You mean like SF where there’s no looting?

Nice newspapers. They also thought Hunter’s laptop was fake

Lol

> uncomfortable living in a very red state

You’d miss the daily car break-ins and robberies?

The whole story is fake

Apparently this was an urban legend. Good movie idea but not accurate

If you see a headline like this you know we’re not close at all

I wish SF voters learned at the same rate

The broader trend is SF

SF crime statistics logic: if they knew each other then it didn’t happen.

No, just that SF is full of crime.

Terrible idea

To you. He’s not you.

> lithium can be recycled

It can’t. This is an extremely energy intensive process that produces toxic waste products.

It’s a fantasy.

I assume you don’t live near a lithium mine

Do you know that after your lithium battery degrades, it’s toxic waste?

Quitting coal mining in exchange for lithium mining? That’s like saying an addict is healthy because he quit heroin in exchange for being hooked on fentanyl.

Sorry but that’s not new

> but unless you're doing something about it

Explaining that SF is not safe is actually doing something. Because believe it or not, many people still think this violence and crime is no big deal.

Would have to agree

I want it tied to a good business. I’d tie my wealth to Google (when they were the same age as Uber), whether I’m the CEO there or not. It doesn’t matter because it’s a great business. If Travis is selling then he agrees it’s a bad business.

That’s the problem with Slack — too easy to switch to equivalent or superior alternatives. I suspect this issue will continue to weigh on their stock price.

Simulate yes. But not understand.

Sure but then a computer doesn’t understand its own simulation so it’s apples and oranges

So it can only succeed if he’s steering it? Doesn’t sound like a good business

If Uber can only succeed with him in charge, and nobody else, then it’s not a very good let alone realistic business is it?

Not really. He already has enough money to live for a million lifetimes in luxury. There would be no reason to diversify at this point, unless of course he thinks Uber is doomed.

You can’t diversify radically from your own company and at the same time tell investors it’s the future and it’s going to be trillion dollar business etc. If he really believed that he wouldn’t diversify. Look at Larry Ellison or the Google founders if you want examples of someone who believes financially in their stakes in their own companies.

It will likely become the next WeWork

If the Human Brain Were So Simple That We Could Understand It, We Would Be So Simple That We Couldn’t
