"The same people that would reject you for having bad grammar are effectively racists." Now, how exactly did you arrive at this conclusion? This just might be one of the most, if not the most, ridiculous statements I've…
I don't think any business that achieves that sort of valuation should be considered a "startup".
It'll be worth even more in the coming years, which is not hard to fathom when you look at Uber as a logistics company rather than a taxi-replacement.
Great point!

Salves were usually forced against their will to do arduous tasks, which I'm sure none of them quite enjoyed nor voluntarily signed up for. I understand that some employers may treat their workers poorly (and some may…
This is exciting news - great work! Look forward to seeing more smart people collaborate around speech technology in the coming years.
And I believe there is also a huge difference between someone signing up for your product and someone actively using it after signing up. In my experience, I found that many people will sign up for a product out of…
Very interesting merger of social and e-commerce here. I'd expect other players in the space to follow suit, or at least discover new ways to engage their clientele via social channels.
I would not be surprised if they scoop up and acquire Postmates in the next 12-18 months.
Who are you currently for your telecom services? I'm always surprised about the amount of money businesses spend on their phone system.
Seems like people are just looking for any and everything to be offended by these days.
Agreed. The shift towards a more affordable machine that can meet the most basic productivity needs will attract businesses, especially since we now live in world with more mobile workforces.Bloated OS's are a thing of…
Wow, didn't have a clue that their terrible ads had already begun targeting Chromebooks. Seriously, someone over there really need to find a better way of trying to separate from the competition.
While I don't have any interest in shifting to Chrome OS entirely, I do think Google has made quite a leap in their recent Chromebook offerings. I, for one, was one of the original pundits that lambasted the Chromebook…
Yeah, it appears to me that the author sole purpose was to discredit the currency more out of bitterness more than actual valid data.
Even the approach of sending cold emails may not be as effective, since plenty of restaurants still don't leverage basic tools available for communication and connection, including the internet. As Yiggy said, try…
Not only mail, but the native cal app has become unbearable, too! Used to be one of my favorite applications until about snow leopard.
Unfortunately, this is the shared reality of many in the Valley. And that's not to say you should feel any less or more guilty than others faced with this dilemma. The challenges that exist with developing products for…
Agreed -- the fallacy pushed out into society that higher education is the only path to success is absolutely absurd. Even moderate domain expertise in most fields will trump the copious amount of useless information…
I don't think that is the point being made. The point is that there's been a lack of transparency on Google's behalf, and a lot of users, like myself, have grown tired of it.
But I don't understand why Google refuses to just offer this as a stand alone product for those of us who actually do enjoy this service, ya know.
Is it me or has this theme of Silicon Valley's innovation, or lack thereof, become played out? Like, it's become sort of the popular thing to do as of late, and it is such bullshit. Pundits are so quick to criticize the…
I've experienced this far too often in the past few months, it's starting to become a bit unbearable. Just not sure why Uber continues to onboard drivers who seem incompetent and have no sense of direction. It'd be nice…
Ever heard of Pinterest? They definitely fall into that category of companies with little to no revenue, but have a massive valuation. Here's the thing: While users may not be paying with their dollars just yet, almost…
