@pitdesi I found out about Instinct since someone’s agent signed up for a small startup / side project I’ve been running. Only a handful of users, and an AI agent already found it and signed up.

I’d love to know how it found me so I could encourage more of that.

@Empty_America Depends where you are. In a city, people assume you can call a tow truck. In the middle of nowhere, some genuinely remote places, you’ll peobably find people willing to help.

In-between, in the small towns, there are a lot of drug problems, and you never know who you’ll meet.

@jeff_weinstein Customer service chats, which are usually just another company’s agent instead of a real person anyway.

@JessicaGenetics There are too many product managers.

There are too many product managers, part 1.

@manishipsfast Doesn’t this incentivize not clicking on anything on the site?

@___frye Weird, I was going through old project ideas today to see what might be easier now with AI, and this is there from 2015. Seemed like a good idea for collaborative note taking during a coding bootcamp at the time.

@staysaasy Or they stop having new ideas

@thisisphilpeker @lennysan @gowithengine DMs don’t appear to be open.

@jakemintz @lennysan Any flexibility on remote locations for the Senior PM roles? I’m in the PNW as well, but the infrastructure role is potentially a good fit.

@dok2001 @QuinnyPig It may be an oversimplification, but appears true if you’re in any specific industry.

The more you niche down, the more it looks like everyone is building the same thing.

Everyone in travel is building similar things. In corp travel, the similarities are even stronger.

@ptrschmdtnlsn Seems like a good reason to work in consumer products instead of enterprise software. It’s hard to convince people you have any idea what you’re talking about unless they can see it.

[Daniel Montgomery @Danmontgomery_]

@ptrschmdtnlsn I learned this when starting a watch company 12 years ago.

“I’m building a custom watch.”

“Oh cool”

(Shows the finished product months later)

“Woah! You made this!?”

@dhh Time to find an alternative to Anthropic. You won’t miss it.

@ctjlewis I’ve been tracking startup funding this year as part of a job search, and decided to map it out. I’m using SEC data directly, so it occasionally tells me about stealth companies before they’re public.

I've been tracking startup funding for most of this year as part of a job search, and decided to map it all out to see where the money is going. Check it out: https://t.co/ciyWB4n3AD

@spakhm Some of the people working on automated testing for voice AI agents came from the self driving car world.

@PandaSoumy11445 @ohitstarik It’s likely similar to shooting raw, clicking “auto” in Lightroom, and saving as a JPG. You get rid of a lot of the HDR and over-processing with that workflow.
