    Of $1.4 trillion of outstanding student loans made by fed govt, just $600 billion is in active repayment (the rest is in deferment, forbearance, default, grace period, or still in school). It baffles me how any fiscal conservative could push for less accountability in the system.

    Thanks! It turns out that something as "boring" as security has a shot at being one of the largest platform opportunities out there ;)

    A little late to the game, but this post on tokenizing data is super interesting << reminds me of stuff was writing about in his book on identity!

    Never move a departure time earlier (unless — and this is the only exception — everyone is present and accounted for).

    I normally don’t Tweet anger at companies, but has blown that fuse. I am so angry at this company’s unapologetic malfeasance I want to dedicate my life to putting them out of business (new life goal!) unless they fix this colossal screw up.

    Apparently when you told me my flight was four hours delayed — via in app notification, email, everything — what I was supposed to do with that was get to the airport EARLY in case it turns out you were playing an awesome practical joke

    You can imagine why those customers might be very angry, and you might decide to apologize, but hey you be you

    Note to airline: when you send your customers a text message saying their flight is 1 hour delayed, then again but 2 hours delayed, then again 4 hours delayed, then whoops just kidding we are really leaving right on time, and then blame said customers for not showing up

    It's pretty insane credit card companies are so profitable they're able to pay out this much in rewards. The ppl who pay interest are basically subsidizing those who pay off their balance & earn rewards points
