Please save this link so you don’t use it!

Outcomes of publicly funded research should obviously be paywalled, so avoid this link to avoid democratizing research and pushing science forward.

[Mushtaq Bilal, PhD @MushtaqBilalPhD]

Sci-Hub is an evil website that pirated 85M+ research papers and made them freely available

And now they've added AI to their database to make Sci-Bot.

It answers your questions using latest, full-text articles.

But DO NOT use it. We should all try to make billion-dollar academic publishers richer.

I'm putting the link below so you know how to avoid it.

@fdotinc and Canopy have reminded me what matters most. Just ship.

We’ve heard from so many founders building breakthrough devices on how they need to find the right early adopter physicians to get to market.

Now you can in minutes instead of days or weeks.

Think of it as yellow pages for doctors, find the right surgeons performing the right procedures: https://t.co/kFLOC6c10U

Lots of great discussions at the MXV summit, started strong with @marceloclaure talking about his crazy (and crazy inspiring) life story

Thanks for putting it together @Markgher

@abemurray @radicalai Just DM’ed you!

@im_roy_lee @nikunj I really didn’t mean to both sides this while also sounding like chatgpt damn

[Manu Stephen @ManuJoinedLate]

@im_roy_lee @nikunj Being noticed isn’t the only hard thing left, users who love the product are (i.e. pmf)

Funding didn’t always go to the most launch views but VCs write rules and founders rewrite them

Retention def wins out but if the entry ticket to earn pmf is survival, money helps

@tbpn I like that the taller technology brother didn’t go for Marc, that would get too uncanny

[Manu Stephen @ManuJoinedLate]

@operationdanish @redwriter @andromedasurg will make it happen imo
