I don't think it would have a profound impact. The current incarnation of Twitter is only lackluster by Decacorn VC standards. The worst case scenario is the limp along like Yahoo has for the last decade. But during said limping a lot

I'd wager a bit more than that to maintain existing services. But they haven't given up on growth yet, disappointing news doesn't = throw in the towel. If these rumors are true, best of luck to those affected.

While some will condemn this is runaway greed, this is a natural side-effect of a healthcare system turned over to the private market. Outcomes and/or public health improvements are side-effects, if the happen great, but the motive wil

Is the sensational headline necessary?

The same is true on Wall St. A run of the mill analyst/associate/vp isn't going to burn their money by donating it to a political candidate.

We still have them in NYC. Right outside of Grand Central too (aka not the poor part of town).

How would they generate ROI on the investment? Google has no track record with social media, if anything they lack creativity more than Twitter does. There is also no argument for a supplementary role to their other product lines. Twitter j

What would they do? If they can maintain say 5% of its hype valuation that's worth more than the market/product they have (nothing).

Attributing that gain solely to senior management in ridiculous.

Is there a longer version that isn't cut up? If this is all they are showing it's a clear sign their self-driving tech is a very far ways off from not needing a driver.

Twitter is being told to be Facebook, when in-fact it needs to follow an entirely different paradigm, because it's intrinsically a different product. If Twitter is judge by what Facebook judges Facebook for success, it'll always f

No one cares about the emails per se, but the issue is a proxy for the narrative that she is untrustworthy... which is currently allowing Trump to close in the polls despite the word diarrhea that comes out of his mouth by the day.

Politicians in democratic countries overtly suppressing wages for the benefit for the super few (0.001%) is not politically feasible and anecdotally, is probably bad in a consumer driven economy (which the US is).

The purpose of H1B Visas is to supply talent that CANNOT be found domestically. They are not designed to suppress the wages of locals at the benefit to the owners of capital. This is no different than a company whining about a tax-loop hole

If it were to be successful, Apple would inevitably find itself paying the majority of the fine, even if it's after the fact.

Well, from the point of view of the Central Banks, creating any kind of economic activity is a plus, regardless if it'll be viable longterm for it's employees or if its "true innovation" (not noise). So the money faucets

Increase college tuition (even more?) with the hopes of stemming population growth? You know the majority of the planet doesn't actually attend college as is already?

It's missing from far more than just meat; the problem is raising taxes is politically painful in the short-term, and said policy will not reap any tangible benefits... The chances of a political solution (economics) to global warming

66% is overweight OR obese[1]. Being overweight doesn't pose as many health-risks as being obese.

Nope, leverage ratios are still too generous and if a bank failed, you can bet your ass we'd bail them out in a heartbeat.

I don't agree with all of Thiel's politics (I do identify as a libertarian thou), but I do respect the amount of courage it took to speak at this years RNC. The amount of disdain he'll receive from the Valley will be somethin

It's a shame too because one of the inhibiting factors of AI as complex as DeepMind is the fact it isn't cost effective due to its power consumption for quite a few tasks.

Something similar happened to me, I managed to end up somewhere close to what I wanted to be doing, but had I gone the "traditional" route it'd have been much easier with the same result.

While it's not directly related, I'd argue the antiques of the dark pattern Windows 10 upgrades show a glimpse of a company culture that is yearning to have enough monopoly power again to become anti-consumer as they were in their
