Not all problems can be solved by a solo founder bootstrapping a business. If you're driven by the problem you're trying to solve for, you should take the path that most likely will result in you actually solving the problem. For

Pet insurance is basically the opposite. Most people get it when their pet is young and the premiums for young pets are reasonable and low. Then, as the pet ages, the premiums go up and up. And once you have any vet record of anything other

What did they ship from this? Interfaces? Is that it? It would be fascinating to hear more about what this plan looked like internally.

I'm sure BMW could make a case where between 1) not needing to manufacture non-heated seats anymore improves manufacturing efficiencies and costs and 2) the people paying for the subscription brings in enough revenue that BMW can sell

I suspect one reason why this flopped so heavily with consumers is because heated seats are a well-established luxury feature, in which consumers clearly see a line between the hardware costs and the upgrade price. When you eliminate that l

AOL offered the ability to connect to it through a 3rd-party internet provider. I did this for probably two or three years before finally giving up on AOL. By that time, the web had evolved quite a bit and AOL's content and communities

I mean we've cured a lot of types of cancer in mice, have reversed aging, etc. Are there actually research groups throwing the kitchen sink at mice and seeing how long they can make them live?

I have very fond memories of starting my music journey with trackers back in the 90's, but moving Scream/Impulse Tracker to Fruity Loops (as it was called at the time) was such a massive level up in terms of functionality and usab

Every season seems beyond insane. However, let's say you make some common mistake like leaving the engine filled with gas during the winter (assuming you're in such a climate). How would you go about getting it fixed? Assume the c

You're going to find a lot of (completely valid) advice on both sides -- bill by hour and bill by project. Out in the wild, there are a ton of factors that are going to make that advice either good or bad. For example, the book, Millio

This is adding considerable effort and weight to the process. The alternative is just running the experiment, which would take 10 minutes to set up, and see the results. The A/B test will help measure the qualitative finding in quantit

I don't think these examples are bad. From a clarity standpoint, where you have multiple people looking at your experiments, the first one is quite bad and the second one is much more informative. Requiring a user problem, proposed sol

With random bucketing happening at the global level for any test, the proper thing to do is to take any segments that show interesting (and hopefully statistically significant) results that differ from the global results and test those segm

The Rivian truck has no appeal to me. I don't think its design is that appealing and the bed is too small. It's more comparable to the smaller trucks than it is to the incumbent 1/2 ton market. The Cybertruck is a viable repl

It will be interesting to see the new price. It was something like $40,000 when it was first announced. Other EV trucks are nearly twice that. I can’t imagine Tesla being able to keep it that low. I know the design is polarizing but it give

I doubt the real number believing that is half the public, or even half the voting public. Certainly a fair number, maybe not the majority, but at least a sizable chunk, of Republicans don't believe the stolen election theories.

Stewart Copeland's drumming is also very syncopated and he won't stay on a backbeat very long, if at all. Plus, in addition to actual time changes, he can play over/under the bar, implying a time change while actually staying

This was an rear-seat overhead DVD player, not a console one. Although, I probably would have been better off wiring to the head unit instead. At the time, I still had the factory one in there so it's not quite as expandable and more c
