    What’s wrong with a parasocial relationship? I don’t have many friends in real life but I built a chat bot in 2017 trained on a few people (Mark Zuckerberg, Obama, Elon, Angela Mer…

    Super fascinating development. I wonder whether or not most drivers want this change. I presume it hurts the flexibility that attracts some to gig work?

    I think startups should stop using KPIs or BI dashboards. As a great friend said, “The best pilots can fly without looking.” Same thing applies to Rubik’s cubes and 99% of complex …

    Cool concept. Wonder if one day consumers will be able to sell their subscriptions too (e.g. I pay $10/m for Amazon and $10/m for Netflix but I could bundle them and sell it to an …

    Seems unlikely that everyone making minimum wage would suddenly be making $2 if there was no minimum wage. What’s your reasoning? If it was a pure race to the bottom then why aren’…

    Good points, I completely agree with everything you brought up. Can you try to find data on electrical usage per hour of a series of centralized RDPs vs your computer?

    Weebly/Wix are pretty good. Obviously has limits but we’ve built some pretty advanced sites with Weebly (e.g. restaurant site with menu PDF). Don’t have too much insight in regards…
