I would be pretty surprised if they introduced short selling. There's no question that a good chunk of Robinhood's user base are novice investors. Those that do not understand short selling may land themselves into a lot of a hot water. There may be measures RH could take to prevent novice users from dangerous short selling plays. I'd be curious to see how they introduce it.

Generally, a start up founder should be more interested in growing the company's (his) equity as opposed to taking a paycheck. The paycheck should be for living expenses, IMHO.

I honestly believe it's the quick decrease in speed by drivers that causes non-accident traffic jams during rush hour.

Don't hit the brakes before merging and when someone merges in front of you, you should have kept enough space so you do not need to hit the brakes. Really, I think traffic would move much smoother if drivers leave at minimum 2 car lengths of open space between the vehicles in front of them and only hit the brakes on the highway when it is absolutely necessary.

If all the cars are put to a halt because of quick and hard braking cars ahead of them, its going to cause a chain reaction that is way more time consuming to drivers behind you than the author's "2 seconds slower to destination" factor due to a merge in front of you.

An insurance giant will attempt to purchase Automatic. That's my guess.
