Uhhh, no. If you know you are going to be attracting users with some extreme views, make sure you have a strategy to scale up your moderation tools and staff, or at least APPEAR to be doing it. Their "oh, it's just too hard to mod

I don't know if this is the "right" thing to do, but I am certainly in favor of hearing more future-learning solutions versus pre-internet solutions that merely introduce friction to slow growth.

Any of those points could be applied to nationhood... except the part about Bitcoiners eating only meat? And I doubt it's the first since 2000... I hear about stupid new cults trying to recruit members and cash every week.

His official title was Dir. of Product Management, which as you probably know, does not project integrity either.

People might ask the same question about gold, but after hundreds of years, it's still here as a scarce asset with speculative value.

Or maybe it was some engineer making the point that the data wasn’t accurate or reliable in the first place.

So you would rather pay a commission fee AND have order-flow sold as opposed to no fee and just sold order-flow? No matter where you trade right now, all the brokerages are practicing this.

Not only was he not convicted for it, but the charge was dropped.

Mastercard blocked charges from them and VISA signaled they would do the same. Pretty simple.

Maybe you are forgetting the part where Russ Hanneman loses money and then acts desperately to force them to monetize?

I’m no fiat apologist, but certainly there was poverty before 1971.

Lol, I think we are arguing the same point.

Did you actually read it? "If all the electricity use of the USA was distributed evenly among its population, and all of it came from nuclear power, then the amount of nuclear waste each person would generate per year would be 39.5 gra

Yes. Also, they are sitting on $0.8B in cash.

It's a super interesting point: why are these games so appealing to tweens and are dismissed as shit to everyone else? I spent about 10 hours playing a game on the platform called Bee Swarm Simulator and some other game where you build

Don't you think it depends on the existing players' cash horde after an IPO? I am very interested to hear a successful VC's response to "I want to go against Uber, DD, and GrubHub. Money plz!"

This is not an unreasonable argument but you're negating the company and the industry ability to innovate and find new rev models. I use to frequently see this argument made about Apple and Amazon before Apple's transition to &quo

That's a valid and interesting point, but they are also swallowing the competition. If you believe their chart on page 3, uber actually lost marketshare over the last 22 months while DD grew 33%. I imagine at some point the industry ma

Hats off to you for actually reading the S-1 and not just coming to this thread to drop an opinion about the industry or VCs.

Interesting comment but some prelim research can help us understand if it has legs: Look up the S-1 from those companies and compare the numbers.

It's pretty bold of them to claim a performance edge. Figma smokes them in every corner of this metric.

If you're implying nuclear power is just a pork barrel scam to milk the tax base money and jobs, then I am really starting to understand why we, as Americans, may never meaningfully tackle climate change. Even Joe Biden is pitching con

Why would India and China need to covertly enrichment weapon material? Their nuclear weapon programs are well-known.

There will be a lot of smart people in this thread saying nuclear doesn't make economic sense, and honestly I don't know how accurately quantify the price myself, but if you look at a map of all nuclear energy projects under const
