Did you seriously just try to equivocate climate change and child pornography?

Who else besides the FCC needs to approve SpaceX launching over 4,000 satellites into space? That seems like a fairly significant number of satellites, but admittedly I am a layman in this area.

Google wasn't really a cloud provider for like 15 years and hosted their own infrastructure that entire time.

Uber hosts its own infrastructure, so does Google, so does Facebook. All three of those companies have no problems remaining focused on their business models without turning into a "datacenter company." I strongly dislike the noti

Lol and he touts his safety record like the shit he was directly working on didn’t kill somebody a few months after he left. This whole blog reads like somebody still in denial.

I feel like people hear the word 'cryptocurrency' and ignore all of the well established risks of currency speculation as an investment strategy.

I feel like "Even if we get hacked" as a marketing message might send the wrong signals.

If you want people to show up with code why aren't you asking them to take home something and show you their solution in the interview, working through it step by step?

I think it's a bit arrogant to assume that tech companies (especially those based out of other countries) are deliberately trying to undermine governments rather than empower people.
