I actually tried launching that last year lol, I had a similar code to OP(except I was more thinking about sending jokes or meditation videos) The conversion rate of the landing page were very low so I didn't go further

I'm curious, were you actually making true friends at work? or was it just people who were nice enough to make it easier to spend the whole day working? I've never met someone I could remotely call a friend as an employee. I made

Are you joking? Cars and planes are an ecological disaster, I don't know a single place on earth where the ecological impact of public transportation is worse than the impact of cars and planes.

That doesn't change the fact that trains and public transportation in the US are crap. In the US, can you travel +1000km for next to nothing at +300km/h in an environmentally friendly way?(in most cases you can arrive up to 5 minu

not that much actually because the image are handled at a lower resolution and with a smaller set of colors, to make the models train faster(a lot faster) so they look pretty much the same to a computer vision algorithm
