Really Really good post. Look forward to the next post.

I think it because it seen as "information" not "content".

I think this article clears up some of the confusion here http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-03-17/tax-holiday-for-1-t... money quote "As is often the case in Washington, the scand…

It might but I dont see how M&A helps the general public.You could make a argument that they have a negative effect actually.

The arguement for the holiday the last time was "job creation" which didnt really bear fruit. Dont think it will happen again unless it is part of a larger tax reform bill.

I might be off base here but I think this idea "what we would we do if money wasn't an issue” is subconsciously the reason why shows like the walking dead and to a lesser degree fa…

I read an article a while back about the founders not being on the same page might explain the pivot

One article I read that always stuck with me was Peter thiel recalling the day Mark Zuckerberg turned down yahoos 1 billion dollar acquistion offer . Thiel said he remembered sayin…

I might be in the minority here but I think snapchat is totally worth 3 billion. And the article says they have a company interested in a round valuing them at 4 billion . If Insta…

The idea that they have no path to revenue I think is become a common theme but not entirely true.

They already got that from their last round. Both founders took 10 million of the table just so they wouldnt be seduced by a offer like this.

As an infrequent Pinterest user I see the value in it. The service in my opinion has the chance to become huge in the online e-commerce referral/purchase space. I can see your trai…

I understand urge for anonymity in these stories but I think it would be really helpful If the names of these accelerators where disclosed so people don’t fall into the same situat…

Couldnt agree more with this post and love the idea. Im working on a startup right now and have been debating whether to post it on HN glad to see some people feeling what I was fe…
