There are two areas of technology I avoid these days -- blockchain and AI.

It may very well be to my own detriment (there is a lot of promise in either) but fortunately there are lots of interesting problems outside these areas and I can just treat the mention of either of those topics as red flags.

That said, I want to note that I have had good results with Stitchfix but that was due to entering professionally-taken measurements. I got even better results however, from a local to-order suit maker and bought the full suit there, but basic shirt(s) from Stitchfix

I also had a good experience with shirts, which is why I decided to give the trousers a try.

And yes, my measurements were also from a professional tailor. But the resulting trouser has (among other issues) been "corrected" to a 15cm shorter outside leg length, so I wonder if a professional vs. an amateur measuring it would have made much of a difference.

No startup is disruptive enough nowadays without 5G and IoT.

Add Quantum to the list.

My new startup uses machine learning built on Quantum Blockchain technology (patent pending).

I'll take my VC money now, please.
