His letters to shareholders are real gems: http://amzn.to/1UrANYO

Took me a month or 2 to read them all.

Hope he uses his frustration (and brainpower + money) to do something that improves the world.

To keep my sanity I turned off most of the notifications. Just can't stop using Slack bots: https://medium.com/the-freelancing-life/rise-of-the-slack-bo...

I try to focus on DM's only. Written about my addiction to Slack bots here: https://medium.com/@RecurVoice/rise-of-the-slack-bots-5a7928...

Pretty cool. Written about Slack bots before and my main complaint was that I missed 'one bot to rule the all': https://medium.com/@RecurVoice/rise-of-the-slack-bots-5a7928...

"Byzantine shipwrecks found during the construction of the first-ever tunnel under the Bosporus held up work for years."

Why does it have to take that long to dig up these ships and start the works?

How do they make these maps? Do they have satellite images of different points of (sunny) days and run the analysis that way?

Slightly off topic but made an overview of invoicing tools for freelancers and thought I might as well share it : https://docs.google.com/forms/d/13R8mP2zIGiBdmuZ0eq-s3coeY4n...

Installing was a piece of cake. The only thing that annoyed me slightly was a dialog that said 'We will be done soon' and it took a few minutes.

Wow, must have been awesome.

Found this cool timeline of programming languages: http://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/timeline3/latest/embed/index.h...

Affiliate links including T-shirts, books and posters. Only makes me +-40 USD a month but it is something.

Yup, that is it. Affiliate links include T-shirts, books and posters. Only makes me +-40 USD a month but it is something.

Good old times!

Man, some journalists are so lost. It is so shameful that people have to report about things they know zip about. (in this case they are doing ok'ish).

Yeah, Elon sounded sad that they just needed to update the software to make it happen. They could have saved the Dragon with this adjustment.

Great article about a previous innovation of Michelin that failed: In the 1990s Michelin developed a revolutionary new kind of tire with sensors and an internal hard wheel that could run almost perfectly for 125 miles after a puncture. They forgot to involve the ecosystem.

The phones are great but quite heavy + thick (at least the phones I saw).

This must be the craziest startup story I have ever read... You complain about VC's but these guys.
