I don't know about Apple, but you are wrong about Disney. They may have been meandering for a while but over the last decade (and change), current leadership has made three multi-billion dollar visionary acquisitions that turned the co

A couple of years ago I applied for a job at Hipmunk and ended interviewing with Steve, then the CTO. I don’t remember everything but at some point he did ask me to write a program that prints out a spiral. Reading this article, and remembe

When someone asks me a question in real life I don’t focus on “Why”. I focus on “How” (can I help them). Most arguments down the thread seem just as moot to me, but then again, I’m probably not smart enough for a Twitter IQ thread.
