Not to diminish Anand's credibility at all - but why does he have to be anything other than some random web developer? Does everyone have to have some magical backstory to qualify to ship something great? The primary difference between

AT&T / Verizon (and the cable companies) will never give up their golden goose unless threatened by competition. They can do FTTC all day long - unless they actually uncap or otherwise significantly change the subscriber bandwidth

In case you are serious about not getting it: you can operate at a loss in a number of situations: if you have profits in reserve, if you have available credit to float the difference in revenue, or a combination therein. You cannot bleed f

For the most part, restaurant meals do look like the ads, or even better than the ads. This does not apply to fast food stores like McDonalds, Wendys, Subway, etc. Fast food stores don't build their reputation around how their food loo

Maybe they have something more specific... but haven't we seen stuff like this every January for the past few years or more? I recall at least two major manufacturers demoing this.

$42M actual loss, $382M in tax accounting fluff. They're estimating profitability by end of FY2015 (february 2015). That sounds reasonable, given the investments they're making on the future of the company, rather than just trying
