Lots of hype, for sure, but this criticism is too hard for what is still a still nascent frontier technology. The innovations you listed in "last century"- PC, internet, etc - both went through their fringe, hobbyists-and-nerds-on

There's a few comments here pointing out their rules for wiping company data from devices when traveling through customs. As a frequent international traveler, I feel naive here... can anyone point out any resources as to why this is b

This was fascinating Tim - big thanks for sharing. I imagine you know your way around Buffett's annual letters well. Any other favorite portions you might particularly recommend?

Sankyo - I'm sitting here almost at a loss for words. You've managed to articulate something deeply relevent in my life right now, in a way I just haven't quite able to put a finger on myself (having just moved back to the US

I agree with what you're saying. I'm not an expert - just learning more about this myself over the last few months, but it sounds to me like the investment style you're talking about exists inside the world of private equity.

Heh, I feel like this is a direct shot at 500: (Fairly so. They seem to offer a blurry line on what they consider "portfolio" sometimes, not going out of their way to differentiate accelerator vs later stage investments) >&gt

Great share! I noticed something funny about myself after reading Ayn Rand - I found her writing influenced my mindset and made me (personally - not casting this on all Rand fans) more isolationist, individualist, and just a little bit more

For the guardian article to not mention this, where the inspiration obviously came from, feels off.

>>The Wolf of Wall Street was a glorification of this type of behavior and a lot of people saw Jordan in that movie as a "Hero" Interesting analogy, and I'm glad you pointed this out. I was disgusted by Wolf of Wall Str

Exactly. Even to this day, depending on who I'm talking to, I say silly things in private - things that aren't representative of who I am or my intentions in the real world. It's not fair to look at someones private communica

Interesting new application of the phrase "deadhead trips" here... In the 1970's, that would have meant something else entirely :)

I don't feel it's irrelevant. Both anecdotes point to Tim being a progressive, unconventional CEO. I think it's great, and I didn't personally pick up on CNN trying to pull anything sleazy here.

Wow, I'd actually forgotten about that clawback, but damn, that was brutal. Agreed. From an admittedly outsider perspective, the leadership of Zynga just seems to have exhibited a darkness at every turn.
