Sounds like polyphasic sleeping might re-emerge as the lifestyle solution. Instead of waiting for agents to complete, you should sleep on the response so when you arise you have the optimized prompt ready to go and a reset on your energy to

I dont see it as a contradiction. Apple knows its core competencies and has the cash to back to any initiative worth pursuing through acquisition and/or hiring. Cook was a savant at vertically integrating supply the supply chain and ho

Congrats on the launch. Few pieces of feedback that are similar in nature to what has already been shared but unique in terms of solutions. 1) The chat interface as shared in the video is a prime starting point to capture intent but anchors

OpenAI isn't publicly listed so it's hard to tell how this affects them from a "share price" concept. However for a company that's not public and only has capital from financing rounds and revenue, this gives OpenAI

The high concentration of tech companies that are spending on AI are also the ones controlling the narrative including the funding, success criteria, and communication. We are more likely to see minor corrections that effect individual comp

That's why the first million is the hardest since it's working capital for most working folks. After that, it can stay invested and compound.

It's less of an illusion but more that the reality is separating into two, one which we live and breathe as day-to-day working class/consumers and another that caters to the market makers of government & private sector.

Pay cut when the market goes down and pay raise when the market goes up? Sure there's volatility involved but these stocks beat the market on average and drive close to 15% of some indices (i.e. FAANG at 15% total market cap of VTI). T

This seems like an opportunity for more high rise mixed use buildings that do not have essential functions on the bottom floors. The older SFH's were probably most effected and newer SFH's despite stricter building codes are not r

God forbid someone learns business and has produced multiple successful businesses in some of the most forward looking, technical fields. That does not immediately disqualify their ability to know technical topics and if even may signal qui

Comp at Netflix is all salary whereas the other ones include equity. For some reason, this is not taken into account and thereby skews the whole discussion.

Great points and a few others to add. 1. Russia has definitely chosen the optimal time to act. Grain harvest is down everywhere due to drought except...Russia ( https://www.bbc.com/news/world-62149522 ) and they naturall

The whole point of minimum wage is to ensure that employer wages to employees to exceed some level of poverty. If there is still flexibility within the wage amount, then the floor needs to be raised higher so the employer can't play wi

This plus WFH is an even bigger challenge since the lines have blurred between free time between meetings and free time before and after work. At my wits end trying to be a serious working professional and a contributing father & husban

I think part of it is demographics. Facebook's userbase is and continues to trend older especially for Facebook/WhatsApp and slightly for Instagram as well compared to TikTok/Snap. I'm not saying Facebook has abandoned t

The traditional model of plant for 5 years and harvest for 5 years is dying/dead. Seed investments are getting larger and bleeding into Series A. Companies are staying private for longer. Liquidation events can be pushed further out wi

Totally agree. There's some impostor syndrome in play here. If you don't need the scale, why waste your time managing a more complex setup? Heroku might be slightly more expensive in the short term but your time is better spent bu

Constant Contact is still independent. Its WYSIWYG is just fine and comes out a little cheaper for me.

I really love this idea. I see a lot of similarities to fitness with the idea of organizing regiments to sprints/pomodoro for generating flow. It seems like the current iteration is a conservative and accessible akin to a Planet Fitnes

Congratulations on YC, pursuing your dreams, and taking on an idea that is obviously somewhat controversial. Based on YouTube, social media platforms, and the Internet in general, our worlds are becoming more polarized and segregated by def

It's a natural phenomenon. Potential for anything turns into realization that hard work and passion need to also be coupled with capability. It's debilitating in some ways but a coming of age for others. Those who can cross this c

It's not quite so clear cut. Less and less hardware solutions can meaningfully exist without some software for it to provide the functions it was meant for when purchased. This is a slippery slope that brings together the right to repa
