Are they still "Silicon Valley firms" when the employees are spread out around the country, and world, or can we finally retire this tedious, self-perpetuating myth of the elite workers of the golden coasts of California and New Y

Pasco, just north of Tampa Bay, was an armpit for the last 50 years and now is a highly desirable area with many enclaves of new homes in the former pasture land. This sort of automated targeting is gross, but unsurprising, especially in a

Comparing child rape and murder to eating a dead chicken requires an impressive level of mental gymnastics.

Artificial chicken stuffed with soy and other fillers can't be long term indistinguishable to your body. I wish you lasting health, but fear you are suggesting we all gamble on the oversight and benevolence of the food industry by eati

The world is not going to go vegan. Humans eat meat. No greenhouse argument will ever change this. This is worthwhile research, as is cultured meat and other options. Evolving the tech of raising and cultivating animal protein to eat is imp

I'm a Tesla fan and love "electro-mods" - classics outfitted with battery packs - but this seems premature to me. There is 100 years of knowledge of these engines and moving to battery tech does not require quitting ICE entir

I'd be curious if any of the Shopify app devs in this thread have an opinion on how they handle customer data. As a Shopify store owner, I was aghast how common it was on the platform to require allowing third party apps entirely too m

Trust. Any experienced marketer will tell you that is the most difficult part of securing a transaction. Whether Android users and fans agree or not, the purchase behavior on iOS vs Android mirrors any other comparison of luxury or near-lux

As a Floridian, I am suspicious of anything co-sponsored by Rubio and Scott and look forward to reading how they and the rest of our fine state’s Congressional clown car profited from this bill.

Risk of disease spread. Many outbreaks (mad cow, etc) were larger problems than they should have been because cattle from various farms had been mixed. It also complicates source tracing for any other problem - bad feed, importing rules, et

Perhaps, but buy (including registration, 45 forms in triplicate, insurance, etc) and return with a week is difficult to do in practice. You are also at the mercy of the seller to accept the return, not argue the tires were used, the car wa

My input as a former technologist turned marketing guy over the years - where is a decent SSG (perhaps like Zola) with page building drag and drop tools like a Wix or a Squarespace? I'd love to move our site off of Wix - and have full

No one will miss dealers and that is entirely the fault of dealerships. An interesting business opportunity in their wake is to find a way to profit from a multi-brand test drive center. I'd love to drive 5 brands against each other -

Interesting analysis, but I think you are discounting the number of people in each of these groups. Percentage basis, yes, the rich and poor will have more children. But both groups are not the 80% of the middle (using your 10% cutoffs on e

I think it has been figured out, it is just heavily lobbied against. In general, you have to flip normal. Every time I get my Butcherbox pasture raised beef out of the freezer, I'm aggravated they have to print "pasture raised&quo

They'll keep coming after meat eating with every angle - health, ecology, economics, emotional appeals - but humans can live a long, healthy life with meat in their diet. That doesn't mean industrial burgers daily or portions that

I'm not sure this is a real problem. If you gave a Christie's rep $10M for a modern art piece, and gave them another $1M cash and said "this is off the books" I'm sure they could write down the sale was really only

Is your contract on the blockchain? At what address can it be verified? If I buy it and trade it, can you verify or receive a royalty? That’s the token part.

M-Pesa is very important, society changing financial app/system that did not need iPhone or Android to be dominant. It was built on SMS and why it could achieve such market share. Don't give smartphones credit for putting interfac

Love VW, smog scandals aside, but is silly to mention the ID.4 and the Beetle together. The latter is arguably the most important car ever made and had a multi-decade run as such. The other may be a decent selling electric, and is certainly

I'm not a military expert, but just as a civilian tired of seeing my taxes wasted, doesn't the US military need to be completely reimagined anyway? Who is it built to defend against? As an example - the flyover at Super Bowl 55. T

You are comparing touchscreen mobile phones with a technology delving into what both gold / hard value stores AND cash do for society. That is not a typical technology adoption cycle. I’m not an extremist to say Bitcoin will eat the wo

This is really short sighted thinking. The web had no "killer app" in the first 10+ years. It was obscure technology with thousands of naysayers laughing at us "web nerds" because we thought it would change everything. C

I would explore small starter plans - a couple of published charts / stories per month - or even one per month. IMHO, a lot of marketers like myself are professional story tellers and use data extensively. We'd love your product,

Cool bit of audio mixing. I'd appreciate "IMissLiveSports" personally, and "IMissLiveMusic" that could played in the background of any other music would be fun, too.
