I don't know, I'm of the opinion there is no true substitute other than jumping ship to a better learning environment. I think as long as you're cognizant of it, maybe that time co…

I didn't see anyone mention the rationale. Here it is: "Twitter was acquired by X Corp both to ensure freedom of speech and as an accelerant for X, the everything app. This is not …

What could've been done differently with a "competent" CFO?

Say it is an assault. Some guy / lady yelled at you for 10 seconds aggressively. Are you now going to call the cops / file a police report? I think a majority of people would just …

Lead Detective's Police Report: Case closed, mugging. Occam's razor.

People who are downvoting this... care to justify your point of view? Genuinely curious.
