Customers don't care about features.

Customers don't care about buzzwords.

Customers don't care about disruption.

Customers care about their problems and how your startup solves them.

[Marc Randolph @marcrandolph]

A coming wave of disruptive companies will be built by layering domain expertise over GPT3. The best of these will:

- solve complex problems, not just automate simple tasks.
- be exceptionally nimble - evolving as fast as the underlying AI does.
- use usage as a metric, not number of users.

There will be a lot of noise. Few will survive.

[Yann LeCun @ylecun]

Crypto bro: AI labs should stop publishing useless papers and make products that increase shareholder value.
Me: There would be no new product without the research published in those papers. New products aren't pulled out of thin air, unlike cryptocurrency value.

Some really cool (programming) tech that I think are underrated right now and that have proven very useful to me this year:

[Aditya Agarwal @adityaag]

Setting a *Techincal* Roadmap

Tis December and everyone is in the thick of annual planning. Yes, even startups

As a CTO, you should be coming up with an annual technology roadmap. Your CEO isn't going to do that for you.

Thoughts on how you can have it all for Christmas🧵 (1/)

After nearly 25 years, I’m publishing the Distributed Computing Manifesto in its entirety, an internal document from the early days of Amazon that transformed the architecture of our e-commerce platform. https://t.co/IKR5su3i1M

Different people have different default answers to "Can it be done?" OR "Can you do it?".

Some default answers/modes:
- It's too hard
- I don't know how
- Yes, will figure it out

There is a correct answer if you want to work at a startup (really any high growth environment)

Contemporary propaganda isn’t about convincing someone to believe something, but convincing them to doubt what they think they know.

What a time to be alive: collecting whale mucus via UAV! No doubt the first stage in a complex pipeline for data analysis or machine learning.

I’m probably the most negative person I know, so I tried my best to take note of small things that made me happy. I wasn’t planning on sharing them, but maybe you’ll realize that things like this made you happy this year too.

And this is how they tell you, You don’t need a fancy A12 bionic microprocessor to run a photo filter Apple! I mean come on... 1 trillion instructions to do this?

[Google Photos @googlephotos]

New to iOS, adjust the background blur and change the focus of your portrait mode photo.

Just pull up a portrait photo in Google Photos, click the editing icon to get to the editing menu, then tap it one more time to edit depth and focus.

Got to try this in my friends car and it's worth every single penny of $1000 price tag if you're not into Tesla! On top of it, It's open source and you can even visualize your telematics data! Give it a try and let me know if you need help to install it.
