In the EU, the supply of medical services generally qualifies for exemption from VAT, among other taxes. Same applies with charitable donations... that is pretty much a US thing too. The $100 number is an all-in cost. I know this as I come

IMHO, it can go both ways. It can definitely be mismanagement, but it can also be mismanagement by the VCs who have outbid each other on a "hot" company. To a large extent it is the CEOs role to maximise capital raised while reduc

I totally understand, and respect that. I'm sure there are ways (price plans) to get NAS owners to signup. I might have a NAS, but defiantly don't have petabytes of data, but on average 1TB to 1.5TB on my NAS. I'd be happy to

Hi Yev, do you know if Backblaze is thinking of supporting NAS backups in the near future? I really want to use Backblaze, but what is really stopping me from using you guys is not being able to backup my NAS. Thanks

I understand your comment, and you are probably right. I like to watch movies/tv shows in their original language, so not many would be open to pay to watch english only shows... I don't know.

What would really be groundbreaking is to allow non-US based viewers to subscribe to the service, without any type of geo fence. I would be happy to pay for the service as a European consumer. That would mean no more GoT torrenting for me.

You can't call someone with a well reasoned argument a 'fool'. These guys explain very well the 'why not', and they aren't advising first time founders to turn TS down.

This issue hits a home run with me: "Ideological Moderators". I was a very active Quora user on 2010-2011, I'd visit the site over 10 times a day, I would write any answers on Word, make sure they were thorough, well written,

Then you are using the wrong term. Value investors (those who use models such as DCF and DDM) are not considered 'quants' in the investment community. My point is, quants can be speculators too (and more often than not they are).

From your generalisation we can then say that LTCM falls under "Quants", and Warren Buffet under "Gamblers".
