perhaps im being naive (or biased), but why donate $500m to a SV foundation rather than say use that money to address those in more needier positions? Maybe I'm misinterpreting the 'Giving Pledge' ideals but I believe they were meaning don

couldn't agree more, the things you book up front you will regret and wish you'd waited to arrange when you got there. 6 months in south america and the one thing I booked (machu picchu trek) was a constant annoyance to plan around. dont en

Yes, seen it happen but you can often talk your way out of it, or print a fake bus ticket. Other times you'll be less lucky, it really depends on how you get on the desk. Technically its the law in a lot of countries but often not enforced

you don't really address anything to do with being a solo-founder in your article. sure your subject to external pressures like everyone, but the benefits of having co-founders allows you different perspectives. It forces you to challenge y

I think he means tied up more in the sense of its 'difficult' to move it for the average user. sure you can pull out your content and sync it to android if you know what your doing (read - tech savvy-ish) but the vast majority of the users
