I didn't know Pieter but contributed to CZMQ which was a excellent example of how C can be well written. ZMQ was like having lego blocks for me had so much fun playing with it, he is a profound thinker.

Repeat of the DotCom bubble, a few startups make it big then everyone and their aunt tries to emulate it with slight variations or solutions to a problems that don't exist. This app bubble is very pregnant and about to deliver somethin

Look at every notable tech company ever, do you see many black people involved in the founding? Why is that?

I used Clojure for an small application last year and once I got up and running (after watching many Rich's excellent videos and reading up) I got a glimpse of how powerful bottom up functional programming could be, a refreshing change

Reciprocation will be more likely if the person making the advance is more attractive relative to target of the advance. I'm sure there is a mathematical formula for this.

So it's not the act that's harassment, it's the relative level of attractiveness of the person committing the act. Interesting.

A lot of time sexual harassment == someone i'm not attracted to flirting with me. If it was a 6 foot handsome guy then it would be highlight of the week.

Looking at someone is harassment now? I must have harassed hundreds of women then, What about thinking about them?

So what are you supposed to do if you are attracted to someone at work, never make a move? Women need to be more forgiving and take it as a compliment, unless someone continues after a clear rejection (which is the definition of harassment)

But an investment bank alone can still be too big to fail, it's about the contagion effect caused by the banks being deeply intertwined with each other.

I don't think this is the correct approach, it's not the size of the company that is the problem. In fact large companies (not monopolies) can produce/offer services/products that smaller companies can't due to the
