As a software engineer that spends a lot of time in marketing, I didn't find GPT 3.5 useful for anything besides writing marketing copy faster. I have found GPT-4, on the other hand, to be excellent at writing complicated SQL queries,

I'll throw in another wrinkle: it's not just the candidate pool to consider, but how companies are choosing to leverage - or avoid leveraging - the platform. I wouldn't say Triplebyte imposes a significant cost on the candida

While I appreciate the sentiment of this post, I'd like to see some real stats on "hustle porn" culture's effects. My impression is that the author is pitching doom and gloom where there might be only a small - and incre

Judging from Rob Walling's thoughts on this topic from his book -- the equation looks different for the kind of company they're looking for. There's no "huge risk of failure"; the focus is on businesses highly likel

This sounds like a big deal, but doesn't seem to be getting attention. Am I missing something? Giants like Facebook, Twitter, etc. have a huge competitive advantage because of their user moats. There are a countless number of people wh

I really like his example at the end - step-by-step deep dive into a specific topic. 30 hours of learning, direct links to resources, come out the other end as informed and aware of the topic at hand. I usually find it difficult to wade thr

"The reporter, Alan Selby, reportedly saw some staff members “asleep on their feet, exhausted from toiling for up to 55 hours a week.” Toilet breaks were timed, and workers were admonished by supervisors for stopping to catch their bre

That's fair from their perspective. Frustrating from a competitive standpoint: the most common reason for a user's "Why wouldn't I just use Facebook for that [instead of some new product]?" seems to be that all thei

I find it concerning that Facebook now has an excuse to lock in their data monopoly by effectively refusing to give up their users' data about themselves. For example, it appears it would now be impossible to build an IG alternative pl

I can understand the points about social aspects at work, but some of the content concerning more tangible business benefits seems too idealistic. e.g. "I suddenly remembered that I’d seen a communication exchanged between these two gu
