Sorry if it upsets people, but Ownership has been gradually been destroyed over the years and this is just another example. I could go on a Libertarian rant, but I'm sure you've already heard about cars being raided without a reas

I'm sorry Google people, but I find such company to be disguting. Inspite of the fact its main business relies on advertisement, Google believes it is entitled to be a monopoly in technology(any sector). One could use Thiel's argu

In theory, but for an early country it's a long shot. With many races, you'd have to handle many different cultures and give out some of that freedom in exchange for equality.

If you're just an engineer(no seniority/management required), you'll be fine, but wages are low in my country. If you wanna be an senior/lead/head engineer, many assume you weren't competent enough to manage th

My experience for failing in a developing country: it might take you to a different industry. I was the technical founder in the startup and finding a technical job afterward became harder. However, I did get a job in VC and then PE because

What most people don't realize is that, working in a startup, he probably holds a large amount of equities. When/If there is an exit, he will cash out a LOT more than his employees. That's his real 'bonus'. In Wall

Yes, Foursquare's situation is bad. Still, it has gathered precious and unique data. One shouldn't underestimate its holistic value.

Such a sad announcement. Organizations like this and the Bitcoin Foundation eventually become so self-centered they start to undermine the work of all past contributors. Hope the community works around these issues.

Honestly, criticizing men at the micro-level is quite unrealistic and pointless. Controlling speech and avoiding saying 'guys' won't do much at the macro-level of women's rights. Hostility has never worked to foster equa
