I wonder if people blindly defending Marisa and painting her as a female hero will finally ope their eyes and see clearly that she is - at most - a very average CEO... Yahoo needed someone amazing and it failed to find one.

Just when I started using web app my gut told me that Facebook wont allow WhatsApp to directly compete with messenger and Facebooks messaging platform. If both would allow similar technology they not only would be fighting over the same mar

I agree, but that is just handful of them, isnt it?

Great article, its amazing how back in the days so many aristocrats and rich people were actually conquering the world, breaking the limits and sponsoring life saving experiments. It was much different than we have today - get as much money

I wonder if its part of Panama Leaks counter measures. Make US and SA look bad and make them hostile towards each other to cover up the leaks.

The problem for me is that "much simpler" is not good enough. With DO for example when I go to their panel I never used it before it will take me tops 1 hour to find all the possible options, all perks and cons, everything. In jus

And yet they managed to make another complicated cloud service. Would be nice if someone would cater for Startup owners that do not have time to study documentation and overlook multiple processes just to run a simple bot etc.

Oh yes, because democracy worked so well for Muslim countries in an US and EU sponsored experiments across Muslim world... Not all countries can handle democracy, its not a magic cure.

This does not sound like point of view, just a generic, corporate style message that does not address the issue in any way. Rewarding only new customers is mobile phone operators style bite that decreases value of the brand and product. In

Calories counting diet always work. What you are seeing here is miscalculation probably. Here, send me a PM and I will look over your diet. There is NO WAY you could be on a "fatter" side eating only 1200 calories. You wont cheat

Very few public, true fitness instructors and dietitians are following the simplest rule ever - decrease calories to lose weight. This method is not that popular, its to tricky since it requires for person to calculate foods, which makes it
