If the roles were reversed, I would have a similar criticism of the other guy. Clearly, the loser didn’t want to pay because he contested it in court — and the victor could have forgiven the debt. I wouldn’t even make my friend pay me back

Why is no one talking about the true jerk in this situation? The guy legally forcing the other to mortgage his house in order to give him $500k — because of rock, paper, scissors...

I love this concept. Is there a maximum distance that you stop broadcasting to preserve privacy?

I think there is small class of founders who fail and end up better off than their employees but it is not the majority of cases. If you factor in resume/connections/experience, that number is certainly higher -- but that seems fa

You are definitely right for CEOs of large companies. But for small (aka most) businesses, including startups, you might be surprised. It’s also important to note that some business owners don’t have the luxury of being able to cut their ow

I think it’s counter-productive. He is making this seem like a huge sacrifice when, in fact, it’s par for the course. I wish if he wanted to talk about it, he would make it less about himself and more about “what it takes to run a business”

Almost everyone I know who has run a business (myself included) has made similar sacrifices. This is not that rare. This guy seems to serially try to generate PR by making himself out to be a selfless CEO. In doing so, he is implying that m

Or the Mac market is so much smaller that the iOS market that there is practically no competition for an in-demand RSS reader on Mac and barely any space to enter the market on iOS.

Ah yes, life’s biggest questions. Do we have free will? Is there an objective reality? Why have a tablet instead of a highly portable touch screen laptop? Instead of answering that, I will just say that I am only suggesting improvements on

As an iPad Pro user, I don’t feel that it needs a trackpad. It needs better software (and better keyboard hardware — which is coming along with the trackpad, thankfully). I want to be able to use it to type long-form essays and develop apps

Well, if you are resorting to VMWare/VirtualBox -- you might as well use WSL, since it's just a VM optimized for OS integration. Wine, OTOH, is a runtime, not a VM... and I've personally never been able to get it to work (I&#

Other than for DX, is there a reason to go with Netlify or Zeit? I personally don't care about this.

I have TikTok installed on my iPhone — I have no account and scroll through it a bit every day until screen time tells me to stop. It has no access to my location, microphone, or camera. I type nothing into the app. I’m not sure how this co

In my opinion, even that is not sufficient. In most cases, decentralization will only succeed if its architecture gives a significant advantage over the alternative centralized one. Let’s say you make a social network that people don’t need

This makes no sense. Why would the body prefer to break down a functional store of energy when has access to a non-functional one?

Why wouldn’t there be such thing as a 10x programmer? Is the average programmer so good? There are outliers in every industry. Professional athletes are a clear example — they are often many orders of magnitude better than the average playe

This is good news, but I’m surprised it doesn’t seem to be in any way related to Stadia, which is more aligned with ChromeOS’ philosophy and, as mentioned in the article, would be compatible with the poor specs that Chromebooks are specific

As cool as Canvas and WebGL are, they also enable privacy violations, allowing web browsers to be uniquely fingerprinted. I am not saying people shouldn’t use them, but just be aware that when you do, you are making some of the web less acc
