I'll second my name-twin's sentiments and add: It's fantastic to see a dividend based model being introduced into early round VC fundraising. It's an alternative to liquidity and s…

The large problem, that's becoming larger, is that a good portion of a representative audience no longer has land line phones, and refuses to answer phones in general. This type of…

How do you manage official communications internally? Announcements, HR, etc?

Also know in NWS speak as a thermoshack.

This would be similar to this acquisition IMO: http://www.macworld.com/article/2083997/apple-acquires-snapp...

That is the most offensive representation of poutine I've ever seen.

Adding to Sam's post I'd like to see employees made aware about tools like 83(b) elections to decrease their tax liability.

Meh. I saw a guy break the sound barrier just by falling.

It's interesting to me that Facebook is getting called out on this when Twitter does the exact same thing. I know a few folks with +1M Twitter followers that have stopped using the…

I'm surprised the redirect loop can even happen. Seems malicious. Another example: http://www.usatoday.com

FYI: Q1 2012 = 14 weeks Q1 2013 = 13 weeks Q1 2012 profit/week = $0.93B Q1 2013 profit/week = $1.00B

It's funny. Without Twitter and Facebook to distribute Instagram's content they would have never been able to grow to such a size so quickly. Now that they've reached this large cr…

This is a great write-up. I love seeing your thought process on how you tackled the project. The bonus playback of realtime results and the not preloading county data are two very …
