Re:The Intelligence Age on Monday September 23, 2024 @01:10PM (#41628281)
The most interesting bit I find is the time period mentioned until super-intelligence: “thousands of days (!)” aka 6-9 years or more?

With the current hype wave it feels like we’re almost there but this piece makes me think we’re not.

To me it seems like an alternative take on e/acc. It’s either become a fatalist or just do stuff. “F it we ball” vs it is what it is.
Re:I wish I didn't miss the '90s-00s internet on Wednesday September 11, 2024 @02:50PM (#41514200)
I was a child really so it’s not simple to differentiate between nostalgia and “real” world for me.

Dial-up connection, ICQ, and 10mb files left to be downloaded through the night were my connection to the world.

I so badly wanted that future of the Internet, but somehow we ended up in a place where corporations ate it all.

Is it nostalgia, or is there something more? Who knows at this point.

I’m 30.

Re:Ask HN: How do you organize work as a solo developer? on Saturday September 07, 2024 @03:22PM (#41475831)
Exactly my approach after years of trying various things. Midwit meme applies: just do-complexity-just do.

I like simplicity! Looking forward to self-hosted solution as well.
Re:Ask HN: What are you working on (August 2024)? on Saturday August 24, 2024 @07:25PM (#41342765)
Building several products:

https://teamsays.com — Team-Changing Anonymous Feedback where you can set up a private channel for understanding what’s going on in your teams.

https://usemanor.com — AI concierge for real estate brokers.

https://joinsymbol.com — Manipulate text with translations, JSONs, and other revisions with AI. Provides an API for using in your apps, etc. CMS on top AI basically.

https://fullmoonchat.com – AI esoterics.

My current strategy is to go inch deep, mile wide. I don’t want all of my eggs in one basket any more. Basically doing a VC model using my portfolio of products.

Holler at me if you want to chat about these products or if you have any ideas you want to build.

Re:Show HN: Made an anonymous feedback app TeamSays on Sunday August 11, 2024 @05:10PM (#41219336)
Thank you, you bring a very good point. I’m sure we’ll see more channels like TeamSays in the near future as Gen-Z goes into workforce/senior positions. From my perspective future is transparency oriented, and leadership embracing it before others can attract talent they need.

Hi HN, it’s Kaz. I’m a dev/solo founder here with my startup TeamSays [0], which is an anonymous feedback channel for improving workplace experience.
