The trio of the shows: Breaking Bad, Mad Men, and The Walking Dead — are either on their finishing acts, or too close to finish. This time next year, two of their three flagship shows will be over.

Netflix has a good strategy in their hands. They need to focus on leadership, creative, and funding daring projects.

Side note: Consider this, Netflix already has three hit shows — House of Cards, Orange is the New Black, and Arrested Development.

Obviously, he was being ambiguous.

Who is your competitor? PayPal, Gumroad, Shopify, Stripe, Square?

How would Chec work for the following cases:

* A non-profit selling shirts to raise funds.

* A freelancer charging for his work. Essentially, a money transfer.

* A SaaS style service charging $5 a month.

* Charging for a PSD.

The first thing Chavez is being described as on his death bed: "an Anti-American socialist".

The crux isn't a list of things they do right, but the emphasis of "doing it right" is what makes the company so reliable.

A CEO who sticks by the grand plan. This is refreshing.

Regardless of how technologies evolve, the world is going to be a creepier place.

What these platforms are trying to insinuate is that — the iPad can become a platform like Wordpress.com! "Create a blog in minutes" is the equivalent of "create a magazine app in minutes" here.

Considering that Yahoo has products ranging all the way from horoscopes to web hosting — this does not feel enough.

Explain him with a language that he will understand.

This is not a case of blaming the "minority". To understand, let me digress a little – the case where we can easily get away by blaming a minority is when a school blames a small subset of students for spoiling a school's average test scores. That is called blaming a "minority" and it works.

However, what has been done here is purely for work optimisation. Mayer is clearly trying to change the culture of Yahoo, and in the attempts of doing so she has found that remote workers don't fit in the type of culture of strong collaboration and unity she wants Yahoo to become. And therefore, she has decided to change that. Simply stated.

There can't be any way for us to understand whether these remote workers under performed at Yahoo or not! However, when you try to make a defining culture, even the smallest of things matter. And perhaps, remote workers are not in line with the culture Yahoo is building. Regardless of how small the workforce is.

What will be interesting to me is how many of these remote workers are truly remote? As in, how many of them work in a completely different location than Yahoo HQ? To be honest, going down to work when you're living 5 blocks away from the office isn't particularly characterised as remote, knowing that the boss can call you in any second.

Privacy is what is going to define this generation.

However, no matter what you think, Government Surveillance is better than private surveillance. It's a democracy for crying out loud.

But the preamble, is that the breach of privacy is bad in any use case scenario. Realistically however, surveillance is always going to exist. Either covertly or legally. Nothing much can be done.

Regardless of what the aftermath of Ubuntu on mobile may have, without any prejudice of it being over an eternal year away: the iOS interface for multi tasking is tame. It needs an overhaul.

For post-pc devices to go mainstream, they should display how easy it is to multitask on them. This use case scenario is extremely important on the iPhone. Android, Windows Phone, WebOS, and now Ubuntu Mobile — all have better multi tasking interfaces.

However, the counter argument is that an OS completely build out of blind gestures serves as completely not obvious. This is a problem for first case use scenarios. That being said, power users can rejoice alike.

P.S. If the Ubuntu Mobile continues to lag, we should just forget about it before it becomes the next WebOS. This is just getting embarrassing.

The title was catchy. Misleading in the end. No Harvard grad works in the mailroom, sir! Even if they do, it is for a very brief period of their lives.

And thus the "editorial" status!
