I often read about interesting public companies (from an investment perspective or otherwise), but fail to then keep up with them over time (sometimes reading many months/years later how successful they were - or not!). I built this to make an easy way for me to follow updates from said companies.

#682- secure and complaint as it runs on Atlassian
- easy to create automation as AI does the heavy lifting of creating the automation scripts for Jira
- unlimited which was a major limitation in native Atlassian offering.

#683I got really good at rxjs and saw a way to make a custom jsx transform where every element is an Observable of string. I've been using it to make my site/blog and just got done writing a mini self contained jira board to iron out the interactivity aspects. Since it's strings, I just render to file for backend static site generation, then frontend I use diffDom library to do efficient (enough) updates from html string…

I've often wanted a bulk tool that takes the title or some other easy to find value from a pdf and renames the file to that.
Unfortunately, PDFs are right buggers to work with and there often isn't an "easy to find value" for anything

i have no skin in the game and honestly i am wondering how this idea contributes to enshittifying the web more? this idea just seems like it provides the same content as visiting the site in a different view, like reader mode?
It also obfuscates responsibility between the AI vendor and the scraping service. One can imagine unethical AI providers using a series of ephemeral "gateways" to access content while avoiding any legal or reputational harm.

How did you get access to HTGAA? I’ve really wanted to take this course but all of the videos and resources seem locked
Are you able to access last year's: https://howtogrowalmostanything.notion.site/ Otherwise, look out in Jan / Feb next year for applications to be a 'committed listener'.

#688I think there's an opportunity to do novel things in this space, and LLMs might help in terms of providing summaries that people actually want.
I'm building this for me, but I think it could be useful for other people, too.

#689The backstory is that AI investments are proceeding, but companies seem to be struggling to get things into production, so the ROIs are beginning to slip. Where I have first party knowledge, there is a (small sample size) trend of businesses kicking off significant data modernization processes.
Most interesting to me, is that organizations finally seem to be figuring out that it is worth managing "information" for the business and "data" in their applications as separate work streams, and seem to be acting on separating those responsibilities.
