Very cool initiative! The more support that comes to recognizing the open source projects and research that go into so many useful tools -- the better.

Douglas Rushkoff wrote decently well about this topic -- his argument was that Twitter was a company that never should have gone public and which would have been much more interesting had it been more decentralized and privately controlled.

Critical reading. Startups are such different beasts depending on what stage they're in.

The really interesting thing that will come out of this, I think, is defining what are usually human-only attributes. The notion of ownership being anything less than associated with individual humans was displaced by the mythology of joint

Looks very good (especially the team behind it!), but I wonder if there's a discrete step down to where you make machine learning materials accessible to the general public beyond data visualizations and clear writing. This will certai

Thanks so much for highlighting this!

+1 to Python Machine Learning, I feel like some of artificial intelligence is understanding a lot of finer (but critical) mathematical nuances, but some of it is just getting your hands dirty, and the second is definitely more accessible fo

It still boggles me how liquid virtual assets are. My family had an old-school mentality and put up their assets in housing where they could. Unfortunately, that ties them to cities around the world, and incurs a penalty in terms of time an

As a long-term play, I think as much as people think about investing capital, they should think about investing their time the same way. You put some blocks of time into a particular project that scales well, and it'll eventually provi

I would argue that the very act of immigration means you're getting a higher-than-average selection of a country's population. Immigrants, after all, are a self-selecting group. People who are willing to upend everything in their

Very cool! I'll see if I can contribute in the future :)

The volatility of bitcoin to regulatory announcements is basically sky-high, and I imagine a money making opportunity. Checked Coinbase right about 30 minutes after it cratered down to 995. Text price alerts don't seem to be working :&

The United States is never going to decay to nothingness. However, whether or not it becomes the top place for technologists to congregate and build things will become an open question. That alone, while perhaps not dire to the nation as a

It's oddly ominous reading about America's rise on the back of textile patents taken from England and Europe, then poaching of German physics talent and scientific talent from across the world. Germany was, by far, the pre-eminent

I think having a dataset on who is really interested in machine learning and applying it in practice can only help Google. Plus, if they kind of lurk on the side, you don't get enough of the Google brand overwhelming Kaggle so that it

I applaud what seems like a coordinated attempt to outdo each other when it comes to extreme transparency. 1) Wikileaks revealing the CIA has undermined consumer goods with malware. (this looks like a bigger deal than the Snowden revelation

I've seen your posts on Spark. That's sad to hear. Are you applying online or via getting coffees with people in the data science team and just talking shop? The latter seems to have a high conversion rate if you can nail it.

This caused panic and chaos for a bit among my team, which I imagine was replicated across the web. Moments like these always remind me that a particularly clever or nefarious set of individuals could shut down essential parts of the Inter

There has always been a financial-legal-accounting complex that has accounted for some large percentage of the economy. That used to be a large part of the labor-capital compact -- at least some of the proceedings of capital were going to w

I think it's just a really interesting way to gate a contact form and get people to think twice about sending off an email. Lots of people have thought about how to avoid spam: finding a way to have to pay to get into an inbox might ju

Information is always incentivized one way or another, and people will keep things that contradict their narrative and incentives out of studies. That's a key flaw in peer-review research that I think needs to be addressed.

There should be a guide overall on how RSUs work, especially in an early-stage context, for startup employees. I feel like people toss percentages around but don't grasp the meaning of what they're about. This guide basically conv

Amazon, which has some very large amount of knowledge on your consumer spending habits if you use it regularly is now looking to get the complete financial picture for a not-so-insignificant percentage of the world. There's some powerf

One of the things I think this story highlights is just how much gain there can be in looking at unsexy things that nobody cares about but everybody needs. I know quite a few startups that are really good at doing that -- no noise, but they
