As much as I hate to admit, I do agree with Thiel's point (barely mentioned after the first paragraph) that the vast majority of thought is being driven by politically intolerant left-leaning liberals. I am absolutely one of them, but

Unless data plans increase alongside this, it just means most people will just reach their caps dramatically quicker. At least for me, speed isn't currently the big limiting factor; the data cap is.

Wonder why Q4 had such a big bump but Q1 2018 seems to be dropping back down to prior levels. Is this just people purchasing subscriptions at the holiday? Discounts? Special content?

This seems like confirmation bias to me. How many bubbles or fads were called by people that evaporated (beanie babies, troll dolls, etc)?

Sure, but there are also ways for governments to close these loopholes as well. It's not necessarily on tech companies to solve, but it is up to the government and its citizens to ask for change (if this does not follow the spirit of t

This will be a massive change and regulation for free to play game companies in the US. Still not clear what form this will take, but it will impact thousands of games and many of the top grossing from Machine Zone, Kabam, WB, Supercell, et

Frankly, this seems like a great article pointing out exactly why the VC and startup space is such a male dominated area. So many clear male biases here (exude confidence, fake it until you make it, etc)

So what happened? If done right -- and it could take 2 years or more -- we'll end up with a patent system that produces fewer patents (fewer people will bother to apply for 3 or 5 year patents, and fewer patents means less work for th

There's no risk to the movie theaters here, I just don't really understand how this business model works for MoviePass. Article says they're paying full price for the tickets and eating the costs.

Maybe I am more old school in this regard, but I don't think it is a requirement to find a fulfilling job just out of college. As you grow in your career, so do your opportunities and your ability to choose the work that suits your des

Part of the issue is that many people will be willing to answer questions like these anonymously, but asking the "why" identifies those employees. Most of the time people don't speak up because they are afraid of the conseque

Excel is the biggest one, for sure. I still think there are many who really prefer the features and functionality of PowerPoint and Outlook, though. I haven't seen that be the case for Word, but Word has never really been a significant

I think part of the problem is that the cost to produce a movie is so expensive and the risk of creating a new story/IP is large enough that few studios are willing to take that chance. Pixar is one of the few.
