Maybe a problem a few years ago, but certainly not in this kind of environment. Congrats to all the recipients.

Very hesitant to write code for this, given the risks of handling customer payment info, security issues, etc. Would definitely much prefer some sort of off-the-shelf solution, and…

I am thinking about a project where users could rent items (e.g. expensive electronics or watches) for limited time for a relatively low cost, but would agree to be charged for the…

It's interesting that they chose to focus on undergrad business students rather than MBAs. I would guess that undergrad biz majors are going to be more flexible about career option…

watch out for those pesky time zones!

Maybe I read this too quickly, but the vast majority of people you'd want to lend this kind of money to are either (a) not going to want to borrow money at 20% interest, or (b) hav…

The main reason for this major change is that even in the presence of information-sharing provisions of treaties, Switzerland refused to provide any information on most account hol…

1) Qualified dividends are taxed at long-term capital gains rates. At the moment there is no differential. 2) There is no economic difference in retaining the earnings because alth…

That's pretty impressive. I will check out your site some more.

congratulations on the new job!

blah blah blah. More meta-blather.

What is to stop people from ripping articles from wikipedia and posting them en masse to earn adsense revenue?

I would also add that one of the worst aspects of this post is that it encourages people to bug/annoy other people to pay you for things in awkward contexts.

blah blah blah. this is barely a step up from the meta-blogging about blogging about blogging that gets posted every day. although very good writers, I'm getting sort of sick of th…

I'm not sure what the point of that blog post is, or if it even has any coherent thesis.

Thoroughly enjoyed this post, especially since I remember a lot of these events as they happened. I was peripherally involved in the startup also for a good amount of time, and abs…

Less significant than it sounds (and certainly the title of the blog post is sort of linkbaity), but an encouraging sign nonetheless.

enjoyable. it's nice that we've gotten to the point where each of those possible uses is either so trivial that no one wants it (buying concert tickets from an ATM), or costs <$100…

Anyone who has tried to start a company in most other countries (where starting a company can take months and thousands of dollars in fees or even bribes) would never write somethi…

Agreed, especially when they provide the free shuttle. The author of the blog post does not seem to have a clue.

I don't know about you, but i've gotten this advice tens of times, at least.
