You’re in a bubble if you believe this. On a personal level sure, but my middle aged and old family members use it for everything and they are the last ones to understand internet things. They have 0 complaints, though I personally have my

Hey Andrew! Thanks for sharing all the resources and giving me guidance a few years ago. Still very thankful for a few of your posts and pointing me to read Venture Deals, all made me a much better CTO and founder. Hope your current journey

To suggest that MSFTs lawyers didn’t think of this massive loophole and power dynamic issue with the non-profit parent co is ludicrous. They 100% have leverage to exert influence on both, it’s just bad PR if word gets out.

Microsoft (with thousands of lawyers on staff) invests $10B in a company and has no power or leverage over the decisions of a non-profit board headed by several names no one has heard of. Come on. No way Microsoft’s team does a deal like th

I've gone to Svalbard a few times and spent a lot of time in Norway. It's a really interesting place. GitHub has the Arctic Code Vault there. The Global Seed Vault is there. Lots of satellites and climate change research happen th

The Galleri test by Grail detects 40+ types of cancer, some as early as stage 1, with a blood test. It’s about $1000 per test.

Awesome. There is a definitely a need for LLM product analytics that is currently completely underserved by traditional tools like GA, Mixpanel, etc.

It’s fine. Just make sure the scope is as narrow as possible. At my company, I signed one. But, before I did that I found 5 other companies that I would want to work at someday that are tangential to us and ran them by the founders for clea

There is something here. Other commenters are comparing to Disqus and Reddit, but I actually think the surface area here is potentially larger. Imagine subreddits for every domain on the web, automatically. r/news.ycombinator.com, r&#

I've been building in, and watching, this space for 5+ years. It's incredibly difficult for several reasons: 1. Business model - people won't want to pay more than a few bucks a month (think Dropbox/G Drive) for this ser

If you are unfamiliar with biotech or FDA, Phase 1 announcement is like OpenAI announcing their mission in 2016. Ambitious, but very low probability of success and will take 5+ years, if not 10.

I, for one, and super excited to see how Rich and Clojure evolve post-Nubank. Clojure and Rich's talks greatly inspired me and improved my software thinking skills - I can't say thank you enough!

I'm really into archival. And am so into it I have been to Svalbard several times! Curious to see how that space unfolds in the coming decades since there is just so much data and people are going to become sentimental about their memo

Not at the moment, but the waitlist is a real waitlist that moves forward, not the typical smoke and mirrors email marketing grab. Not familiar with that provider, but our core offering tracks this over time. I would recommend comparing the

Yeah, our internal engineering team in the US are members (me included) that want the same thing! Do you have any suggestions on file format with the ideal schema? I've done deep dives on PubMed and GitHub but haven't found a grea

This was a 10 minute proof of concept! There are so many optimizations I'll do on the next iteration, but the idea is that people are reaching for databases that are overkill and add network latency that can be avoided
