AWS is basically just rebranded open source on a centralized admin dashboard, there's an infographic somewhere breaking it down. True genius is always making someone else's blood and sweat into a package that gracefully solves a b

You can't see the admin dashboards or the cac/ltv numbers, round after round doesn't show up unless there's real growth happening.

The vaccine to senior citizens is a game changer here. If successful, it'll cut deaths by over 90% at which point safety protocols can be drastically loosened.

Nope, built a leading recruiting platform. You probably have a profile already.

Don't worry so much about the role, just make sure you're working under/with someone who'll get the best out of you. Having a good manager is the single most important factor to success and happiness at work. (I've

This is the best idea I've seen all year. You can make it so that every website is fully searchable and the data easily viewable/extractable. Set up the marketplace for user created plugins, the possibilities are endless. I would

Can't think of a product they've fucked up more with every iteration than Maps. Could argue Search here but Maps has been absurd. It started around the time they were pushing Material design and hasn't stopped since then.

Scarcity = value only when the underlying asset is actually an asset i.e. it produces something or can be used to purchase goods & services. Bitcoin is pure mania, it's completely worthless and enables the worst of the worst people

Please take my advice if you want this thing to last. Add payment/subscription support for writers. Take on substack directly.

Mukesh does nothing if he can't be a monopoly. He will allow thousands to succeed or fail under him, but nobody will participate without paying their tax.

I can't believe all the crypto hype has led us to bogus "defi" ponzis instead of a widely adopted protocol for transport and delivery that cuts out these middlemen idiots. Oh and ticketing too, venues and artists pay an absur

Nope, they benefit from the systemic robbery of your time and attention while giving you almost no value in return.

I do in $20 or less what costs $800 there. Americans pay probably $200 of that $800 and think "oh insurance covered it" when really they just payed 10x the price. The US is so full of morons they must love being ripped off or some

You should do a course in Automata Theory. Check out cs154.stanford.edu I used the book "Language, Proof, and Logic" which was also excellent. These courses will formalize concepts and allow you to apply them much better than rand

India figured this out years ago. Launched a domestic government Visa alternative called RuPay and also launched BHIM - an interface where everyone gets an email address like payment address and can send/receive directly. Both have tra

Everyone knows google is "better" software. Just like employees are promoted to one level above their potential, companies always push the envelope one step too far when pushing for growth/monetization. Google has been pushin

VCs are not necessarily wealthy at all. Only partners get real equity share (carry) and those can take 10+ years to return if at all. The 1% management fee gives most employees like a normal tech salary, which after cost of living and taxes

Cold fact - America is amazing to you if you're wealthy. They're still slave owners and if you don't know that you're wealthy, then sorry but you're the slave.

This is the kind of bullshit solution that results in class action lawsuits paying millions of people $5 each (only the lawyers win) A better idea would be to give each user equity in the company. An even better idea would be give that equi

Let's put aside originality for now. I think with a few small deep structural changes, you can get 80% of the way there. I would have all posts require a tagged context, let's call it a topic (in reality it'd be multi facet

If Twitter has taught us anything, it's that everyone should not have an equal voice and an equal platform. A person or company's reach or audience should be a function of 1) what they're talking about and 2) what credibili

I'd suggest building a sign up flow that captures info about candidates. The thing that's valuable here isn't your curation or the jobs, it's the candidates.

Would love to see more people who haven't already profited from the evil they currently attack. Roger McNamee is another case. These guys make a shitload of blood money, get guilty and think that writing a blog post absolves everythin
