Better yet, don’t take VC money. VC is a cancer that has destroyed our industry.

Were you by any chance in college 20 years ago? Absolutely none of this tracks for me, it smacks of someone extrapolating their tiny niche to the entire world. PS: Limewire was loaded with browser toolbars and malware. The definition of cor

As a counterpoint... 50 or 60 years ago your average person wouldn't be familiar with QWERTY unless they were in one of a fairly small number of professions (secretary, author, journalist...). QWERTY was something you had to learn. The

The issue I have with Lightning is that over time they tend to develop side to side wobble, to the point the connection becomes unreliable.
