Just took one small step, but it’s actually a GIANT leap for the entire ecosystem!

It’s not about the footprint; it’s about the scalability and the vision. So proud to be part of this mission-driven journey.

That's a great idea, kinda like the Civilization game series' "tech tree" concept. Thanks for checking out the site :)

Working on a free alternative to Masterclass - compiled from YouTube clips!

Currently have two binge-able mini courses on How to Start a Startup (could be relevant to folks in here)

Here it is: https://opencademy.com/

Hey thanks for checking it out!

I will add more subjects in the future, hopefully based on feedback - would you like to see more Business courses or more fun/creative ones (e.g. Home Cooking 101)?

AI might have been a disaster here, I think.

I agonized for a long time about which clips should go in vs. which should be left out.

But it's subjective. For example, if I want to add a basic cooking course - who should I choose to be the authority on cutting vegetables? Ideally, I'd want a professional in that domain to do the curation.

I curated the clips (but didn't create them).

Criteria was: is the person a successful startup founder? And does the clip contain practical advice?

The idea: what if you could get a “Masterclass”-style experience, but free, using existing YouTube content?So I made OpenCademy — right now it only has two quick startup "courses" (101 & 102), built from curated YouTube clips, all embedded and organized into modules.It’s still early (no accounts, no backend), but it’s bingeable.Would love thoughts on whether this concept feels useful or...

If anyone else is planning to sell ice to Eskimos, I just saved you an API call:

- IceEskimos.com

- ArcticIceCo.com

- ChillyChillers.com

- ChillInn.com

- FrostBites.com (my favorite)

This is so fun, but also not good for my domain buying addiction. Great job!
