Just to clarify, we're debating whether Robinhood is a success and the measure of success being used is "can early investors cash out for a gain?" What if every company checked that box and couldn't provide lasting value

Yeah, a startup founder seeing a problem and having a clumsy, heavy handed, poorly thought out reaction is super refreshing. Hadn't been this refreshed since like, Friday.

As a recruiter, I have the same frustrations. The vast majority of founders seem to want candidates to have a deep connection to their mission so quickly and there's this expectation that the connection you built means you don't w

"I appreciate you trying to discredit me instead of the argument I was making" I'll just go ahead and roll my eyes at this trash.

I feel like I see this on the internet more and more lately. Paragraph one starts with some shoddy, made up evidence where they mock some idea and then you look for the start of paragraph 2 to figure out what they're really getting the

"We’re in a bubble that’s ready to burst IMO." People have been saying this every single day since I moved to San Francisco in 2009. I guess if you keep predicting it eventually, you might end up being right, but its not exactly i

I agree that people CAN do this, but do you believe that Mark's recent actions show that he HAS done this?

by ryguytilidie 9y ago
So you're saying they weren't actually doing that? Glad we agree.

And its almost as though you're being as disingenuous as possible while trying to mock others for being dishonest. Why not just debate in reality versus saying "well, if I'm intentionally obtuse, I can find a way to make ot

I really dont know how someone could read that story and think the point he was trying to make was "i'm impressed that this restaurant brought me new silverware".

Actually, it sounds exactly like he's judging people based on what they "have done".

You don't understand why people would pick a small monthly fee over a four figure purchase price for a phone? Because very few people have the savings or extra money to do so.

Yeah, paying for BART in the bay area is like: property taxes go to BART. BART uses it to pay gate agents $150k+ and do no infrastructure improvements. Another measure goes on the ballot because BART desperately needs money to fix infra. Bo

Are you operating under the belief that humans can only assign a single emotion to another...? I said that he was a bit disingenous about some thing and then said that he "lacked understanding about...", yet, sure, cut that off, r

To be clear, your analogy is that this fellow lashing out at certain groups of his coworkers can be attributed to their mental disorder you've diagnosed and you've then decided that this is the same as a person in a wheelchair bei

So, just to see if I follow: You make really bad claim that has 3 parts and all 3 parts are either made up, exaggerated or irrelevant. I explain, part by part, how these things are made up, exaggerated and irrelevant, and at the end of my p

I was under the impression that the route used to be very seasonal and is now year round because of the 787s.

So it sounds like you agree with me that he lacked an understanding of how to behave in a workplace?

"If you spend a lot of time railing on "SJWs", and comparatively little time advocating for an alternative path to a more egalitarian social order" I mean, if you want to debate, I'm happy to do so, but I'd pre

Well, whether you disparage it or not, grouping Joe Rogan and Milo together doesn't seem very accurate.
114.
by ryguytilidie 9y ago
Wait, Joe Rogan is considered a right wing youtuber? I listen to his show all the time and I'm a pretty big liberal and while he sometimes does the whole "everyone is sooooo PC now" thing, he also talks negatively about Trump

Okay I'll add a few more: San Jose to Manchester Oakland to Oslo London to Calgary I've definitely seen a trend of 787s making these routes possible. Dunno where the "point to point is marketing speak" comes from.

Yank here. I've flown the 380 twice. It's obviously better than the 747, which is a what, 40 year older plane, but that isn't the point. 787s and 350s are both just as nice and more economical for airlines. I prefer business

by ryguytilidie 9y ago
I think routes like San Jose-Manchester is a better example of why A350s and 787s are great. You're also seeing a lot of 787 flights out of Oakland instead of all bay area international travel being from SF. When I was a kid and lived

I'd say that goes beyond "really not that much different".
