Most of the world outside of the US runs on Whatsapp. SMS is not an option because, again outside of the US, people pay by SMS sent. There are plans for Whatsapp interop but probably only in the EU. https://www.wired.com/sto

I hate these policies as much as anyone but if you decide to use an ad blocker you're only making things worse. You probably spend more time watching youtube than netflix. Just pay for a family youtube premium account and everyone will

Are we talking about the same company that needs data desperately and has used copyrighted material illegally without permission?

Anyone using Swift for web backend? I looked into Vapor but it seems much slower than it should be for a compiled language.

A couple of months ago I spent like $25 in a campaign for a small product I launched. It translated into literally zero real traffic let alone sales. I got likes from what looked like bot accounts from random countries (Kazahstan etc) even

I think there's a figure mostly absent in these processes. Designers and devs are living in their bubble/silo and don't think like a user. It's very rare to find someone who can understand design, UX, and code and put it

Will you be buying/renting the hardware needed to run these models with a decent performance? I can guarantee +99.999% of users won't be doing that.

Right now Google, OpenAI, Anthropic, etc are playing a game of chicken. But even after that it's not clear if the remaining players will be able to generate a profit. Even if AI companies can recoup the billions or trillions of dollars

I'm mostly skeptical about AI capabilities but I also think it will never be a profitable business. Let's not forget AI companies need to recoup a trillion dollars (so far) just to break even [1]. VCs are already doubting if the b

It was trivial to create the apps with a web view. Then we implemented new features integrated with the OS that we didn't have before. This was back in 2018 so my memory is a bit fuzzy but I'd say in total 2-3 weeks of work. We de
