How do you deal with a corporation just moving their HQ to another state though? It is hard because you cannot just say oh we should only have a federal income tax because then sta…

Isn't this the main complaint people had about cable packages though? People were tired of paying $100/mo and only watching 10 channels out of 150. I came across a startup awhile a…

Curious what time period this was. For example, if you lived in Portland in 2019 and Seattle in 2023 it could just be inflation causing people to go out less.

It seems like the main feature is being able to access your home network to watch netflix, access LAN devices, etc. How is this different compared to running a tailscale exit node …

Is the idea that you would need less chemo after the tumor is broken up to remove any remaining cancer cells versus just starting out with chemo to remove the tumor?

Yeah I agree it is a lack of understanding on how to use the tools. The main issue I ran into in my undergrad FPGA class as a CS student was a lack of understanding on how to use t…

Is a skill essentially a reusable prompt that is inserted at the start of any query? The marketing of Agents/MCP/skills/etc is very confusing to me.

The rise in the preventative screening centers (such as prenuvo) that offer whole body MRIs will be interesting. The research seems split on if it is worth it or just causes unneed…

Yeah, I have a feeling we will instead start exposing some /help api that the AI will first call to see all possible operations and how to use them in some sort of minified documen…

This is the first time I have heard of world models. Based on my brief reading it does look like this is the idea model for autonomous driving. I wonder if the self driving compani…

I have been part of a few migration projects like this. There is another issue apart from tests not existing. Business/Product still want new high priority features so developers k…

I have one and don't really use it for working remotely, but it really shines for media consumption. However, I agree with your points around it being heavy and not for everyone. T…

if you want to invest in open ai I think you can just buy it on NASDAQ private markets.

As a java backend dev mainly working on web services, I wanted to like python, but I have found it really hard to work on a large python project because the auto complete just does…

"Each merchant pays a small fee". This is affiliate marketing, the next step is probably more traditional ads though where chat gpt suggests products that pay a premium fee to show…

I remember when the c++ edition came out, but have not really followed since then. Are all of the servers/mods still written in Java and it was just the desktop client that was rew…

Seems like it would be really useful in a hospital setting as well. Instead of having to wear the heart rate monitors, etc. during recovery or a stress test it could be wireless.

Might as well try, the worst that can happen is they say no or ignore your email.

I am a backend dev, and I needed a website that was temporary for an event. I thought to myself this would be a good opportunity to learn some frontend development. After looking t…

With so much money flowing into the massive funds, do you think more and more unicorn startups will just stay private? It seems like there are liquidity opportunities for employees…

I think the MCP will take off because it can inject ads. Lets say a ecommerce store exposes an MCP so you can order your stuff with a prompt. The MCP can still rank and serve resul…

How do people even find these types of bugs? Is it just years and years experience allowing you to know where to look?

Yeah that makes a lot of sense. Way easier to iterate when you have access to a machine shop vs having to upload a CAD file and have a part shipped from another country.

Yeah seeing the innovations DJI is making in agriculture makes me wonder why VCs do not want to fund other startups like it. I know the margins are worse and it takes way more capi…
