Nudies jeans are worth the premium (ish) price, and have lifetime free repairs. Extremely comfortable too. Going on 5 years in my current pair

Pexels is still very free, and seems to be high quality.

People want to spend less time on a task. Whichever tool succeeds at this will win.

just use a canva template

Canva left the buy once affinity model untouched, and are an ethical company.

They're a desperate company on the decline

Try Canva whiteboards. You can embed an inf canvas into slides

True, but consider grid electricity prices increasing over those decades too.

I don't think that prevents people from bootstrapping a great product

I mean, TikTok and ChatGPT came up extremely quickly. BeReal grew rapidly. People can and still do build disruptive software.

This is so underrated. There's a huge need for a better Yelp

Not true as of late - there is a construction slowdown, so even lower grade houses in rural areas with no services are going for unattainable prices. 700k for Albury is insane. We have a supply issue.

Maybe the solution is to look for problems where human's imperfections are identifiable

> you lost out on a literal once in a lifetime opportunity

I don't think anyone can make claims like this, lots of people made the right decision by not buying into an inflated market with job instability around the corner. I think the correction is needed, any people who didn't overextend will be fine if they intend to stay put for 5-15 years.

In my experience it was less emotional than in person auctions I've attended. I knew my limit and stuck to it, there was no agent talking me into bidding higher.

There are new systems to bid online, and over the course of a week. Much less stressful, no emotion and heat of the moment bidding. Nothing wrong with open bidding, all about the techniques used in person.

A designed process, very efficient at extracting the maximum price out of a stressful situation. It's a sad state of affairs in Australia right now.

Would you be comfortable doing an intro? Looking for this exact skillset for an ambitious project

Yes, the x264 params are all useful. It's selecting the optimal combination for a given use case that presents a challenge. Vimeo's video quality (and therefore filesize) is much higher than FBs, because their use cases are completely different.

I spent about 1-2 years on this, built a ML model. Pretty deep problem, there's no clear winner in terms of OSS software to do this.

How'd you convince someone to let you?

Small, but some growing/large tech companies. Canva, and SafetyCulture are probably the highest growth, Atlassian is already public and doing very well. Google has a Sydney office, Uber has some engineers scattered around.

Hopefully the government realizes they need to incentive tech workers with company share tax schemes, and startup tax cuts.

I know a few roles going in some of these companies; Python, Java, JS, Infra. Reply with an email address and I'll send through some contacts.

Is this not timing the market? How do you calculate what is "high" and "low" - rolling average increasing 7% per year, compare current price to that expectation?

What made you do it?

And a variable fan depending on your speed? :P

Like all things in life, it's about balance so you don't become accustomed. Can't wait for the day I only have to cook when I want to; because automated, healthy, home-cooked meals are possible.
