Not sure if this is YC company, but YC has been using this recently on their YouTube Startup School videos; for example, look at the description of this video: https://youtube.com/watch?v=hyYCn_kAngI

What are the odds that the “tipping-bucket rain gauge” was impacted by being repeatedly shook by the storm, triggering the counters — or some other source of error, fraud, etc.? Is there data for cyclonic rainfall that might be modeled for

Audio samples to me feel lower quality than other samples I have seen from competitors, but been awhile seen I looked into text-to-speech so unable to quickly post example of a competitor’s less glitchy samples. EDIT: Here just one example,

Optimal Stopping Problem always confused me, since it seems to assume you’re not aware of a meaningful measure of what an optimal match would be, but aware of what the optimal set of potential matches is. For example, say there’s a goose lo

Understand your point, though to my knowledge YC doesn’t release numbers related to counts of nonprofit applicants. Might easily be even more competitive than the for profit applicants since would only take 60 nonprofits per batch to be at

Point is that generally speaking databases rarely delete fields once added, especially field as valuable as a phone number; as such, my assumption is Twitter has had a field in their database for a user’s phone number since it was first rel

Trying to find the best possible reading of a comment does not mean ignoring the literal meaning of a comment. If the comment was, as speculated, a reminder for the user, it’s not appropriate and counter to HN guidelines: https:/&#x2F

Agree that’s possible, though tried to think of a more valuable reasoning. To me, posting comments with notes for yourself is basically spam, especially comment like “following” - which adds less value than just upvoting a comment; to follo

Really depends on a lot of factors, but majority of businesses rarely need a “startup” vibe after reaching scale. Clearly there are exceptions, though all founders die at some point and waiting until they do is rarely best option for the co

No, in my opinion you do not need to understand farming. Liquid Death bought water wholesale from a bottling company. At 8000 trees, that’s a business, but barely, and would not support a real growing coffee business. Running building and r
