Folks, I was sick of the click-bait I came across so much, and wanted a place I could go to explore worthy new ideas. I figured books were a good place to find them, so I made BookStorm. BookStorm uses no algorithms to select the books it

I agree with the author concerning content and ads, but find it ironic that the article's title is so click-baity and misleading (considering she never implies content is actually dying, just that its business model is).

The bit you found is reasonable, but there's a movement to forbid it. For example, it's illegal to photograph the Eiffel Tower at night when its lights are lit: http://wiki.gettyimages.com/897/

One doesn't need to be materialistic to feel regret about missing the chance to acquire money. Maybe he has philanthropic goals that will go unmet, maybe he has startup ideas that capital could've helped test, etc.

Soon they'll protest college rankings. Princeton shouldn't be in the top 10 because one of its buildings is named after a racist. Stanford should be knocked out because it's only 6.5% Latino. Et cetera.
