yeah, well, the profit could be $0 or negative and still have this valuation. I'm not that impressed by these numbers anymore, because it's mostly bullshit hype in an attempt to pump up a future IPO and make the investors rich.

I second this. I actually switched my entire household over to keypass because I was under the impression that I was forced to use the 1password cloud service.

It all depends on what you want. Working at a startup is usually more difficult, stressful, and for less pay. Even if the company is wildly successful, your stock options (if you have any) will most likely be worthless in the end (I'v

Why should the LGBTQ community be any more protected than any other group? I see hate towards white people, Republicans, and Christians on Twitter, Facebook, and Youtube and none of the content gets taken down. Complaints are responded wit

How is doing no research besides what you can find on a tweet, and heavily biasing an article towards one way considered 'reputable reporting'? I just can't believe that all right-leaning articles are false and all left-leani

"They worked so hard to research and create a 2000 word article that accurately reflects the world" I find this laughable. Many recent articles I've seen are designed to get clicks and have nothing to do with good journalism

I've had exactly this issue. I was working remotely a couple of years ago and the project manager couldn't effectively communicate (we were all remote in different parts of the US). The result was a disaster and the project manag

This is a good point. If everyone is working remotely, you will need to compete on salary with everyone in the world, not just in your area. Which might mean you can't afford rent.

While I don't agree with what Trump is doing, there is something to be said about students that come to the US to study, only to use the knowledge and information back home to destroy US companies.

I've been working remotely for over a decade. I love it because I get to spend more time with my family and have more time to work on my side business. This is mostly because there is no commute. I also have an office (I rent it mys

When I was younger, I had a boss that had security cameras around our small office. When he was at home (which was half the week), he would watch us through the cameras. These cameras also had two-way audio, so I would be having a conversa

It really depends on the suspect. If the suspect is a white supremacist, it's all over the news immediately. If it doesn't fit the current narrative, we might see the suspect 3 days later. I've been recently paying attentio

Housing price increases, at least in the US, are due to regulations..plain and simple. If you make it easier for houses to be built, the supply will out pace demand and the market will force these prices down.
