    Can’t help but wonder how much of what’s posted to LinkedIn today is already the output of an LLM. So their AI tool will, in the limit, be trained on the output of other AI tools…

    We're still experimenting with pricing. Our initial target is prosumers and professionals who want to level up their virtual presence. We're seeing customers who work in big tech l…

    We really want to address the problems with existing video conferencing tools. Meetings don’t have to be boring and energy draining. Plus there’s already a lot of good software out…

    Definitely want to stay opinionated. The goal is to create a tool for professionals who don't have time to set up OBS. We spend more and more of our days in front of a camera, like…

    This must be Cal's twin brother, Carl. /s Deep Work is a solid book and very quick to read. Most of his other books cross over into self-help, which can be tiring.

    Tiny Wings and Alto's Adventure were standouts for me. Also Device 6 gave me some hope that puzzle games could be special on mobile. But that dream never materialized unfortunately…

    Nice origin story! Confusing Matasano and Monsanto is like confusing Spotify and Shopify. With a relatively high number of common letters between names, it's not totally surprising…

    I agree that Swift looks quite promising, though I'm a bit surprised that it doesn't offer any concurrency primitives like Go does. I only say this because "The Swift Programming L…
