Where did you go after US? Don’t you still pay Uncle Sam taxes?

Sounds really cool. Best of luck moving forward and scaling out.

Gensler's view is clearly wrong, as there are tons of coins with the same properties as bitcoin, with no premine/ICO.

This is great. Curious, have you scaled the "making" operation, as in have you hired people to make products, or does your gf still make all the products?

GPT is good at boilerplate and is very bad at understanding and fleshing out complicated requirements, coming from N stakeholders with varying opinions and personalities. So I don't think GPT is a threat to human engineers in the &quot

IRS has happily kept thousands of dollars of my money when I filed incorrectly. A few years later I went to the IRS office for an unrelated matter and I asked the agent “can you look up year XXXX and see if I was owed a refund?” Agent looks

LLMs suck at deduction and factual reasoning. How are they reasoning engines?

Yourdrink.is is really cool! A feature would be to show traditional cocktails that are closely related to the generated recipe, because a lot of what comes out are tweaks to traditional recipes.

Thanks! TLT is only yielding 2.7% is that considered good in 6% inflation? I guess people bet inflation will go back to 2%?

This is like Charlie Lee selling all his litecoins. Divesting from the project in order to prove that he's not after enriching himself. But the idea landed really poorly with people who assume a leader is more motivated when personal w

If your nest egg is cash, it may be eroded by uncontrollable inflation. If your nest egg is in assets, it may be eroded by imploding asset markets. How do you keep your nest egg healthy?

What is "traditional"? In Django the web pages are generated by Python, too. In Rails by Ruby, etc.

What I find to be cynical and diversionary about this whole debate space is the implication that AGI is finally what we will have lost control over, as if so far in agriculture, industrialization, and computing, we’ve had things perfectly u

You could designate some handlers to be “frontend-only” and then compile them to wasm or js and run them in the browser. There might be usability/ergonomics issues with having “special” functions that don’t really work like normal ones

> front-end is not built statically In fact the Pynecone frontend is built statically. But UI event handlers are run on the backend. The latency scenario is identical to if you used HTMX or Hotwire or a traditional web server. You click

> it costs virtually nothing to ... Yeah but what's the cost of a global developer social network?

by shrimpx 4y ago
Yeah although it's strange to assume something is "not risky" when you don't what it is. If you're ignorant of what it is, and your money depends on it, that seems like cause to be worried and want to hedge the risk

> You think the CEO of a 100 person startup should be worried about something like a bank run happening? Yes. Not specifically a bank run, but bank failure. Cash is the lifeblood of a company. Let's not worry about our cash becoming

You don't have to be anywhere close to "omniscient" to understand the concepts of risk and insurance. Every layman knows about FDIC limits. In addition, these CEOs are backed and advised by resourceful VCs. Those VCs wrote ch

Companies will always look to (a) maximize the amount of available decision power and (b) externalize decision risk as much as possible.

If the depositor wasn’t ok with that (presumably public) decision they should have pulled out then. Or pulled out when treasury rates started ticking up and the writing was on the wall. Alternatively, they should have bought private insuran

This is an implicit argument for de-privatizing banking. There is inherent risk of losing your uninsured money when you lend it to a private company. If all deposits were to be fully insured we’re talking public banking, or much worse, pr

It’s more subtle, because these startups exist due to VC investment. Those VCs probably recommended and even set up their portfolio startups with SVB accounts. And a high percentage of these companies were heading to failure due to the natu
