Any US withdrawal was going to end with the Taliban taking over, regardless of method. All of the costs were always going to be in vain as there was no way to actually win.

Much like certain sports teams and other cult products or companies its loyal supporters are incredibly annoying and turn off people who might otherwise be open to it.

Everything is rallying to new highs. Tech stocks are doubling or tripling up in a quarter, or even just a month, just based on a single earnings beat.

I used to have a bad habit of saying "thanks man" and "hey guys" regardless of who I was talking to. In all cases it was more due to laziness and habit than anything else and I was somewhat unaware of it. It wasn't

The whole platform is around the major threat and consequences of automation and how UBI can help. He's far too smart to think he's going to pull of a Trump type miracle. The message is the goal. My assumption 1. Yang knows that h

I don't think it would make sense to do so from a business perspective unless they were concerned about elevating their post graduate placement rates. Most students pay upfront or on a monthly basis for bootcamps. It would be a lot eas

Wait, does #3 imply you enroll students who don't want to work as a programmer after graduating? i.e. a online marketer who wants to learn coding as a skill set. I would assume these types would be filtered out during the admissions pr

Appreciate the response! First part: Makes perfect sense Second part: How do you assess this beyond prior school/work history or how quickly they finish the prep course? I could see it being much more difficult to assess with older stu

What exactly is your admissions criteria for someone to get accepted to LS? How big of a problem is that for your student-to-job conversion rate when the criteria has to become less stringent to scale?

The biggest joke in all of this is that someone like Bezos or Zuck or Dorsey etc actually cares about shit like this. They don't. They live in a completely different world detached from 99.9% of the populace.

He didn't give anything up. He can have his job back anytime he wants it back realistically. Title should be "Quitting your 9-5 is easy, just make sure you are loaded with $$$ and have the most in demand skill set on the planet.&q

Everyone viewing this thread is likely an extreme outlier. The majority of millennials are prob making less than 50K until their 30s/40s.

What I would tell my 25 year old self (just turned 35) 1. Hire a good personal trainer and go consistently. 2. Your thinking should always be in decades, not years: Investing, relationships, career, etc. Patience is something most 25 year o

FB isn't going anywhere lol. The HN bubble is so much fun. The recent swatch of negative press is just amplified 10x in the US because it almost always revolves around Donald Trump being elected. If Hillary won and this same stuff leak
