Seems obvious in retrospect. Wonder if the freezing adversely affects anything? Probably not.

Very interesting. I wonder how much of the viability of the idea is due to Japanese culture, or whether others could also benefit from such a concept.

Yeah, I was thinking about that. The thing about Pokemon and Nintendo is that demand for a good mobile game was always there. I do think that we will be seeing a lot more AR in the future as a result of this.

I disagree. The most critical part is #3. Were this not Pokemon hardly anyone would care. Don't know much about Ingress but didn't it have #1 and #2 already..?

This is a ridiculously biased and oversimplified view. If everyone operated on your espoused principles, nobody would be incentivized to innovate. You seem to believe the Chinese have some God-given right to get to the state of the art. No,

Poor example to choose; calculus is critical for several fields. There are a lot of AP courses that are taken largely because students need that feather in the cap for college applications, but at least calc comes in useful down the line fo

What? OF COURSE he has a right to interfere, he can say whatever he damn well pleases. Furthermore, all he said was to knock it off; you seem to imply he lectured them or something similar. He set an example by demonstrating their behavior

EDIT: Ah, made the connection at the end w/ Zuckerberg. Still don't think this is well written though. If someone told me a high school student (or even a precocious middle schooler) wrote this, I wouldn't be surprised.

I have no opinion on Uber leadership coming into this, and would just like to see some elaboration on point 4? I certainly would agree that there are companies with leadership teams as you describe, so I'm not opposed to that notion. J

It's a big achievement, of course. But on your CV? No. I fail to see how you could convey the lengths you went to in dealing with a bad adviser in a brief, tactful way on a CV. Nor would I want to; seems like it could easily backfire.

This is insane. They can't even prove he was at or ever went to said correctional facility! That should be enough to throw this out the window. I hope Doig gets suitable compensation for this waste of time.

Very cool project, but - and I mean no offense by this - these views are taught in basic finance! There are similar graphs in standard finance texts. So it surprises me that so many people here seem to be caught off guard. I look forward to
