    +1, this place has (mostly) managed to retain what made it special despite becoming more mainstream due the popularity of the SWE career in the last decade.

    Never thought I'd see a nymph on a VC website.

    IANAL but I'd assume this doesn't apply to them.

    I don't think it's comparable to Theranos. He took over a company w/a heavily (but still in a pre launch) product in its "beta" phase and was chosen for an obvious reason (get the …

    I agree, it's strange to axe the type of person they'd need to rollout the tech, unless the tech itself just isn't going to be ready soon at all vs. giving him a different role? I …

    Not saying it ought not to be that way, but the EU isn't known for their bureaucratic efficiency.

    Most people have bandwidth caps AT HOME w/landlines. Large swathes of the country don't have 4G. Is 4K content on our phones really going to matter?

    Perhaps... We could increase the amount of seats at colleges instead?

    Not to be crass... but how about multiple the fine by 10 if one believes it's not punitive enough?

    An ethnically homogenous area doesn't always imply it's a ghetto though?

    "beat"? Is there a competition to become the most Orwellian state before the other?

    Usually those are vague enough to where they can axe you for nearly anything no?

    It's not like said contractors get paid more anywhere else? While the situation those folks from the article in is horrible, Facebook isn't a charity.

    We still have 3 more years of the current administration, that's an eternity (figuratively) in politics. Predicting who will be a legitimate contender at this point is a fool's err…

    Call me a cynic, but I get the feeling this IPO is more of an early investor/founder cash out?

    Is being a "WOW killer" worth it anymore? Activision doesn't even release the subscription numbers anymore (most likely because they've fallen so much since WotLK).

    I know SC initial funding is unprecedented, but is taking out what amounts to a line of credit really that uncommon? It doesn't necessarily mean the initial 150M has dried up -> th…

    Perhaps the value is the fact a central bank can't obliterate the value of the currency based on a whim, using a bunch of esoteric economic logic to justify such policies?

    There was a financial incentive to look the other way. That doesn't exist in this case.

    There's also no reason you can't have borders indefinitely. Open borders have the draw backs of depressing wages. In an era where income-inequality is one of the top issues in the …

    Not exactly a surprise, if the polls were wrong this time, they'd have needed to be off by nearly ~15 points in both directions. This is the first big win neo-liberalism has had in…
