Repost: can I ask how you use PubNub with Agora? As in what specific thing does PubNub do to help you communicate state information that you can't do by writing to a (say firebase) backend.

Yeha I’ve noticed structural programs that help women, especially at the undergrad level. And the grad level (where people mentioned operated) it’s highly advisor/manager dependent. At the academy, each PI run their own independent fi

She gave a talk at my school once, she was invited by my then advisor. This was in 2017 right after she left MSR. We had a brief change, and even back then you can tell she’s not into kowtowing to the patriarchy. It’s quite hard for ambiti

In so far as I can tell Pubnub does not do A/V streaming. Instead they partner with others such as Vonage and Agora: https://www.agora.io/en/blog/agora-and-pubnub-collaborate-to... . They're quite explici

Yeah i recall that essay. But getting a startup financed as a founder is a different story altogether. When you're asking people to invest on faith ( regardless of your MRR or what have you ), politics if back in the picture.

ha! I remember seeing you around the building. To be fair I really enjoyed the subject, it's just art is soulful in a way that other subject can never be for me. I imagine it's the same for music for a lot of people. I still code

Thank you! I want the same, but sadly consumer culture drives so much of the U.S. (assuming you're in the U.S). And because consumer preference is so arbitrary, there's an irreducible amount of arbitrariness that flows through the

The decade also makes a difference. When Fb and Twitter was launched, "blogging" was still a side passion thing, and the notion of an "influencer" hasn't really been invented yet, Reality TV was just beginning and p

This comment really resonated with me, I found myself in this exact situation at 25, in a "very prestigious and selective place" for AI nonetheless. It took me a couple years to realize the smart people are just playing the game,

Out of curiosity when did you join CH? I find the the app differs by month, it was good for me for exactly one month. I think the predominate culture shifts so much as waves of people join, and they're not very good at allocating peopl

This is a very insightful point. There is already a culture meming the imaginary April rooms where the "rich and powerful" gather to do insider-deals. You see this with all the get-rich-quick rooms, "thought-leader TedX"

That's not necessarily true. The difference between a brilliant postdoc working in a hot field who never made it and a tenured PI is the willingness to play the game. So if the game is filled with scammers exaggerating the value of the

Which biz school did you go to if you don't mind me asking? From my experience, it's not that they believe in those stories, it's that they behave as if they believe in it. MBAs is about training pliant middle managers who

Could I ask you why/how it started taking off in Europe? Was there a specific big name who joined, pulling everyone in? For example, when Joe Budden joined C.H. in early October, he mobilized many people in the ATL music scene to join.
