I recall subway had "low" startup costs and it resulted in too many locations. What incentivizes the new location to do due-diligence in picking a good location? If this is placed into the chain owner: What's the difference b

Having spoken with few people, the process is still mostly people, building algorithms in Excel. Much of what drives decisions is research, and personal decision's, not automation. I've heard AI trading has done very poorly as the

Using the data we what have would already be a big gain. I think that's AI's biggest contribution. I've seen a lot of time and complexity go into improving functionality beat by someone who wrote code to track what actions we

What the future holds is hard to grasp, the piece shared with me yesterday was "we'll spend the next decade removing features, at no loss to functionality" One of the biggest pieces of bloat I've seen is doing the same t

Louis Rossmann just had a short video where he briefly mentioned fixing things under your control. (I think he phrased it as) cleanup the little area of the world you can, and let the effects ripple out. I've also heard similar tones w

It's a pretty common problem many experience for some period. Explaining a problem which "is easy to avoid" and coupling it with another you've already experienced "that made using my phone harder" reinforces t

The bus route near me is a 15 minute walk, the bus comes once an hour. When I lived downtown it was 30 minutes, then an hour long commute. Driving today takes me 12 minutes, 16 if I time it poorly with the rush. By bike is 30 minutes and I

I'm a big fan of design two systems. If timelines permit, ship the second, else ship the first. The first code will almost always be crap code because it takes designing the system to better see how the system should have been designed
