Masterclass is such a brilliant business model. They're charging close to the same fees as Netflix, yet their production costs are very little. They don't need to bet millions on some show or pilot and become a flop. They can quic

part of me is curious if this is a way to appease the administration due to high pressure [0] and wait out the next election cycle. They are talking about 2021-2029. Even if Trump is reelected, I could see them leasing an existing fab and h

When Apple vs. PC wars first started, PC won because of software. It’s a lesson Steve learned which is probably still guides their thinking. This is why there is numbers, keynotes, Pages, etc. Apple still wants to empower the creative commu

fair point! I guess we can also look at the success of Golang and attribute it to similarity to C. I remember I was able to do all the Go's online tutorial in couple of hours because it was so familiar to me. To your point, if you want

That was also my first impression. Not to devaluate the value of any type of handholding. I think the hardest part in this process is becoming an "influencer". Recently I've been playing around making leather goods, so that
