lol, This is such a bizarre hill to die. There is no evidence in this article of them saying this for any reason other than the staff and business. Could you imagine arguing that restaurants should let patrons who spit on their staff continue to eat there? I dont see what the problem.

What? If you make income on ip you get taxed. This point is strange.

Hah! Everything is a ponzi scheme while in growth mode in the venture space if it's not profitable. There is most certainly a universe where the We brand isnt stained by greed, goes pubic, loses 15% early, but survives long enough to innovate survival.

The fault was that they killed the big story with Neumanns greed and it cratered confidence of the public markets and press.

Not really. It's a thesis that if you own the top dogs in the most important consumer growth verticals that you will get both economies of scale and own sector growth. He might end up being very wrong, but it's not really more than that.

Good movie though.

Jefferson was staunch about the idea that the constitution should be rewritten every 19 years, so this idea of Originalism is conservatism draped in rhetorical clothing.

Founder intention is absolutely unknowable and it's a ridiculous argument.

Also LA too

It would literally be a day. They pass the legislation and they would stop.

Ive long said that a good enough/affordable sex robot is more dangerous to the western civilization than literally any weapon of mass destruction.

The statement is self defeating. Absolute power is playing far less "a game" for the continuted hold of power than is elected. You're right that people generally do whatever it is they think they can get away with, but simply put a king doesnt asnwer to anyone so he is more likely to act in self interest than someone who needs to please others.

Your using logic to answer a question that is normally one of emotion.

A single non elected ruler is going to make decisions on whim not process. As long as there is one unchecked person, you can basically be assured that unpredictability will be the norm.

Who are you talking to?

Its much simpler than that. Decision making at a big company is layered. Anti-trust considerations is about as C-suite a concern as I can possibly think about. Operational leadership even VP is singing for their supper on a project by project basis (to gain status and move up the company ladder). So you get these things.

It's almost certainly a reflection of a culture who's motto was/maybe still is "move fast and break stuff." I think the idea of existential consequences for actions is relatively new one for FB (and to a lesser extent Google) and your seeing a company not move fast enough and a CEO who is probably a little bit underarmed when it comes to really understanding the stakes of certain types of public perception.

Yea, but the point is that its not necessarily causal. It would be like looking at people who died of cancer and determining weight-loss as one the best correlated culprits to ID it. It would probably catch a ton of people who were really sick, but it seems to ignore some of the deeper casualties.

The white thing certainly is problematic culturally, but it's not REALLY the problem its more of a symptom of previous power choosing future power.
