Agreed it’s gotten crazy, we’re upgrading our infra to go back to white label We’ll assume the risk of being the merchant of record, and just not use Stripe connect. It’s faaaaar less risk than having to co-brand with Stripe and be locked i

Probably covered by passwords but.. - 2 factor seed phrases. Combined with a password manager and a list of services you use could be quite convenient - Maybe also the answers to silly questions like ‘first pets name’ - list of professional

I reckon a "drive 1-2kms on a designed route and park" capability alone would be pretty useful for city planning. Imagine if instead of needing to put parking spaces everywhere, planners could just plan robust routes that any car

I wonder if this would work by simply using out-painting to preserve the black dots, to make a background, and then use in-painting on the dots with the condition that they stay dark

Personally I'd make the monitors the same size as real monitors. So... yeah maybe they'd be HD if they took up 2/3rds of peripheral vision, which would match my current monitors. But you could also have more of them, and hand

Two large screens in a hotel room - so sold (plus on a plane, if that's not socially annoying) Being able to stand side by side with people to work on something rather than broadcast my face into their face. It's just... so much m

There’s an interview between Musk and Tucker Carlson where he says he knew Google had these powerful models internally and thought they should be out in the open, so the answer was a non-profit called Open AI, it was the whole premise of th

Every depositor is getting $250k back immediately, surely that's enough to make payroll a few times over, factoring in other revenue they must have if their payroll is that large. For the rest of it, they might take a 20% haircut at mo

But if the software is just a feature flag, I can write my own one of those and not pirate their software at all It sounds more like artificially inflating the price for hardware

I agree with the two ways in general What if, the second way is easy? So long as you can understand and interface with the world effectively, which the first provides. From there what if it was just act and observe and a fitness function

I also gave them a look, but it seems their bandwidth pricing is significantly higher than hosting it yourself, so the price accelerates much more aggressively with number of users. That much price variability is just too much of a risk (co

Anecdotally I used to have to drive 30 minutes through suburbia for any “stuff”, but then moved to a town of ~3000 people and everything is still available, and it’s at most a 5 minute drive away. I do have a car but also cycle quite a bit

This, it’s a minor frustration but everything seems to be going cc by default, which would bump the usage numbers. I wonder if it’s because there’s a measurable engagement increase rather than just user preference? As someone who doesn’t wa

Customers do to some degree have a sense of ownership over the product. Marketers literally try to cultivate that "sense of ownership" factor. Especially where there's network effects, or a marketplace ecosystem forming. It v

It's true, it needs to be a social enterprise that ultimately makes itself redundant. What if a % of all revenue went into a warchest that built over time, and if it ever achieves the goal (of eliminating themselves) it got paid out to
