All those drivers will be out of business in a few years when Uber roles out its autonomous cars. (which is not a bad thing per say; these people will be forced to find other work)

Judging from drivers posting on reddit, I would say ~$10-$15. Or in most cities it is near minimum wage.

Chinese (Mandarin) text to speech still shares the problem of not sounding natural (sounds robotic), but it is a little better than English. Example (click on the blue speaker icon): http://dict.baidu.com/s?wd=%E7%88%B1%E5%B

Seems like one of those things I'll play with for about 30 minutes, think it's cool, and then never touch it again.

Which of those have free breakfast, lunch and dinner? Your just naming big tech companies in SV. Most of which have horrible perks and known to be cheap. I mean Cisco? HP? EA? Seriously? (the only one that has great perks on your list is ne

So? You must haven't been investing for very long. Try keeping that up for 10 years straight then come report to us.

None, just put your money in an S&P 500 fund. I doubt you will be able to beat that in the long run anywhere else (Even though there are flaws w/ how the S&P 500 is run now [1]). [1] http://www.joshuakennon.com/

Wealthfront is 3x (.25% vs .05%) more expensive than a lot of great Vanguard funds [1]. And with Wealthfront you might be investing in major index funds anyway except you end up paying more. Why not go with any of Vanguard's S&P 50

Your anecdotal evidence is not representative of all Amazon customers... or even most. Edit: saw your response, fair enough.

You must live in a bubble or have never worked at a large company before. There are two totally different teams building these products. Is it really that inconceivable for them (yes, even Google) to make this oversight?

The midwest is not the future of startups and will not overtake Silicon Valley in the next 15 years. Yes you can find talent in the midwest but do you think top CS grads from CMU, UIUC, Purdue, etc. want to stay in the midwest after graduat

And let me guess, you went over on a 30-day (or 60 or 90 max) tourist visa? Try getting a Chinese work visa from a startup (or one you found). USCIS's new rule proposal allows entrepreneurs to stay legally in the U.S. an initial 2 year
