As an Australian living in Canada, I want to say unalike Canada, the term "Province" feels weird to be used here. Australia refers to its divided regions as "States".

As a user of this product frustrated by the onboarding process, I’d be keen to chat to you guys! Dropping a note.

Anyone got any info on how this has progressed? Cool project.

Interesting! I think upstairs we would struggle but the basement slab runs cooler, I’m pretty sure it would handle this pretty fine. I’ll check it out, thanks!!

Chris, great and i love that you're working on this. We need more heatpumps in this world! Any chance there's a solution coming for people with hydronic systems? We have a house in rural Ontario that has in-floor hydronic in the b

Funny your example is hvac, i recently made an “instant quote form” for a friend who works in hvac (interiorclimatesolutions.com) I agree though, i feel like lead gen is how this has to pay for itself. I’ve been resisting that path but it f

Hey there, I'm Andrew, thanks for taking the time to check this post out. None of this feels super new, I've done the startup thing before (Last good outcome was an exit of Checkout51.com to News Corp), so I am used to the rollerc

You’re totally correct in saying this but here’s some unrequited advice: never speak this way to your significant other!

Only criticism i have is i ended up on a search form and after submitting to it the page reloaded and the results were below the fold. Otherwise yep, very fast and clean.

+1 to this, I can think of a few places id order for but i couldnt figure out how. Did i miss the link? Looks like it refers to "custom orders" but i wasnt sure how that works.

Launched, where? Nice try, Google.

Also good luck signing up and making your first API call. OpenAI made that very easy, Google no doubt will make it a total pain.

Oh I’m very aware. I’ve raised over $60m in my career to date. I wish the world was different, but it isn’t and you’re right, the math for them doesn’t work in other circumstances. It’s hard trying to bootstrap but it’s depressing trying to

Had a chat with a big time VC the other day about a project, told “I’m not sure this is venture fundable”. Things like this make me think just because I’m not willing to lie and sell the hype that the true sentiment here is “you’re not vent

You raise a good point about using fine tuning this way, honestly from the documentation i struggled to see how i could apply it to some situations but i think i just need to dig deeper. My use cases are essentially getting data about prope

Yes and no. These personalities are pretty basic, you really cannot add someone’s lives experiences in a 4K token limit.

It kind of does with the prompts but i feel that this is actually a higher level config of some kind. The idea that you can encompass a personality in a prompt of 4K tokens and leave room for the reply really underestimates how complex pers

I want personas. Your racist uncle, my woke sister, your on the fence father, and my happy mother. The reality is these each will answer questions in totally different ways, lies will dramatically vary and as much as it’s kind of weird to s

I think there’s a difference here. There are cases I’ve found for minor manual tasks, things like real estate listings with some basic programmatically created prompts containing details of a listing. Imo the largest holdback is context. I

Yeah i guess the comment wasn’t well formed enough, i wasn’t suggesting sea plays no part, sea likely won’t be the main battleground, but it of course will be part of supply lines and protecting supply lines. I felt that some diversion of v

The reality is the next war won’t be won by sea. In fact, even the last war wasn’t won by sea. Air is the battle ground, we should be diverting funds from sea to air and it’s very possible accepting a little rust is a deliberate choice.

Interesting. Some of this data isn’t easy to access for me in Canada but yep, they’re in a similar space. Funny because I’m from Australia, but never transacted property over there.

Real estate and yep SaaS, although I kind of want to offer a pay per use model along side it. Just feels complicated to do both, i'm personally a little exhausted by the number of subscriptions in my life.

I really appreciate reading this, i lay in bed this morning feeling all the doubts the author is experiencing. I’ve spent about 3 months on a new product, i spent all day yesterday trying to figure out how to sell it effectively. I met with

Yeah living in Canada and having only outdoor parking, no way i could live without it. Also it’s just cheaper: electricity is much cheaper over night and if i have to charge 24x7 I’m paying much more.
