I really like the idea of a non-profit with an end goal. It makes it much more targeted and accountable. Even providing bonuses (within reason and making it difficult to game) for completing the goal quicker would work as well.

There's too much money on the line if there is a lack of standardization and rendering/features are all over the place. I don't think it will turn that way as most users will converge on a small number of browsers. If there i

Really interesting. Also more powerful if integrated with animatronic movement. Reminds me of Furby. Doesn't even have to be full AI, just augmented with slightly smarter and more flexible capabilities

I mean when I was a kid I had action figures and played out scenarios. Would be pretty nuts if you could make your own TV shows with AIs assisting the play. Or set up your own battles, etc. Especially if it had more animatronic entry points

It's really nice to be able to take a laptop out and start working on an idea wherever you are. Macbook Air makes me more productive and home or anywhere because it's less of a hassle to boot up the laptop. I have a gaming laptop,

All-In declined quickly after the pandemic when they realized the value of their platform. They use it now to only milk their investments or push political agendas to milk their investments.

It's not just broadcasting of info, it's having information on your location, contacts, comments, biometric data, etc. It's the reason why the military banned it first. It can definitely be a national security threat.

This is a top answer. Robert Caro goes into excruciating detail on how he accomplished most public works projects. I especially appreciate him covering the grey or dark sides of getting deals done as most really hard things have some unplea

Cost as well. Most people don't want to invest in a high quality product unless it's something that is clearly miles above the competition (e.g. Vitamix, Herman Miller or Leap Chair, etc.)

I'd argue design and UX will be more important for engineers. You need taste to direct LLMs. You can automate some things and maybe have it do data-driven feedback loops but there are so many random industries/locations with off r

My job is determining what needs to be done, proving it should be done, getting people to approve it and getting it done. LLMs help more with the last part which is often considered the lowest level. So if you're someone who just wants

Yes, I've traveled to a good amount of countries and the overwhelming corruption or culture which doesn't support fair enterprise is soul crushing. You can say America has it to some extent, but in a lot of places you really don&#

Twitter was a really good mix of viewpoints and people, but it’s people so toxically politicized and right wing that a lot of the interesting accounts have left. It’s a weird thing that could’ve only existed because they weren’t focused on

The increase in real estate costs severely limits the opportunities for musicians to play live. I've seen some cover bands randomly at bars, but it's rough out there. I also remember in my youth in Miami there were numerous clubs

That’s there, but the parts about taking responsibility for your work, keeping people you delegate work to accountable and negotiating with vendors and being persistent is stuff you usually get informally. I also find those signs that it’s

I'm a big fan of MUJI notebooks. Perfect for me on the cost-quality spectrum and they have blank paper options. I have some from high school that still held up.

The really good books are REALLY good, though. But the only places I've seen them were at university bookstores (and even then mainly MIT/Stanford) or Amazon when they had physical stores. Otherwise you have to get them online

Suburbs can be prisons if there’s not enough people your age around you. I lived in semi-suburbs and had friends I’d walk to after school. Makes it more fun than having to organize car dates until someone gets a car. But nowadays kids are s
