This reminds me of the spite house located in Alexandria, VA. It was build in the 1800s in order to prevent loiterers and wagons from passing through.

I'm not totally sure what 'this' is referencing, but if its the feeling that there are too many IPOs -- I see it as a good thing!
It's so hard to find investments where a company hasn't hit their biggest growth period yet. It feels like you need to be in some inner circle of investors to get in on some of that action.
I probably wouldn't invest in Casper, but I hope the number of IPOs keeps increasing!

It's funny, people often compare Tesla (or electric cars in general) to the transition to iPhones from our flip phones and the complaints are the exact same: "I would prefer tactile controls"

I have been driving my model 3 for a year now and I don't think I can go back to a gas car, a car that doesn't receive OTA updates, or a car that doesn't have a driving assistant similar to Autopilot.
I'm happy that a new car company is challenging the rest of the auto industry on what a car should be and forcing them to drastically improve their products rather than incremental changes every year. Now we are seeing new car companies pop up ( Rivian ) that are following Tesla's footsteps. It is all very exciting to me.
