It was really heart breaking for me an interview with him that I watched where the interviewer asked him something like "You combine comedy with high quality in-depth journalism. Do you consider yourself a comedian or a journalist?&quo

Exactly. But back in those days Telegram was WAY ahead of WhatsApp (in terms of features). Nowadays, the ability of logging in onto the webapp without your phone is pretty much the one thing that Telegram does better. I read somewhere (mayb

My comment on sheep is being misunderstood in the original post. I'm not calling people sheep for liking an app. I'm calling people sheep for not questioning the lore "that no one leaves <insert social media> because al

"A bet on AMZN today is largely a bet on AWS" Haha you gotta be joking. It's just the opposite. AWS is a business at scale with fat margins. Amazon retail isn't at scale, not even close.

I would be very interested to hear what data you think imgur could sell. Also, I know that on a website like imgur native pays about as little as display. The fact that imgur tried Taboola a while ago and eventually ditched it seems to corr

I'm not sure you got my point. Everyone, the author included, agrees that his work is absurd. What I am adding is that additionally it's done in a way that's unfunny.

Seconded, I think it's massively overrated. This seems to be a rule with absurd humour. The good bits are golden, the average is quite mediocre, and then in popular culture old the good bits are remembered so that the thing end up bein

From the history of business it seems to me that many/most of the great innovations are making things a lot cheaper and convenient. Cars weren't transformational when only a few rich people could afford them. So depending on how s

This is also my first instinct. But be careful, people who do things you find wrong might still have intelligent things to say. Evaluate ideas on their own merit.
