Ideas are worthless, execution is everything. Famous mantra on old school HN, and the same philosophy held by some of the most famous inventors in history such as Ford, Edison, Musk, etc.

Please please please banish the patent system already. It is solely used by corrupt lawyers to persecute and rob successful entrepreneurs.

I still don't get how he multiplied $70k to $264m... And this reporter seems to just take all of Weschler's claims at face value... BUT Warren Buffett is famous for great due diligence and high levels of ethics... So I guess it p

The problem with remote work is lack of accountability. Every worker bee buzzes that "just let me finish my work and be on my way", but that's just not how business works. Employers require either bossware to watch employees

Elon was defending free speech in Brazil under Brazil's own laws. If this article is true (many from the verge are false in my opinion), then this is a sad day.

Government regulations are always going to be far behind clever people. It is better to reduce government regulations and use the courts to stop abuses.

Awesome! This is how the free market works without government regulations.

Get rid of patent law and government regulations and then no one will need to roll their own medicine, because everything will be very inexpensive and high quality.

Right to repair is truly a vital human right we should fight hard for. That and the right to free speech.

France has turned into a Soviet style communist state with persecutions of people for exercising what should be a basic human right - the right to free speech.

This is very common in organizations where decision makers do not have proper incentives like in a free market. More government = less accountability.

I have not been involved in Chinese legal cases, but I've been involved in several US legal cases at various levels. I would recommend more tiers in the small claims system. So under $10k, both sides present to judge 10 minutes each an

Disney has become quite an evil corporation. I would like my four kids to watch Disney classic movies, but I refuse to give such a company my dollars.
