This is what I've always thought. I think the structure of DNA or proteins themselves is that antenna that interacts with a fifth fundamental force of nature - which is that life spirit.

Magazines like Vogue, InStyle, Harper's Bazaar might sell 2,500-3,000 ad pages a year, each page costing $100k-$200k. $100-$150 CPM is typical. It helps to know that it's a $3 trillion dollar industry. Outside of fashion, you can

As a media business, they can be a lot more profitable with fewer high-quality users than hordes of low-quality toxic users. A fashion magazine only has 1 million subscribers, but can make $400 million/year in revenue, basically printi

Lots of sites are giving up on comments. They add nothing of value to advertisers.

Social media sites are learning the hard way that they're media properties like any other media property, and that they have to have strong editorial control over their media property to be a proper media business. Reddit is a hive of

Now I'm wondering if there's a viable "seed-deck development" business model that can scale to IPO..

The best option I found is Twitter. Pick any industry, follow it's key leaders and journalists, and follow their followers, and you basically have an RSS feed of that industry's news.

The later works can be dull, and if they don't sell, their gallery drops them. But its the initial works that draw them to the gallery in the first place is what needs to be amazing. Artists need to sell to these galleries first before

The key is to get a gallery to represent you. And not just any gallery, but one of the few hundred around the world with any influence - the kind that would have a booth at Art Basel or some of the other major art fairs around the world. Bu

It doesn't really shut down the market for those that actually care about art. The billionaire buyers will exist in a separate world from the everyday artists that are selling their works for $500. Completely independent markets.

Still, it seems like if you wanted reduced power, and could accept reduced precision, wouldn't you just do the same thing in binary by using only a few bits? Not even 8 bits, but like 3 or 4 bits?

Need comparison to GM Bolt EV, probably it's most direct competitor. My bro just got one of those, and it seems to live up to the hype as well.

VHDL/Verilog as well, but that's completely obvious. I've been using state machines for Javascript UI elements.. really simplifies things.

It's most likely a version of the ATM protocol[1]. Point-to-point, small packets, etc.. We used a version of that when I was working on the Iridium project. Likely the exact same thing here, especially if they hired the same engineers.

Do companies normally take 10+ years to go public? I think it was much quicker during the dotcom era, but I don't know how that compares to previous decades... Oh and congrats to the team :)

Accounts that don't have interaction get filtered out by Twitter in their timeline.

by mozumder 9y ago
And if you look at that account there's no real interaction going on with it for an account that has 175k followers.

Those all are automated spam, and doesn't really facilitate discussion. They just increase noise on the platform. Edit: Reminder that Twitter filters out posts that don't receive much interaction.

At the browser level you have Captcha, which is a lot more expensive to spam - you need a human somewhere to overcome - than an API.

What's the use case for Twitter to allow outside write API access? If twitter banned all API write access, what would be the problem? The vast majority of people would still use Twitter via the app or their website, and it would obviou
