This one has a highly link-baity title, and i clicked on with suspicion, since techcrunch.com does have a reputation of exaggeration, but data was interesting, the points/hypothesis he makes sound weak, but i am not surprised. it's probably impossible by the very nature of uncertainty involved in building a 1Bn company* to get any more rigourous hypothesis backed by data. -(excuse the antifragile bias, am currently reading the book) *-- just a personal opinion
