    OpenAI just advertises that they’ll make you pay later and raises $100B+ on having “900M+ users”

    That sounds smart but they still raise more money because they “have 900 million users”

    Hotseat was more common back then I think with turn-based games

    My favorite game of all time. I still have the CD-ROM even though I don't have any CD-ROM drives :)

    Early buyers of the original iPhone got money back like six months later when the price was cut. I believe around $200

    Surprised to see no mentions of Guild Wars 2 among all the discussion about WoW and FFXIV I think in many ways Guild Wars kept the innovation going better than World of Warcraft. T…

    Taylor Swift lost the rights to her music to her earlier label in a bitter dispute and ended to re-recording the songs to gain control of them

    Comcast, AT&T, the DMV… I can think of a lot of businesses that struggle with customer service

    Literally use it for 5 minutes and you’ll understand. 1. Excellent watch list functionality including showing pre-market change separately from regular hours change. 2. Automatic a…

    Better to check in on Google Maps rather than Foursquare so you keep your history when the small companies pivot away or abandon the service. It is bizarre to me that Foursquare di…

    I’d be surprised if they touch the WoW cash cow and make it free with Game Pass. It would be a bold move

    WeBull has the best mobile app hands down. Robinhood is the “simplest” I guess but is much less useful

    I use ACH and Venmo all the time for no fees. Do you mean the tiny electricity fee that they pay on my behalf of maybe $0.01? Sure seems like a great deal compared to the multiple …

    I thinks it’s safe to conclude not many. One of the more promising ones seemed to be EOS and even that went nowhere.

    Yes Charlie Lee even said after selling that people should be careful investing in Litecoin at those high prices which caused a major crash in the price. It still amazes me he was …

    It’s a promotion run by Airbnb. Not sure why this post is on the front page as it’s clearly not a scam. They’ve run similar promotions in the past and the poster simply didn’t get …

    The Bay Area is a dense region with earthquakes and it’s share of NIMBYs which complicates planning but they’re still opening four new stations next year as part of the Central Sub…

    Well let’s see I spent the last five months in Lisbon, Barcelona, Paris, London, and Zagreb. Now I’m in Bangkok. So your assumption that I’ve never been overseas is drastically inc…

    You’re saying NYC has the worst subway? If so, you’re seriously taking it for granted. It’s the only subway I’m aware of with two sets of tracks so it can run 24 hours even while m…

    Yes 100%. I’m not familiar with Washington state specifically but if you Google “induced demand” you’ll see why building more lanes and repaving them doesn’t really solve the probl…

    They said the same thing about Tesla and it’s been working out quite well for them. I definitely favor the theory that it’s a bubble but even if it’s true “the market can remain ir…
