email won't work because you'll have the one guy who'll just reply to the sender some critical information instead of replying all. Then you'll get the guy who replies all with some private information. And there is the guy who'll take the same email chain and just start a new discussion and topic, but keep the same subject matter. And finally, there's that one time you'll forget to add somebody and his feelings get hurt.

They don't even own the buildings, they just lease the space. That shows you how screwed up Silicon Valley Valuations are.

My company needed to lease out space there for a few months not too long ago and we really liked the space. The service was good, (TBH they weren't really designed to handle the needs of a non-startup company).

The best way to describe it, WeWork takes the old "business centers" and combines it with the coffee-shop which will let you sit all day, with some business programming.

It's a really well-executed idea, but the valuation on it makes less sense than Uber.

They seem to take the Anonymous seriously at AA. I met a girl who was in it, she was actively working as a sponsor and phone counselor. But she wanted to become a clinical psychologist, but she couldn't list her experience as an AA sponsor or phone counselor because nobody would vouch for her because then that would destroy the anonymity of AA.

So it would be pretty hard to do a scientifically rigorous study when you have a subject pool that refuses to participate.

Know how many white people are killed each year by black people? How many robberies? Why does race never come up in any of these crimes, but comes up every time a white person does anything to a black person? (And I'm not white).

Probably because the black person charged with the crime is convicted, regardless if he did it or not.
