No. It doesn't matter how "rich" or "powerful" you are, that does NOT give anyone else the right to decide if you're out or not. Thiel being who he is doesn't complicate things in the slightest.

Well, given that, in the vast majority of cases, busting your ass for a startup doesn't get you anything (either the company still fails, or your equity gets dilluted to shit and you lose money compared to what you would have had worki

Elon Musk has accomplished much in business. He has failed miserably at his family life. So how much has he accomplished?

At the same time, not every gay person wants to be publically out. I'm perfectly fine with any publication that forces that upon someone dying in a fire.

"If the token is tradable on public markets" Why would they be? And if they could do that, why bother with the added complexity of that, and just make their stock tradable on public markets?

Except one generally does not have to sacrifice pay to get that. The idea that those things are only available by sacrificing significant wages is a myth.

I think most people like the concept of catching Pokemon as it is now. But I've of the biggest complaints is that you can't battle other trainers.

Why? Now instead of a stock cert, I have a token subject to the same restrictions, with fewer possibilities for redeeming.

Doing so, you're completely ignoring the problem of harassment. Not only ignoring, but basically putting up a huge neon sign saying, "Harassers come here and spew your harassment!" And I would have to consider working on such

You can engage in free speech wherever you want. But others are also allowed to engage in their free speech as well, which they can use to choose to rebuke you, and choose not to associate with you. And free speech is not dead on college ca

That's very much not true. College students can be just as petty and cliquish and bullying as high school students. And saying "Don't go there" isn't really a solution either. While the victim might not be there see

The issue is that you're punishing the victim. You're telling the victim of harassment that they're no longer able to participate in the community, despite them not having done anything wrong. And while you might not be inter

I use Lyft over Uber mainly because Lyft's business doesn't seem to be as corrupt and gross as Uber's.

If that happens once in a great while, then like you said, it happens. But if it's constantly happening, then the problem is you, not the people you're hiring.

This is wrong. Back in the day, unions did see that, and were happy to work with the companies. However, the companies were the ones that broke that social contract first, trying to frame negotiations as adversarial. And, so what if the emp

But if I can't transfer my money out, how is that any better? If I don't like how the US government does things, I can move to another country that will have me, and I can convert all of my dollars to that country's currency.

Developers are also the ones that get yelled at, called on the weekends, and even fired if those cases happen. If you're willing to come in on the weekend to fix your query, be my guest. But I like being able to spend my weekend relaxi

So was I. While you could use a few of those sites, the device was clearly not happy about it, getting really warm, or just crashing sometimes. Shortly after, most of those sites released normal mobile versions anyway.

Flash was awful. It was buggy as hell, resource intensive as all hell, and a huge security risk. I am glad Apple did not allow it, otherwise every iOS device would have a glaring backdoor to where the government wouldn't have to ask to
