  1. Companies who don’t understand remote working will fail. Paying for an office building and making your employees drive for hours and not get paid for it does not increase productivity. It’s a giant waste of money. Our company has been working remotely since the only way to do so was through a quake multiplayer lobby. Now, with slack, Teams, and Jira, who needs to drive to an office? Besides, what are the odds that the best person for the job lives within driving distance of your office? I see a bunch of dinosaurs…

  2. This is the kind of thinking that Blackrock has. No true value given to human beings. Just a bunch of idealistic BS. I now understand why people hate Jason so much. What a fraud.

  3. It’s always funny to me that every crypto person thinks they need their own regulatory agency, As if crypto is important enough to merit that. Maybe one day but it’s still very very far from that point.

    They should really focus more on getting regulated by the cftc instead of the sec. That’s more realistic and the difference would be huge for the space

  4. If anything this segment made me more skeptical of crypto. No real answers here. When even "experts" like this self-describe their space as "Wild West" and admit no recourse for losses even as a result of incompetence or bad actors, you have to question if investing in it even as pure speculation is negligent.
