Inverted yield curve has predicted 10 of the last 3 recessions
It seems like that would be a lot of work to maintain. Like as soon as companies start updating stuff (funding rounds, new products etc) your information about them becomes useless.
If you made your money on bay area unicorns, I think its your responsibility to keep reinvesting a portion of it in high growth startups.

If this becomes a trend the bubble will surely burst. For this reason I think we should publicly shame him into keeping the doors on his VC open, or doing something else to contribute to the ecosystem, rather than using all of his money on zero sum political games.

Nobody said the transition would be easy, and nobody said what we have now is the gig economy... The gig economy we were promised is made up of decentralized enterprises built on protocols like ethereum, not market companies.

Oort - the cloud, in space.

We are building an orbital communications network and linux based satellite operating system that lets you program your small sat in widely used programming languages, and gives you access to unprecedented, low latency compute and storage on orbit, and enables uninterrupted connectivity to the ground.
