I've built a simple wrapper for the Breachdirectory API. They give me access to the password hint for any leaked passwords (eg: 4535**).Would it be helpful if I shared those password hints in an email. Maybe you'd want to replace those passwords. Only concern is spooking people when someone else puts in their email and they receive the message.
Hi, I'm looking to build my startup currently as a solo founder and am stuck on deciding which language/platform to build with.I have about 5-6 years of experience with Flask websites and a few months of experience in Django. Django does make a lot of the boilerplate stuff easy, but there's a learning curve with FormView, ListView etc. However the code is cleaner since I don't need to have...
I assume anyone who wants to startup is atleast a top 5% engineer. Otherwise its just a bad punt. You have to be terribly good to be in the startup biz
You have to be very very efficient. You understand why Heroku costs 3x of AWS. You understand that raising money is not necessary for every project. For most tourist entrepreneurs its just cargo culting.
But now I think I wanna spend a good 10 years in corporate before even thinking of doing anything else. Make that moolah first.
When things get really bad, smart people simply pack their bags and leave.
Politics is unpredictable and there's no time to waste arguing for free speech.
People have no idea why free speech is useful.
They just want free speech.

PG was high priest of what was once a secretive religion for people who liked productizing tech.
Over the years its become just another Sandhill VC firm.
I haven't heard of any big companies out of YC recently. Is it because PG left and the culture changed?
I didn't even think this was possible. Have people ever done this manually before? Like without AI?
The probabilities are completely uncertain. You just never know how big it can get or how likely it is.
If you are optimistic like I was, you "hope for the best" since that one guy did it right? In essence, you don't know how hard the problem is.
In the corporate world you do know the probabilities, so you get scared by it.
TL;DR: Once you know the true probabilities you'll know which is a better option
You have to be an L5 engineer at Google. And I know a guy earning $700k per year at 32-33 in ARM. Plus other VPs. Depends on your vantage point, but starting a startup is way harder. Personal experience here.
If pollution is still low, the country is not actually back to work yet
I think its $70 per month accounting for PPP, but even then the difference is massive
In terms of crisis, the medical system just doesn't scale. You think leaders were worried about running out of ventialtors?
No! You can start pumping them in hundreds of thousands if you really need it.
The problem is that you have only so many doctors and trained nurses to work with. Limited capacity. Training takes 10 years.
No scalability.
It doesn't matter where the tech is right now. The world will push 100% for whatever can be done via apps, sensors and unskilled workers.

I'm too inundated with this stuff!
Here's the reality I've experienced as a startup founder. Its not the holy truth, but its been my life and my experiences.
If you shoot an arrow even a few degrees off-center, it hits somewhere far from the board.
Similarly the decisions you take early on are so much more critical to your life.
As an Indian student these are all of the decisions you take:
Age 15: Science, Commerce, Arts
Age 17: Medical, Engineering
Age 18: Computer Science, Electrical, Mechanical, Civil engineering etc
Age 22: US Masters or Local Job
Guess what?
If you want to realistically be a millionaire by 37-38 you have to take 5 correct decisions in a row (Science, Engineering, CS, Masters).
You have to do 5 very difficult things to be a Google level engineer.
Even if you do four out of five correct after 20 years your life will be in a far lower orbit with respect to finances. Its sad but true.
This is why you should do your startup after you clear this early minefield of difficult decisions. Once you can comfortably have a good job at your whim. I'd advise people to startup only after 30.
And remember, one misstep and the outcome can be wildly different after 20 years!

When you zoom out the first graph, the exponential part starts looking linear
graph2: linear + slightly less linear + exponential
Oh wait, it is an exponential curve right? D'oh
