Will the Bubble Burst? Ask Your Cabbie
Jan 31, 2:00AM
There are too many headlines and articles about bubbles, market crashes, negative interest rates and venture-backed unicorns. Why write one more? Because I believe there is a much more pragmatic way to evaluate what you are reading from all the “experts.” Experts armed with mountains of data and statistical analysis predict the stock market is going to crash, while at the same… Read MoreOne Sidecar, Up With A Twist
Jan 30, 11:00PM
I’m old enough that when someone says Sidecar, I immediately think of Cointreau, lemon juice and cognac, shaken and served up. What’s remarkable to me is that the folks at GM, one of the country’s most venerable industrial enterprises, heard “Sidecar” and instead saw an interesting enough opportunity to find $39 million in cash to buy a shuttered company.

Jan 30, 7:00PM
Sci-fi tech, meet Wall Street. A recent report from Goldman Sachs predicted that within 10 years, virtual reality hardware will be an $80 billion industry. This “base case” forecast assumed that adoption will be slow, as compared to that of smartphones and tablets, but, the report noted, “as the technology advances, price points decline, and an entire new marketplace of… Read MoreTelegraph Academy Bootcamp Teaches People Of Color How To Code
Jan 30, 7:00PM
Where are all the people of color in engineering roles at tech companies? Berkeley, Calif.-based coding bootcamp Telegraph Academy, which plans to relocate to Oakland in the next few months, wants to make it so that the tech industry has no excuse not to hire black and latino/a people for technical roles. “First and foremost we wanted to be in a city that was racially diverse and had… Read MoreChina Just Released True Color HD Photos Of The Moon

Jan 30, 2:00PM
Call me Ishmael. Some years ago–never mind how long precisely–having nothing particular to interest me in meatspace, I thought to visit the Vale of Silicon. It is a way I have of driving off the spleen. Whenever my meds get such an upper hand of me, that I yearn to troll passersby–then, I account it high time to get to cyberspace. Read MoreThe State Of P2P Lending
Jan 30, 1:00PM
P2P lending became one of the hottest industries in fintech — or any other any industry — in 2015. Companies raised large venture rounds, investors found unicorns and there were even a couple of IPOs. Will 2016 continue this trend, or will the P2P lending bubble finally pop?

Jan 29, 11:45PM
Tesla CEO Elon Musk thinks shares of his motor company are headed upward. That’s the apparent message reporters received this afternoon from Tesla’s PR machine, which sent out an alert that Musk exercised 532,000 of his options in the company, or about $100 million worth, earlier today. According to an SEC filing, the options were exercised at $6.63 a piece, which would have… Read MoreApple Maps Had Been Directing People Searching For Abortion Clinics To Adoption Centers Since 2011
Jan 29, 11:03PM
Recent improvements by Apple in Siri and Apple Maps have corrected an ongoing issue where the products had been directing people to adoption centers when they asked for an abortion clinic. Though the company has known that this was a problem since at least 2011, it said at the time that this was a “glitch” and promised Siri would get better. But not much changed in five years.… Read MoreIs Logistics About To Get Amazon'ed?
Jan 29, 11:00PM
In November 2015, Beijing Century Joyo Courier Services registered with the U.S. government as an ocean shipping provider. So what?

Jan 29, 9:47PM
Update: Title changed to reflect that FanDuel does not use Vantiv for payouts, and offers additional deposit methods besides Vantiv processing.

Instead, it came from the company that is responsible for processing… Read MoreDelivery Startup Doorman Adds Support For E-Commerce Returns

Possession wins trophies or, in this case, ad dollars. That’s why Snapchat stepped up its game late last year by quietly partnering with Stats.com. Now TechCrunch has learned that Snapchat has rolled new Live Score geofilters at every NBA arena and some other matches.
