Honestly...true. Even Rapportive (same founder) effectively died post acquisition by linkedin, no?

And, you could reorder the emails inside your inbox!

My history with email clients being acquired is not encouraging. The history is they are effectively abandoned and/or shut down on the order of weeks and months not years. See Dropbox/Mailbox.

This. Or, the unknowable lost opportunities that never materialized. How many relationships never formed, how many business never created, etc is unmeasurable but absolutely real and the impact from those lost opportunities will be felt in some way shape and form...

Treated equally in a food ordering service? Show me where it says “restaurant owned by a black person” in the Uber app allowing people to discriminate when ordering food.

Seems like Uber is thinks black businesses are not capable of competing in a free market without a handout. Based on your definition, it is explicit racism.

Why do you assume only impact is on white restaurant owners?what about Asian, Mexican, Iranian, etc restaurant owners who are being charged a fee for delivery based only on their skin color?

Expect class action suits to follow. What if you are losing business as a restaurant because your competitors get free delivery?

Quick - lock it down. Double unemployment payments. Wait it out in your basement with the light out.

Stated another way, the equity premium over a 10% treasury rate would make VC investment for LPs much much less attractive as an asset class.

This is a joke, right?

Have you ever visited? Talked to locals? You might be surprised how friendly people are IRL.

Somehow, this impacts Doc Rivers and the Clips more than 5x anyone else in the league.

If you are serious, this might be the scariest comment I have ever read on HN.

OP stated: Unless you're already making that much, how does a higher marginal tax rate on income over $500k affect you at all?

So, if you want to make that much some day, then it would affect you when you do.

Further - raising rates on high income earners makes it more likely for others to make more? That seems dubious.

because people don't vote purely for self interest. Maybe you are aspirational and want to earn that much some day. Maybe you believe it best for government to be less a part of daily life than more. Maybe you think higher rates will cause successful people to look for lower rate countries to take their talents. Or maybe, you think it is morally wrong for people to vote to grab money lawfully earned from others just because they can.

Powerpoint is by far the most important piece of software in the military...used in planning for literally every mission from where to build latrines to mission planning for seal teams. Do you think Microsoft employees should strike over the use of Powerpoint?

Atlanta resident. Commutes are longer by a factor of 2 if not more. A co-workers commute from Roswell to Cumberland that did take 25 minutes is over an hour since the bridge fell. And, that commute doesn't go anywhere near the bridge.

Additionally, many schools are on spring break this week further reducing traffic.

While it might not be total gridlock, the traffic is being impacted significantly and will continue to be.
