All these cries about democracy, and I haven't seen any single core structural change. Even the most hated country on HackerNews, Hungary, whose leader got the emergency power gave…

I don't think there is any working evidence that Facebook has helped changing minds to elect a world leader. For all the blame Trump gets, Obama was the first leader to use FB for …

I don't regret, and I did leave the big tech after a few years to build another company with some of my colleagues that I met. Since I started the company quite early in my career …
