Uber is not in real trouble, most people that use Uber don't know it is going on or don't even care

I lost all respect for Cloudflare

can anyone give a comparable to how much Facebook/Google/Twitter spend on cloud infrastructure per user per year? these numbers are harder to find as they build their own datacenters/staff them/etc.

except they won't, Lyft is a lot smaller then Uber, Uber is around the world, Lyft is in one country and Lyft is starting global expansion this year which will increase losses

very odd

company in reference https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trustly

the data they have is not detailed enough though has been the criticism

except Tesla has not proved their current approach can get them to level 5 in any real way other then some handwaving, your comparing different things and the majority of value that will be created hasn't been won by anyone yet

Medium still has years of runway...

he was a GP at a top 3 VC firm in the world (Benchmark) recently and is an advisor to Uber and a lot of other companies...

except they are already running at a huge loss and they will be stuck in one city forever? plus they came in so late that funding is harder to find as a lot of investors have already made bets in their competitors

Uber will long outlast Juno, Juno won't be able to finding funding long enough and will go under

"I'm more surprised why Bloomberg makes such a big deal out of it."

this is a pretty bad hit piece from Bloomberg, they should be ashamed

Gitlab is slower then Github

Mobx reminds me of Ember and bringing the Ember paradigm to react folks

I call BS, how does A16Z piss google off in this scenario, more money for Magic Leap the better, I doubt GV or GC even saw the deal

Opendoor is already doing agentless open houses with access codes (smart locks) and cameras throughout the house where people can visit whenever they want without calling ahead, not that difficult

"and as it stands now it's worse than its competition"

except it isn't, the information article is one person's opinion and other people that have used the production device have said differently

seems like the majority of money isn't going to the engineers but other outstanding expenses, they are just taking a salaried job at Fitbit

or she go could extreme, cut down to 50 employees (250k total comp per person) get down to a 20 mil a year burn rate which would give her 20 years or she could go even more extreme and be more or less set for life

1x is standard, 2x isn't, I doubt Giphy did more then 1x, The majority of snapchat's financing rounds are actually common stock with only the early investors getting preferred stock and 1x liquidation preference

what's overlooked is this is bad for consumers who are sports fans, if Fox/CBS/ESPN/NBC cut back spending for sports rights and get less games, you will be at the mercy of the sports leagues online services to watch content who will have all the pricing power and will force you into season passes, this is naive to think it will just affect ESPN and not the other networks, content will be getting significantly more expensive in the future across sports/television shows

GV isn't an investor in Magic Leap, Google the company is (Sundar Pichai Google's CEO took a board seat)

doubt he actually cancels it and changes his mind next week, this was more spur of the moment and his investors calmed him down?, way too much attention being brought to it

they have incentives to not license it only to themselves or they will see huge drop in viewers across all assets, not that worried

if Tesla doesn't need LIDAR for level 4, I am skeptical of the "importance" of it made by the media

the majority of revenue will come from tesla network, it will far eclipse potential revenue from fleet sales, this isn't that controversial what tesla is doing and is what every car company will do.

Revenue from car sales will go down as more and more people use fleet services and car companies will make the majority of revenue from autonomous ride sharing networks, why let some competitor use your cars/software without having to do any of the difficult work themselves, creating a low barrier to entry is a losing strategy if your doing all the work

if they can't do the proper due diligence then they shouldn't be investing other people's money

the facts on the ground don't support your theory, Reid is one of the people helping fund OpenAI (Sam is one of the founders)

more that he is pissed that the YC Continuity fund is starting to compete with him on deals at Greylock which the article alluded to that it's a threat to other VC's

we will see a few more acquisitions play out in this space over the next year or so but I do believe Google will have a hard time acquiring the companies in the space as tons of people are jumping ship and some are even starting their own self driving startups with prolly no intention of going back to google like Otto
