- tomrod 2y agoOne thing I have liked on one of the small business reddits is they require "I will not promote" in submission and as a rule. Stealth ads are annoying.
- loxs 2y agoThat's why I first read the comments to decide if it's worth my time.
- Boldened15 2y agoI'm curious, why? The startup connection is disclosed in the third sentence so it's not particularly hidden. And at least if it's a real product they're putting their money where their mouth, you can check out their product or reviews from customers to see if their approach is right. Someone working on AI tooling for code reviews is exactly the right person I'd want to get an opinion from on the space, otherwise it's just opining with no validation.
- fourside 2y agoBecause someone selling AI tooling is incentivized to sell you AI, not to inform you.
- avikalp 2y agoI'm sorry, I didn't mean it to be an ad. I have been interviewing engineering leaders for months, and my startup idea is born out of it. I don't have the product ready yet - it is evolving based on what I am learning. I just thought it would be a good idea to share what I have learnt.
