FanDuel is going to do like $6B in revenue this year. This entire story above happened for three reasons: 1. The CEO made terrible decisions in regards to how much and who they raised from. They got in over their hands as the company grew a

This is a very thoughtful and sensible reply, but it's going to get lost in the storm and that is a shame. Personally I've always thought that a lot of these issues boil down to intentional misreading or lack of understanding of t

Yeah, there's a word for that: pedophile. That's straight grooming.

This is as good of an endorsement as you'll ever see. Also I am happy to be your next choice after Kyle. I'll join Stripe, Patrick!

Whaaaaaat! I attended CMU and didn't know this was a thing. I tried my best to turn all of my dorm-mates in Schlag on to the demoscene for months! I don't know how much or if any of it stuck, but I can feel assured that "El

My compliments on one of the few times I've actually seen that phrase used and spelled correctly.

People want it both ways. They want private business to use the free market to develop more efficient and better solutions than a socialized system, but also a limit to just how much that free market should compensate them. Either you'

It's so unnecessarily callous and such an unforced error. Why do this? Why accrue all of this bad PR for no reason? Fuck Elmo. What a dick.

It's annoying that so many comments, depending on your tribe, try to pin the problem on one thing. Oh, it's because they're soft on crime. Oh, it's because Reagan shut down the mental health support system. And on and on

Simple: never listen to influencers about anything. They are not your friends. They are paid to sell you things, and in almost all cases, with zero disclosure of that.

This reads like a press release to me.

The exact same thing happened/is happening at Carnegie Mellon. To the school, the undergraduates are nothing but PR and legal liabilities, therefore any fun or social life must be eradicated.

It's news that Thiel is a villainous, hypocritical sociopath? Since when?

What does anyone care what that war criminal Kissinger thinks? Could you possibly find someone older, less reputable or less relevant than him?

For only $10 more, they'll send you three pounds of fries served in a greasy paper bag, a Terrible Towel, and a Donnie Iris cassette single of "Ah! Leah!". It's the best deal in academia. All jokes aside, if you'll

Sports, News, and Finance. Those verticals are all MASSIVE. Remember, just because you don't use them, that doesn't mean no one does. My opinion, news is pretty clickbaity but Sports (particularly the season-long fantasy games) an

I was too young for DL but I absolutely remember its cousin, the hologram-driven Time Traveler [0]. It blew me away when I saw it in my local arcade, but I don't remember it being a good game at all. Most of my quarters at that time (1

It's instructive in the sense of knowing where to avoid anti-knowledge lunatics hellbent on destroying objective truth.

Back in the day, I used to oversee a lot of usability research for a well-known travel engine. Every single time, people would choose the lowest possible base price. It did not matter if you explained to them how uncomfortable it might be,

Well, it's a pretty simple calculus for the owners. You're going to get people to pay for my stadium, Mr. Politician, or else losing this thing that millions of people in this city love is going to be, fairly or unfairly, blamed o

I think the bigger problem is most of the companies that go public this way are dogshit money-losers that shouldn't be public in the first place.

Did you see the clip at all? Elon looks genuinely flummoxed. He has no idea how disliked he is, because, as I said, he's surrounded by sycophantic goons. Getting repeatedly and viciously booed at a Dave Chappelle show -- regardless of

His metamorphosis into Trump is happening really quickly, isn't it? He clearly has no one close who is willing to be honest with him. Just a bunch of bootlickers (Sacks) and lackeys (Calacanis). He also looked genuinely surprised that
