Our last few books have been fiction, but nonfiction is totally on the table if it can get the majority of the vote.

Depends on the book, if something is freely available we’ll provide links, otherwise we encourage library use and let everyone decide for themselves where they stand on piracy vs. buying the books.

Suggesting that someone read the article in a comment section under said article…blasphemy!

On iOS I’m very happy with Memmy, I was on Apollo before and it feels similar design-wise.

Yes, user-wise this won’t really negatively impact Reddit this is why I called it penny pinching, they weren’t losing out on huge amounts of money with the 3rd party apps. What I was mostly referring to is that moderators are frequently power users who either used 3rd party apps personally or used them because the moderator tools inside of them were way better than Reddit’s native ones.

It’s ridiculous to me that there are still people volunteering to moderate, Reddit had such a good deal with running mostly on free labor that is satisfied with some scraps here and there.

And what do they do? Turn the people who are sustaining their business and ask for nothing in return hostile towards them over some penny pinching.

I’m trying to be unbiased here, Mark and Martin from my reading deserve some credit for the initial creation of the company and vision but I’d agree that they have very little to do with where the company is now.

Elon does play a big role, I don’t like his grandstanding and arrogant behaviour as much as the next person but to suggest otherwise would be foolish, I’m not sure how far beyond just his money and determination that contribution goes but it’s there.

It is however also foolish to not mention people like Jb Straubel, Franz von Holzhausen and many others when talking about Teslas success, if there’s one thing Elon is good at it’s getting talented people excited about hard problems.

One of the many problems with Elon is that he actively supports his portrayal as the lone technical genius who does most of the work instead of a guy who is very good at motivating (or sometimes threatening) talented people into working 80 hour weeks and also has a bit more technical understanding than the average CEO
