Compesh is a question and answer (and debate) website, so before you make a debate, you better learn what an assertion is. I suppose you already know what a question is, and that you've typed it in the box. ;)
An assertion, is basically a statement you can make, that is either true or false.
Richer people have better health.
The question for that would be, Do richer people have better health?
And don't forget to make your assertion, match your question.

Joel Spolsky explains how “Internet Startups” actually work. An accurate explanation, when you think about it. He unintentionally explained the answer to this question.Now which would you rather help to create, manage and control? The words or the technology behind the words?
Also, because the whole business model and point of startups, is to transfer A's typed words to person B; they don't really have to do anything else. Startups are doing, and will continue to do, their purpose of what they've been initially intended to do.
