Does anyone report to you? If they do, how would you respond if they said “I’d like to check in with you on my progress/metrics/etc... just once a year.” Sound like a good idea? It’s a terrible idea for managing people and a te

Ask any of these CEOs if it would be cool to hear from there direct reports once a year or once a decade. This is just a whining plea for no accountability from managers. The right to execute a long term vision has to be earned by effectiv

This is not confined to tech. When I look at senior people in all the fields my friends and family work in, you have a small core group who - bless them - live for the work and thrive on it, a good chunk of very successful people who like i

The bundling model whether streaming or cable is obsolete. The iTunes model of pay per episode makes much more sense - although it was much preferable when you could rent an episode for .99 rather than buy it for 2.99.

NYC has plenty of very good very safe public schools. Gone (at least for now) is the need to move to the burbs or pay up private for that.

Can't speak to the Bay Area but in NYC we have hit the physical limits of population until there is a serious investment in infrastructure. The subways are bursting at the seams. In Manhattan we are running out of sunlight. These artic

Not trying to be a troll about this but in a democracy is it really honest to say "it wasn't the people who spent all this money it was the politicians"? Yes we can caveat that no democracy is perfect but PR isn't North

I have images of those tales told about how GM purchased the LA streetcars only to destroy them running through my head. What terrible news.

This is some strange and random spew. It doesn't even add up to an interesting lie.

I love the navel gazing attitude that Austin is the most talked about city in the world. Um... no.

Agree with you Hugh. Per capita comparisons are silly given the vast population differential. I love San Fran and am no basher here but the geography+zoning of San Fran makes it an enclave for the high income with no place for anything else

Use paper trading for a while on a platform like Interactive Brokers before going live. You will find it's unlikely you discovered the holy grail but hey maybe you have. Just be wary of a common trap for both beginners (excusable) and
