Cityside resembles my dreamy goal, except mine would be built around a revenue stream and could therefore (potentially) exist in middle America, where relying on donors wouldn't cut it for long. Thanks for the mention, I had never hear

Craigslist had both free and paid categories, and I believe at its peak revenues would have supported the investments I'm imagining - especially in second and third tier markets. By the time these ideas came to me, most of these papers

I long entertained an alternate reality where I was Craig Newmark and I invested in smaller local and regional newspapers, creating close synergies between their online operations and those of Craiglist. The plan would be to expect the coll

I find that when I regularly exercise and don’t drink at dinner I can put kid to bed and have a few more hours available. But - big but - spending that evening time working has become anathema to me. The best rule I’ve put in place is work

Yeah, if you're cooking tonight something with critical ingredients I might not rely on the pickup for that, but they email me what is out so I'm not caught unaware. It's basically just like if I went to the store to get orga

Meanwhile, grocery pick-up has revolutionized the process. All the convenience of ordering online (including the ability to repeat your last order) with none of the expense of delivery to factor into the offering. Plus coupons! I’ve been in

GitLab’s valuation is pinned on charging enterprise customers for a system that replaces Jira and is more closely aligned with devops. The problem is you can’t much go ala carte - you have to go all-in.

Housing valuation over the last decade is not entirely dissimilar from crypto valuation over the same period. But while they are both irrationally overvalued, you can’t mine for new housing stock.
