If he’d had any insight, he’d have realized Reddit’s structure wasn’t a good vehicle for monetization and gone the way of Wikipedia/Jimmy Wales. He’d be popular and respected now and probably able to extract a decent living from it.

But his insistence that a square peg be pounded into a round hole will end up with him being neither popular nor respected—and he’ll never sniff that moonshot IPO.

This clown was elected state-wide to be superintendent of public education….so that he could run around Oklahoma holding meetings about banning books in public libraries. If you’d written a George Orwell rip-off with this plot-line 20 years ago, it would have been dismissed as hyperbolic and absurd.

War letze Woche Dienstag in London, Mittwoch bis Freitag in Edinburgh, Samstag bis Montag in Alicante, gestern Abend einen späten Heimflug der auch noch verspätet startete, bin heute um Mittag aufgewacht, hatte keine Ahnung wo ich war.
