As Paul Graham says, we should be ambitious and optimistic. Energy is a big problem to solve. Perhaps the most important next problem? As @hodder says, YC is not the best place to build this. So, it is reserved for the big ones? What could

Ok. It makes sense. YC is not the best place for this kind of companies. Let's see if I understand your point and also to clarify for other people: - Low capex = the startup doesn't need much money invested in physical assets such

Why Firefox? What makes it different?

I have tried and it works well. I bookmark it to use it in next days. What I do now: I am in a small country in Europe and I use translations a lot, every day literally. I am in a Mac and I have a "space" dedicated to that with th

For me, my goal is to be useful, to make the world better. I think I 'become' passionate about the things I do well. I know I'm doing something well when it helps others, when I see results. It's all a chain: try to solv

I keep a document with a list of possible books. I separate it by subject or genres. To feed that list: - Suggestions from other people: HN, podcast, X - Repeat the same author when I find a book I like - Suggestions from Amazon and Everand

"do the thing repeatedly at the edge of your comfort zone and confidence follows" Sounds good, makes sense.

Definition of a startup: "a group of people trying to survive long enough to get lucky" This is a good one!

I have the same problem. What I am trying so far: - Build things for me. I try to solve my own problem. Then, I show it to friends. If it works for me, it could also be helpful to people like me. I built something very basic, I show it to p

I’m surprised no one compares her work more directly with Elon Musk’s efforts in autonomous vehicles and robotics — seems like there’s overlap. Anyone know more about how their approaches differ?

Rare example of product marketing that doesn’t feel like marketing. A short film, not a sales pitch. Direction by Spike Jonze. Last words hit hard: “Un elixir a mis heridas.” An elixir for my wounds.

Apple usually builds products to solve clear problems. With the Vision Pro, the need isn't obvious—and maybe that’s intentional. I wrote a post exploring how Apple might be marketing this as a platform-first device, not a solution-firs

I agree, good point. Many companies could be defined in similar terms. They move in the same direction, and the differences are blurred. It isn't easy to find what makes them different.

by NarcisMirandes 2y ago
I see your point. It's interesting, and I had not thought about it. Apart from that, their lack of clear definition and their expansion vertically and horizontally cause them to lose focus and be less effective. A small startup with a

Are you sure this defines them? Is this the main characteristic that makes them different from many others?
28.
by NarcisMirandes 2y ago
All the big companies have a very generic, hazy definition of themselves. They all try to do everything. The stock market forces them to grow. So, they go in all directions. You have a good point, perhaps it does not matter how do they defi
