   I'll go against a few fellow commenters by saying that I wouldn't recommend an accelerator if you just want to educate yourself about fundraising. You might end up wasting a few months going through their programs, with not much t

   I think it's only a matter of time till this becomes a reality. And I'm saying this as a crypto sceptic, and someone who's never invested in any.

   Mind showing/sharing it? I was thinking of doing some historical analysis on trending topics on HN.

   Doesn't the proposed solution already exist? Authors are allowed to publish their papers in preprint repositories before submitting to a journal.

   Second that. Demand for Python devs is insane.

   Tell them you got another internal role at your company. It's reasonable and totally unverifiable.

   Knowing the work culture, I highly doubt the quality of life in Japan & Korea are better. Singapore is amazing indeed but it's unfair to compare it to governments of much larger nations.

   The upshot is that the AGI might realise that companies are wasting money making annoying ads.

   Nice stats. Pretty surprising how Java's doing better than JS in overall market share, and growth.

    Looks cool! One piece of feedback I have is that I personally wouldn't want to autocomplete prompts as shown in the image you have there. I'd want something that "fixes" my prompts so that they're understood by the

    Ah I see, thanks for the tips!

    I haven't got access to DALL-E 2, but I did give Midjourney ( https://www.midjourney.com/ ) a go. I found it really cool it created images that somewhat resembled my prompt, but I still felt it was way off what I really

    Looks impressive to a layman like myself. I'm guessing it addresses the global shortage of single-board computers like Raspberry Pis right? Curious to know how long it'll take to do that as well.

    I was actually posting about data science / ML during that time. It's these kind of topics that I enjoy talking to people about though. I get very quickly bored if we talk about other stuff. Sad I know.

    Oh, never thought of doing it like that. I'll give it a go, thanks!

    How do you find those smaller accounts though? When you look by topic you tend to get tweets from popular influencers. And I may sound lazy but I don't like the idea of doomscrolling through Twitter just to find the right person.

    Sure, here are a few things on my mind now: - Practical use cases for crypto/blockchain. I don't believe in the speculative financial assets that came out of it, but I am intrigued by the idea of a central bank digital currency fo

    Yes, when I realised it's just like Facebook I decided to stop posting altogether. I never heard of angel.co as a social platform, only know of it for startup jobs. I'll have another look, thanks!

    I tried Slack and Discord groups, but they had too much noise.

    Those were the kind of posts I was writing, and they didn't work. A lot more effective to do a low quality outrage-economy style post. My most successful one by 100x was a generic complaint about tech recruiters.

    I agree, it's more for reminding existing connections that you exist. Sadly not interested in nonprofit volunteering at the moment, too worried just making ends meet. London’s very expensive these days and wages aren't great.

    I got a few really good exchanges on Reddit. But I always feel weird reaching out to people directly afterwards, I feel the platform isn't made for that.

    I find Twitter conversations are just as shallow unfortunately. I do follow a couple of people there - Benedict Evans and patio11, but comments on their tweets aren't any better.

    I really want to believe in this, but from personal experience it hasn't worked out. I used to spend a lot of time posting frequently on LinkedIn, nothing came out of it. Maybe I didn't try hard enough, maybe there's survivor

    As a crypto skeptic, CBDC-as-a-service are the only thing that make sense. Say you're a country like Zimbabwe and you want to quickly create a currency that everyone trusts? You buy a third-party CBDC service. Obviously a lot of things

    Funny, I'm typing from Schiphol having just taken a flight there with KLM, and about to take another one with them. Everything seems fine, no large queues or long waits.
