Yup. My teammates joke that the best problem to have is “not my problem”. This might be a simple service, but this is one less thing to worry about

There was a bubble.io app (I tried bubble, didn’t enjoy it) built by a non techie, that is making 30k per month in revenue (I am trying to remember the name). Some of these no code / low code tools are really getting powerful and easie

I guess this is a good thread to ask - can you share your favorite, lesser known, hidden gem corners of the internet that are still around?

It is amazing that she could do such a radical change overnight, that too at an older age. Like, how can one go from luxurious lifestyle to sleeping on the floor overnight? Most people would have trouble giving up their luxuries for a coupl

Makes me wonder what kind of horrific stuff we would find in the secret archives of the past (and even the present), like unit 731 for example. Part of me wants to know, but part of me also wants them buried and gone so we as a species can

The other day, someone mentioned avoiding Chinese products and I argued it is not an easy thing to do. But sites like these? Easy decision. After this circus/drama, this site goes into my don't even visit the URL list. What a sh

I did my job very well for more than a handful of companies - all was great until it came to promotions and pay raises. It is possible that I suck at negotiating, but there is only so much of those that companies can/will give. I don’t

Unless you’re very rich or living like a monk, boycotting Chinese made products is not an easy task. Go to any American supermarket and look at the labels, I bet a majority of them are made in China. Voting with wallet only works when there

You're right about competitiveness etc. But nothing you said takes away the jaw dropping abilities of Simone and the other athletes your parent comment mentioned. It takes insane amount of practice, insane work ethic/dedication, g

I think it will work, especially if Microsoft can also build self hosted version of some of these tools. There is a huge market for such tools (look at how much attention self hosted Airtable alternatives are getting). Between self/clo

Do you realize the amount of money poured into propaganda/brain washing of the electorate? Even if all voters suddenly become super informed overnight, it is still hard to vote for good politicians (the very few) because of issues like

I'd like to live in peace, keep to myself etc. Sure you can take them to court, spend time/money/energy fighting them - is that what you want to do with your resources though? The older I get, the more careful I want to pick

I agree with everything you said. But we have different opinions about what entertainment is. To me, constantly insulting your opponents is not entertainment. There is a huge market for this kind of “manufactured drama” junk. As evidenced b

No, I find those interviews shitty and insulting to players. There is no value add. It is a bit different in combat sports. People like Conor have made this an art form - constantly insulting others, shit talking, talking about money etc. N

Media interactions of stars is part of generating and maintaining that appeal. Maybe it shouldn't be forced. I watch sports sometimes, but I have never cared to sit and watch hour long interviews, especially those just after the matc

There is one thing that I find fascinating and depressing at the same time - the belief that the uber rich got there with hard work and ethics alone, and that anyone can do it too, if only they work hard. It is the belief that they themsel

I was listening to a podcast interview, two people who live in different countries met on Twitter and started a online business and are doing very well. They have never met in person. We can call it luck, fate, law of attraction or whatever

In one of my previous jobs (financial services firm), we needed some specific data from census/bls etc. We looked around to see if anyone is selling the data - they were, but they quoted tens of thousands of dollars for what amounted t

The issue here isn't that one person owns lots of stuff, the issue here is that one person is in the process of accumulating something that is vital for humans to live, something that is also limited in supply . I mentioned Ferraris e

Better questions would be - why does one man need so much farmland? What is he going to do with it? How much more is he planning to buy? If he suddenly stops all farming on all farmlands that he buys, what would be the impact on the food su

If such laws are put in place, it would handle only foreign buyers. It still wouldn't handle local born rentiers. There should be some kind of robust policy change. It would be hard, since landlords aren't exactly a friendly bunch
