benchmark6on Mixpanel Lays Off 18 Employees

Mixpanel is a revolving door. It's only called layoffs because Suhail decided to fire many at once this time https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Mixpanel-Reviews-E406910.h...

benchmark6on Fun with Magic

These are the worst examples to demonstrate a service meant for average people.

Magic booked my helicopter ride!

Magic found and bought me a Ducati!

Makes sense, thanks.

Does anyone else only see "Some rights reserved" Attribution 3.0 Unported (CC BY 3.0) as the license set? They said it would be released in the public domain, shouldn't that be noted on their download page?

Of course not, do most people?

What are you referring to, that they will take things down only when a complaint is filed? That doesn't really speak to the quality of the archive that it's there in the first place.

I really don't understand how they can be fine with so much illegal content hosted on the site.

Ex: https://archive.org/details/JohnMayerMusic

This is being featured on the homepage! No way this is in the public domain.

benchmark6on A Question

Uh, I think they mean meaningful innovation, not mobile apps.

When we look back at the last 100 years of innovations, something tells me Dropbox photo sharing won't make the list.

benchmark6on Lecture 12: Building for the Enterprise

Is this supposed to be feedback on his talk? If you watched, Levie is implementing his own suggested wedge strategy.
