Otherwise people would write whatever comes to their mind: clickbait/misinformation without proper cross referencing/fact checking.
Instead of a writer writing a clickbait article / low quality SEO (written by someone off-shore) article in 5 minutes, they could generate an article with our AI (provided they give us quotes, context, etc.) within that same 5 minutes. The difference is that we can iterate on our models and integrate our cross referencing fact-checking algorithms to ensure we generate meaningful articles.
Pretty neat!
That looks cool! Personally I love the simplicity of both Sublime Text and Merge so I gravitate towards those (I don't really care/need about customization)
Ended up failing the elementary school test and was 1 out of 4 in the district who aced the middle school placement test to skip prealgebra (math 6 to algebra directly). Much of this can't be done nowadays because of common core.
By the time I went through precalc and calc at MV I realized maybe I should've taken a slower math sequence XD
Best of luck!
Tons of privilege-this and that (this is normal in the bay area, pretty sure a lot more schools have similar systems) but at the end of the day kids (like me) studied extremely hard for these placement tests.
I've witnessed that multiple times when I sneaked into some "exclusive" events in silicon valley.
In the long term, I suspect there may be a greater inclination towards remote work, not as much as this report suggests, but overall work at office is here to stay.
I need to go outside and have a physical seperation between work and home.
Another tidbit: Distribution kills a company, not the product.
Learn to sell (and make your product great) and everything will work out.
So I sent 100-200 personalized emails throughout a 4 month period to every single person I could find in the space. Eventually I got one and made a ton of connections just with that alone.
Now I'm also doing a startup and am talking with some big corporations just with getting to the right people and climbing my way to the top to sell my product.
Tyler Bosemany did a great talk about how to sell, i'd reccomend you watch it.
$150k in the grand scheme of things isn't much: YC knows you'll raise a lot more and much faster right after demo day if you need to.
Initially found this a few years ago when I was doing a "deep dive" on Cloudflare.
Interesting nonetheless!
I've heard that Uber ATG is barely staying afloat and Lyft is just pumping money just as a desperate attempt (their platform is much more powerful, which is what they're betting on).
