    I mean 1-2 years after residency. Most people taking on debt for medical school don't really see it as a huge risk, it's basically a guaranteed investment. The big downside of medi…

    Perhaps I was too dismissive, I wish them the best of luck. Maybe it's actually that delicious. I'm just surprised to see another food company pop up, it's kind of like the latex m…

    Think of it not as a shake up, but as a wealth transfer from investors to the proletariat. It's like how Uber has been giving me $3 rides while it posts losses 1/3 of revenue. I sh…

    Hmm I don't think it's that much of a headache to have some PIN code provided to pilots as an additional measure. These planes aren't cheap, even a small personal jet is in the low…

    WeWork is just a gamble on real estate. There are probably instruments with very similar upside and risk as WeWork. VCs, probably not familiar with the world of real estate, aren't…

    Soil rights are not a basic human right... In many countries it is nearly impossible to get citizenship without having citizen parents. I'm not sure why you would want to give the …
