Is that what the author intended to convey? I also question the quality of materials you're getting for that price, as well as the architecture of the house. In the same area, I've seen 4000 sq ft. houses sell for $150,000 and 400

The differences in their gifts also account for a lot. If Curry continues through his prime like he's played the past two seasons, he'll be the greatest shooter of all time. Kobe was never a great jump shooter but was remarkable a

It will be interesting to compare this shot chart, of the greatest scorer of his generation, to what Steph Curry's, who may be the greatest scorer of his generation, career shot chart ends up being. Where Curry's game is extremely

I'd say most of the time you're open in that band, you have time to take a step back and shoot behind the line. I'd guess the few shots that are in that band came off of screens where you only have a brief moment to get a sho

Gilbert seems to have seen the trend of midwesterners embracing their central cores well ahead of everyone else. What he's done in Cleveland has been pretty smart. He started by purchasing the Cavaliers and becoming a relatively vocal

Do most VC's think this way and is this actually a "rule", meaning it's the way you succeed? I'd think VC investing is like most other types of investing where you can take on different strategies depending on your

Let's be honest: what percentage of people use this type of video streaming to watch content they have rights to watch and what percentage are using it watch content they don't have rights to watch? My best guess is that a larger

You seem to think content creators sit in some evil dungeon, plotting out ways to screw their readers with ads. That's not really it at all. There are a limited number of ad networks out there and publishers attach themselves to one or

Are you comparing the price of Spotify to the price of Netflix? If so, it's not a remotely fair comparison. The percent of mainstream music Spotify doesn't have is miniscule to the amount of mainstream video Netflix lacks. Take Ne

If people further east have to wait until 2019 or 2020 to buy these, it could run into phase outs of the tax credits. $7500 off a $35000 is a pretty nice deal. Hopefully those of us out east can still take advantage of it.

Most advertisers aren't throwing blind money around and most ads are sold by impressions and not clicks, so clickbots aren't that big of a deal. If you're able to do attribution at the impression level, you're far less w

It's not really a comparable situation. Yes, there are lots of content providers who create terrible content and shove tremendous amounts of ads in your face to try and make a quick buck. There are also people producing quality content
