Interview problem: prepare a 45 minute presentation (10-15 minutes for questions). Timebox to 2 hours. Subject & biz: something brand-new to you. BTW you don't get the job unless it's good.

What do you actually time box it to?

the one time I use IKEA USA to get some storage boxes delivered, and they don't pack them with anything (at all, just loose) - I remember why I love amazon returns / customer service. Why did I do this to myself?

Amazing how Wayfair.com layoffs are mostly targeting remote, regardless of performance; it seems like remote is still not understood, so it’s an easy segment to target. This seems short sighted if it’s not based on performance.

I made the mistake of trying to do a fresh install of Windows 11 today. It's such a backwards experience compared to Mac, or even Linux.

I'm literally stuck. Feels like having an original Ender 3 vs a BambuLab printer; endless googling for how to do something 'properly' when…

Wow, deleted a bunch of backups from Wasabi Technologies months ago - just noticed they've been billing me ~$7/month for 0 bytes/usage. Their own pricing calculator says this should be $0, and they won't refund it. What a scam. I've deleted my account.

Def better, and likely cheaper…

1/ The most mid curve take: onchain treasuries will bring in the next bull.

If RWAs work at all, we have to offer assets that you can't buy anywhere else: war bonds, Tom Brady's used socks, reactor-grade uranium, and African solar farms.

Institutions are not coming for T-bills.

We turned off our self-serve signups and replaced our freemium plan with a $200 per month floor and it has generated... a reaction.

A thread with some thoughts on why we did this and what the impact has been so far to our business

Yesterday, headlines circulated X about a San Francisco woman being mowed down by a Cruise self-driving taxi, causing traumatic injuries.

Zig build.zig.zon you can pretty easily add some github code. e.g. github.com/lun-4/zigdig

1. pick your commit hash (prolly not master, as that changes the sha256, breaking your build)
2. use this url with your user / repo / hash github.com/lun-4/zigdig/a…
3. either make…

Today, I’m thrilled to announce our $35M Series B led by Accel, along with Sequoia Capital, 01A and some incredible leaders and product folks.

YC has an investor database that collects data about investors' behavior from all the thousands of startups we've funded. It's one of many similar features of YC that most founders don't know about till they need it. The lowest investor rating is 'if you must.'

This happened in San Francisco yesterday at 7:18pm. According to witnesses, “all the occupants fled the scene.”

Progressives/socialists want people to believe autonomous vehicles are dangerous. But they are OK with car thieves and violent criminals. 🤨
