Presumably there is already a supply of licensed veterinarians, unless the PE vet practices are hiring unlicensed practitioners.

Not sure what your point is. I'm not saying you can open a vet for free. All businesses require capital. But, as evidenced by your father, opening a new vet practice is not some totally new thing no one has ever done before. People hav

Hmm maybe I’m misunderstand something, but the article says only 40% of new products are still on the shelves after years. Later, the article says a harbinger of failure buying a product 3 times means the product has 56% chance of failure.

I can confidently say our users would be 100x less likely to sign up for a mailing list. From a user perspective, Discord is much better than email. When you give out your email, it's basically giving an entity carte blanche to spam yo

It seems like a vet would be about as expensive as opening a restaurant, maybe 1-3x as much. That doesn't seem like the most capital intensive thing ever.

Is this activity across all the servers you're a member of or is it a social Discord? Just my personal experience, but there isn't too much chatter on product-focused Discord servers so it's easier to get to every message. I

But the barriers to starting a new vet are pretty low. If existing vets are inadequate, new ones can start.

The issue with all exceptions, and error handling in general, is that only very rarely is there actually recourse for an error. For instance, in an HTTP request handler, the vast majority of errors will end up as something like a 500. Check

Oh, I see. Totally agree. Knowing what users actually need and knowing how to sell it to them is the most valuable thing in an early stage company. Way more valuable than engineering talent.

I don’t know if “cares about” is the right phrasing, but financial transactions are a “simple” use case for ZK algorithms. So practicality if implementation definitely affects how much a group or company cares.

Isn’t that like any startup? Options in early stage companies are basically shitcoins, and you’re discouraged from selling them.

The cost of college tutoring is up like 700+% from the 80s. Also ask yourself how many people can afford a house on a single family income like was possible in the 60s. It’s not many. Certainly not the median worker.

Sure you would need to normalize the market value somehow, but that’s different than acting like such assets simply don’t exist. One way of thinking of share ownership is the price being paid for a share of future cash flows. That’s already

No, you're misinterpretating what the GP said. The linked Fed graph is showing that the median real earnings are at an all-time high. But how can that be true? Median workers in the past could easily afford health care, a house, and ed
