (typically ~1.5%) and the seller's estate agent is responsible for showing buyers around the property. The buyer doesn't need their own estate agent unless they're also selling a previous property at the same time.
The one next to Bletchley Park is The National Museum of Computing. It's a really great place and, IMHO, much more interesting than Bletchley Park itself.
