Question to the community. Where can i follow research on this area understanding decision making and reasoning of neural networks?

I'm a great fan of Slack. Large portion of revenue for an b2b app like Slack will come from big corporations and businesses with more than 200 employees.

Microsoft/Google are heavily invested on large enterprises. These big giants can pull off a product like Slack and sell to all the big clients. Microsoft already sells communicator to large corps. They can switch that to Microsoft-Slack version and bundle it with their office products taking the large (90% revenue) out of Slack pocket.

Slack has to go really big to hit enterprises hard or they will be just serving small medium businesses which will have churn burn and less LTV.

I have a great respect for Marc Andreessen who have invested in great tech companies at early stage and they are part of my daily life. I have learnt a lot by reading his essays and his bullet points in twitter about startups and building companies.

I'm not able to understand why he has to make this comment. He sits in Facebook board and recently TRAI had declined Facebook's Free Basics which violates Net Neutrality. Does this have anything to do with his comment?

India has been growing great in recent years and it's headed for enormous growth in next few decades. India has the largest youth population in the whole world and it can transform itself into a great super-power if it's run by great politicians and put India back in track.

- The British East India Company was the original Free Basics. We all know how that ended.

The news i have heard from various googlers is, `GOOG acquired Firebase because a project started using Firebase as backend and grew very fast and they didn't want to migrate and just acquired FireBase`.

This is really interesting. I believe this might be attribute to all the Uber promotions in Asia. I have heard from all my friends in India/China that Uber rides are actually free for around 10-15 rides. Also, they are giving tons of money to Drivers to promote Uber in India.

An average Uber driver in Bangalore earns 110000 INR per month where as an entry level software engineer in GOOG/AMZN in India earns 80000 INR/month.

I was shocked that one of my friends who drove Uber in Bangalore told me that he made 180000 INR two months back.

It would be interesting to know Uber's customer acquistion cost and driver acquisition cost.

Also, Why does it require me to be an US citizen?

Hottest startup of the year 2014. http://onforb.es/1IoK3aU

Zenefits was founded ~2 years ago with the mission of re-defining the HR software space and giving it away for free. We have seen the hyper-growth like no one has ever seen in the industry. David Sacks (one of the paypal mafia and founder of Yammer) who saw the hyper-growth joined us as COO 3 months back. Even with this hyper-growth, We have penetrated only 0.1% of the market and so our journey is 0.1% finished.

Who are we? We are a group of 50 kick ass software engineers which includes Engineers from Facebook, Google and founders of various startups, solving problems which no one has ever dare to look into. We are looking to more than triple our engineers this year and we're looking for highly passionate engineers who can own the product from Day 1 and ship it to the world. We rapidly iterate and roll out new code every day.

We offer highly competitive salary and meaningful equity which is going to be worth a lot.
