- aves 13y agoThat's a lot of egos in one place.
- losethos 13y agoThe FBI/CIA has one last chance. They can shout from the rooftops of the glory of God's temple as penance. Or they're fucked. God says...

It took 40 years for justice with Passover killing firstborn. FBI and Britain have waged wars against the church.

They were our own in every respect, and it was an expense laid out upon the improvement of our own property, and for the profitable employment of our own people. It is unnecessary, I apprehend, at present to say anything further, in order to expose the folly of a system which fatal experience has now sufficiently exposed.

- rserna 13y agoYou know, I worked there for a summer (I'm a college student) and after working at a couple other tech firms, I have to say it was an amazing environment and I really loved it. I'm not going to sit here and say they are perfect, but they're far from shitbags and there are many great people there.
- patmcguire 13y agoWhat does it actually mean for a company to attend an event like this? I.E if Adreesen Horowitz is attending, that could be anything from all the partners being present to one associate just checking things out.
- bryanchang 13y agoYour guess is as good as anyone else's, unless you or your friend is present at the event — large VCs / companies (a16z/FB) are less likely to send senior folks; on the other hand, smaller firms like Wanelo or Felicis Ventures could have founder / partner. One unique thing about investment banks' conferences is they preserve 1-on-1 meeting rooms to connect startup founders to corp dev or investors. Ultimate purpose from Goldman is to seek out the next big M&A / IPO deals and be at the forefront to lead them.
- hardwaresofton 13y agoThere's going to be a metric shit ton of money at that event, it would be impossible/incredibly foolish of any company attending an event like this to leave without bags of the stuff.
- zach 13y agoWow, what a list. So... if it's the "Private Internet Company Conference" what are companies like Facebook and eBay doing there?
- dmor 13y agoProbably looking for companies to buy.

- scott_meade 13y agoI'm at a loss of why associating ones company with Goldman Sachs is considered a good thing.
