A cool experiment. If you're a startup, do not use logo-generation services. You all look the same to me. Find a strong brand/graphic (not UX/UI) designer to partner with over the long term as your brand develops and invest

The problem with AI isn't (p)doom it's the 99% probability that the people at companies like Dropbox will continue to treat customers like human chattel. They'd enslave you and charge you a subscription for oxygen if they cou

The days of looking up to SV unicorns is over. The sooner we start thinking small, building small, and ignoring the religion of hyper-growth the better. Yeah you might only be a decamillionaire instead of a billionaire but that's okay,

I would pay for a comprehensive AI-driven service that delivers alerting on any topic. Google alerts SUCKS for so many reasons. I might not be aware of other services though so if anyone is – please enlighten me!

You didn't miss out because Sonos continues to do an awful job software-wise. One of the things I'm most looking forward to as I de-IOT-ize my life is selling that system and running speaker wire like a true G.

I'll tell you exactly why: because graphic design, which used to be about concept and humanity and risk-taking, has been transformed into a darkpattern-loving exploitative commodity in which no truly creative person wants to live. The

Curious to know what HN scifi fans like on the other side of hard science. Bonus points for more recent stuff including online fiction or short stories.

Generative AI doesn't create art, it just creates novelty. Art requires so much more than just what you see with your eyes. The market for AI-generated stuff exists, and I think it's a fine toolkit for exploration, drafting, democ

My understanding is that fires in forests are not only quite common and have been long before humans were around, but that naturally-occurring fires are a critical part of forest's natural lifecycle and evolution.

Nothing you just described requires an entanglement with full-time technical cofounder. I could get a ROM estimate on, say, your lathe from a product design/engineering firm for a few thousand bucks, use that as PRD + go/no-go, th

I just mitigate as much risk as I can, as early as I can, and it's worked so far. Tech is littered with hundreds of companies that died because of personality conflicts - which can be readily mitigated with an MSA and SOW. As I note i

Sorry you've had those experiences, but mine have been consistently profitable and pleasant. I think a big part of that was that I asked around before I selected an offshore partner, instead of just choosing the cheapest or the first.

This is dated. There's no rules to founding your own company. As a non-technical founder I can A) Get a technical cofounder which takes me weeks to find, dilutes my ownership, and with whom I have no recourse if their work is sub-par (

Yes, this is because Hollywood - like tech – is a subset of business, which optimizes for profits over creativity. Which is why, as a creative, I'm not super-worried about AI destroying creativity. It might actually help democratize mu
