> who WANT to have a VR work setup that gives them screens the size of walls. I saw that in the tech demo last year and would agree with that sentiment. Yet I wouldn't want to wear headset for a full day to achieve that.

Having built mobile-based AR apps, I realized that I see more value in projected AR over screen-based AR (Glasses). With the obvious example being : parking instructions while driving a car

I recently removed Reddit, Imgur, Twitter from my life and realized there is so much more interesting and edgier content out there.

I wouldn't argue against your points. Yet, we need to have a discussion about character and role models. As I believe we should strive for the better not pointing out the flaws of others. Destruction is easy.

this is a really important conversation that we are not having. Based on whose character are we modelling these agents? If we rely on online conversations for the training we need to realize that this is a journey to the dumbest common deno

That's the answer to the YC Interview question "What is your unfair competitive advantage" in a nutshell. Morally it might be wrong. From a business building perspective it's access that no one has.

I am lately strangely obsessed with the decline of modern culture as seen in the MCU and Star Wars. This 'a-historic'-ness materializes itself in that the author's of She-Hulk have apparently never seen the 1970s struggle of

Well in the 60s we "[...] choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard". Now we are afraid of our add showing up in odd places. Of course I am exaggerating,

I guess that's where this goes. Just a flood of even more irrelevant content making all Social Media apps inherently worthless.

Well, the way I see it, we have spent the last 20 years building Social Media, Influencer culture, Creators, and a Ad-tech driven surveillance. If AI helps us focus on Robotics, Spaceships, and underwater cities, I am game.

While it might not be fair this is commonly referred to as Market Risk for investors. Failures like SVB or CS are rare which makes them so much more painful.

Quite interesting if you think about this not as a marketing jingle but as Art. Contrast it to Poe's Beer Poem "Lines". What does it say about humanity and their ability to create wonderful things? Does it change ? The beauty

Well, when I was working with auditors (internal AND external) in previous roles in major financial institutions, we always performed tests if risk management tools are sufficient and reserves are proper. In the case of SVB it would have b

Somehow that feels like an entirely avoidable problem. "Do we need to increase unemployment to bring inflation down" What kind of inflammatory nonsense is this? We could clearly observe that the largest driver for inflation in t

One can argue that the way we implemented this on finclout it even simpler. Its as simple as receiving a share of the Stakepool revenues based on relative performance on the platform. Passive content income through real yield treasuries.
