Glad to see ancient Iranian culture featured here. People in the west have a lot of misconceptions about Iran. Persian culture is thousands of years old.

I bought into Bari Weiss' theory and the narrative she is making a lot of money from the substack and alternate journalism. I started consuming a lot of substack content; after a few months, I realized most of the substack content I go

I know in Twitter everyone is inflammatory, however a CEO should exercise restraint and show leadership, and hold judgement until facts are clear, in this case he clearly failed.

I concur! He should apologize.

I am not saying PG is Shakespeare, PG is good in his field of writing, i.e. giving random(but useful) advice to wannabe founders who listen.

I didn't go to YC. My impression of YC is from news articles and hacker news. I believe that YC is good only if it helps you raise money. Their advice is not worth it because advice is free on YouTube. Let's take PG; he often give

The article is too long. Is the headline a clickbait or is Stanford doing something against its own students?

Maybe his ego got hurt at Meta. Why would you publicly bash your previous employer. Isn’t staying quiet the right thing to do?

Startup probably worked on Carmack’s request because they were afraid he will post a negative review or give negative review about the startup to his friends. A startup can’t afford to piss off a person like John Carmack, they might go out

I am not a lifer, but I know many people who are lifers. I switched job too many times, my stress is more than my lifer friends. Being a lifer is not too bad, if you want peace and stability.

This opinion is offensive. India is a functioning democracy. Your claim is that the people who vote are lower caste and upper caste won’t vote hence democracy is invalid. Are you suggesting democracy is only valid if upper caste people vote

There is another possibility, he doesn’t actually own those properties. He invested in an LLC that owns those properties. Many passive real estate investors claim they own the property. I have a few friends who are into passive real estate

WSJ is reporting some advertisers are planning to leave if Trump is re-instated.

Also big advertisers can stop spending because the people who make decisions on ad money spend ideologically disagree with Musk moderation policy. The decision makers are not robots, they have biases too.

Groups can force advertisers to leave the platform. YouTube doesn’t monetize content that is not palatable to advertisers. Similarly whole of Twitter can become unpalatable if problematic speech is not moderated. E.g. Musk said in the past

Elon Musk wants to set the bird free. But is the bird going to be free? Even free speech people don’t like speech that is critical of their beliefs, the pressure on Elon Musk to widen the definition of hate speech will be significant. The p

I agree Musk is self-serving. However, this time the acquisition will go through, Techmeme is leading with Musk. I believe it is an important news story, and folks here will have a lot of things to say about it.

I don’t understand why engineers in this forum argue against own interest. Too much efficiency is bad for workers, you want successful companies like Google and Apple invest in projects which might have a high chance of failure. At a minim

I said Figma is not worth 20 billion as a standalone company. It might be worth 20 billion to Adobe. Adobe can do to Figma what Facebook did to Instagram, Facebook took a relatively small startup Instagram and made it into a global juggerna

The thing about Adobe is that their products are used by common people and professionals. I edit 10 of my personal photos a year, still I have an Adobe subscription which includes Photoshop and Lightroom. Had Figma been part of the Adobe Su
