Shortest I've been at a job was 3 months. I knew around the end of the first month that I needed to get out for two simple reasons - I didn't match with the company culture and the company was a sinking ship. I ended up completely

Apple has a nice list here where you can see what it connects to and why: https://support.apple.com/en-us/101555

Even getting in the program takes time. I signed up on Thursday, had to send a ton of documents, and for organizations, you need a DUNS number. Whole process kind of sucks currently.

The truth is that majority of people do not care about this. It's why AWS exists. It's why Fly.io exists.

Seems like there is an opportunity here for the next level of vibe coding - when you have actual paying customers.

Regarding Series A - since the YC deal has increased to $500k, there seems to be no pressure to quickly get a Series A when you have just enough to figure out if what you're building actually works and since the tools have gotten so go

Finding a third place helps a lot. For me, it's church. That's my community that's outside of work and family. But I also have hobbies (karting, gun range, etc.) and through that, I meet new people.

This is random but it's such a stupid name, right in line with OpenTofu.

When we immigrated to the US, my siblings and I used to dumpster dive as kids and we were surprised how much stuff Americans were throwing out. Our first year, we managed to get a couple TVs, old game consoles, old computers. All still very

That's a $1.50 too many.

I use Numbers daily for simple local spreadsheet math / tables. It works for what I need and I'm glad every new Mac comes with it.

I recently did something similar with a iMac G3. It was pretty fun to relieve some of my childhood past. We didn't have an iMac at home but we did at our school computer lab and the bright colors made the computer feel not only approac

I liked this season a lot though I didn't enjoy the filler episodes.

I have two iPads Pros. I still can't figure out where I can use them. I realize that they are overpowered entertainment devices for me now.

We retired our family 11-inch Air last year. Awesome little laptop but it just kept feeling slower and slower. Replaced with a M2 MacBook Air.

Driven the R35 in 2020. A lot of fun but definitely felt outdated by then. It's a shame that Nissan somehow had all the cards right (a working man's super car under $100k) and fumbled so much by just not innovating in the 2010s. T

I just used it for my annual Super Bowl party. What a crappy experience. I sent the link - the receiving person has to sign-in into iCloud using their Apple ID to confirm. That process requires them to authenticate with MFA. Once said and d

My company is on the list (S20). Several founders from my batch did really amazing stuff (Supabase, ZIP), others got acqu-hired. It's pretty interesting how the paths have developed over the years. I am still very bullish on YC. If you

I'd love to do this. The context switching between doing development and then sales is so freaking high for me that I basically had to dedicate a specific day to just doing calls and the rest of the days to only doing dev work. I'

Broke my arm a couple years ago in the US - total cost for me out of pocket after insurance was around $5k.

CHM has been my favorite to visit every time I'm in the area. I do wish they would have more modern stuff though. Especially the period between 90s to 2010s. There are some parts (first iPhone, Palm Pilot), but I wish they would contin

This is really awesome. There's several platforms that intentionally gate keep their API and it makes really annoying to build integrations with them. How do you go about these platforms and not breaking their TOS?

Love the design of the robocab. Assuming production looks something like this, can’t wait to see it IRL.

In my neighborhood, practically 1/3 of the houses have a minivan. Sienna is the popular choice compared to the Odyssey. Buying one brand new has been a challenge, we were put on a waitlist and eventually settled with a used one instead
