All these cries about democracy, and I haven't seen any single core structural change. Even the most hated country on HackerNews, Hungary, whose leader got the emergency power gave it back. Then we have Andrew Cuomo, who still has way

Dirty? This is not at all dirty. Ben (Shapiro), to much of my dislike, has really good content that some people like and others want to promote it. The whole sharing stuff is totally legal, and within the rules. Also, if FB is allowing such

Facebook isn't hedging any bets, it's just not giving into the mob like behavior by the advertisers. Facebook knows that the advertisement dollars were anyways not going to be coming to FB due to the recession, and if they take a

The one thing I have noticed about the PIA air crash is the effort some people have put into trying to explain the crash. Some of them have simulated the whole trip! It's quite depressing, especially since the errors are quite bizzare

umm, people who move millions of dollars are quite sophisticated. I am sure the retail investors like me don't dissect the report, but we hardly move the market. Institutional investors aren't as sloppy as me.

I don't regret, and I did leave the big tech after a few years to build another company with some of my colleagues that I met. Since I started the company quite early in my career (about 12 months out of college), I think building the

I posted in other comment, if I tell you that X restaurant sucks because they have rats everywhere, and you go to that restaurant and actually see the rats and rate it as 1 star on Yelp, are those not authentic users? Who counts as authenti

This is a really good case for network effects. If you go through the reviews, a lot of people are complaining that they are not getting any "views" for their content. As more and more people are bombing the reviews, uninstalling,
