The money quote - These investors, including myself, know what you don’t, and they are not telling you. The minute you ask for money, you are playing in their game, they aren’t playing in yours. You are at a huge disadvantage, and

The article is a great example of over-thinking things that should be really simple. Whatever you are doing, you should choose a career you can enjoy. Some people are really picky of what (in their view) constitutes meaningful and fulfillin

This is a classic example of anti-competitive market fixing, masquerading as a "regulation to protect consumers" or somesuch. There is no legitimate justification to infringe on a contract between a willing buyer and a willing seller, but t

I see the biggest problem with "startup advice" is the bias or an outright conflict of interest from most of these "advisors". They are usually trying to sell you something and anything they say has to be heavily discounted on that basis al

Any kind of Do Not Track mandate from the government would be a grotesque overreach. Data collection and tracking is not infringing on anyone's rights and liberties by itself. If someone believes they have been hurt in a specific way they c
