Sounds like YouTube is doubling down on letting the folks in charge of "report abuse" triage bring their biases when choosing which videos make money and which ones don't. Hopefully Vimeo is taking notes...

That's pretty dope. I'd ride the crap out of a skateboard made from rockets ðY

Billionaires/Millionaires invests in start-up that could improve their profit margins by a non-trivial amount. Who cares? Show me the article when the technology is working and proven beneficial or otherwise.

Appreciate the nuance, perhaps I was a bit terse to get a reaction :) This was addressed by AC below but it is my subjective view that CEOs should be held accountable. It's hard for me to buy the argument that perception (and intrinsic value) of the Yahoo brand is better off after Mayer's reign. Thanks for pointing out the stock value; you are right that that is the best way to estimate the value of a company at a discrete moment in time. That says nothing about the future value; if I were a stock holder, I would SHORT. Market value changes lags real value changes. It's a bit disturbing to me to or so see the rise of CEO types that take on ZERO risk and end up coming out ahead when their companies ultimately fail. It can be framed as more of a gradual cash out process than outright bankruptcy, where shareholders can more easily recover any losses before the inevitable, but the ones delivering the cyanide to any residual value are the ones in control and ultimately do profit. Weird process.

What? The company lost 95% of value in the last ten years, five of those under Mayer.

But think of New Jersey! That state alone could power the country!

I agree Russia is positioning itself, yet I still believe at some level this is a genuine effort at global cooperation *ducks*. And there is already defense against cruise missiles (Patriot missiles, etc.), so is it not plausible that cooperation can protect the involved nations from cruise missiles as well? It would be trickier because of range issues, but still plausible.

And yes, one of the motivations is definitely the lucrative contracts. However, Russia would not agree to this unless some political gain is won. A couple multimillion dollar contracts are not enough to sway the foreign policy of such a large nation.

It is good to see such international cooperation on a global issue. Russia's foreign policy positions seem to contrast with what was accomplished at the summit; I wonder what the sentiment about this settlement is in Russia. The next question is if this network can be expanded beyond NATO. Imagine a network which protected Asia, Oceania, and Africa as well. Whether that is politically possible or not is in question, but I believe with enough time we could see the day. Or everyone could nuke each other with their counter-counter-nuke tech.
