In an interview with NY Mag’s Kevin Roose, Marc Andreessen explains his optimistic outlook: “There are people who are wired to be skeptics and there are people who are wired to be optimists. And I can tell you, at least from the last 20 years, if you bet on the side of the optimists, generally you’re right.” If Marc came for dinner at my parent’s house, we’d have him turned before the brisket was served.
