    >"More than likely it will be neutral or will turn a slight profit." Based on what exactly, just your opinion? Obviously you know nothing about the grocery business which is a noto…

    Not at all. A big thrust of the article is about falling behind in AI adoption. See the first 3 paragraphs below the heading "Innovation and Adoption." Specifically: >"Although the…

    As I pointed out elsewhere the 200 person company is not accurate. The OP is quoting something listed as "peak" on Linkedin without even providing a reference. And for some reason …

    FB, Linkedin, Pinterest as well. All of these walled gardens are "built on the shoulder of giants", whose work pioneered the open internet. Further, what isn't silos seems to be co…

    Was this Tencent's decision then since they own Riot? Tencent seems to be facing some headwinds. See: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/12/22/tencent-netease-shares-plumm...

    Sure but you have to actually establish something first to pivot from. Declaring some half-baked idea and then not executing and then replacing that idea with some new half-baked i…

    I'm baffled by this figure as well. I've had a couple of jobs at startups that used Carta to manage employee options and the only thing they seemed to do was to send out an email e…

    At some point in the last decade or so HR at many tech companies have decided to rebrand themselves at "People Operations." And CPO as a title is the logical conclusion of this non…
