Userbase and customer relationships are valuable. If someone else creates GPT5, but doesn't have a large user base, then OpenAI the company could buy that invention. Or, as we saw with deepseek in January, fast-follow with a comparable

Honestly I think it's a great move if you know you have a hyped up valuation, to exchange that paper valuation for actual company acquisitions. Not every company has that ability.

For the 25-35 crowd I think there's a draw of "interesting activities for date night" that are low-commitment and could build a sense of community but don't require pre-planning. Really hard to build a business around, I

in a sense apple is already doing this, since there's shared chip tech in the laptops and phones. I still will prefer the form factor of a laptop for anything serious though; screen, speakers, keyboard. Yes you can get peripherals for

I'm skeptical of this. They have been doing this for a decade already. So far, those same companies have just become bigger and bigger customers of NVIDIA. NVIDIA is very strategic about building product to avoid commodification -- bot

Sounds like they are thinking about instagram, which originated as a phone app to apply filters to a camera and share with friends (like texting or emailing them or sending them a link to a hosted page), and evolved into a social network. T

Last I heard their team was still 10 people. Best size for doing something revolutionary. Way too few people to triage all that many issues and provide support. They have enough revenue to hire, they probably are just overwhelmed. They'

I looked through the documentation and I've come across a couple sites using this already. Genuine question: why not leverage the proof-of-work challenge literally into mining that generates some revenue for a website? Not a new idea,

I think I got the pitch meaning immediately: this is a specialized ai tool for code review. That said, that doesn't sound like something very useful when I already use an ai code editor for code review. And github already supports auto

I've had similar success vibe coding small, self-contained projects. Where it lacks is wisdom + taste. Not a problem for small greenfield projects. A very real problem for large codebases where it quickly implements silly technical app

Here's how this happened as I understand it. The original founder of the guardian, Taylor, ran it like a business. While today journalism struggles to make money, in the 1800s news was lucrative. In his will, Taylor carved out a sweeth
