Red flags: you only have 40 people and consider some c-level; most of your spend is on marketing content that is fleeting (no lasting value); with as many people in marketing as product, it seems like you want it to work more than it actually works.
Say goodbye to everyone not in product and focus on “marketing content” that shows how to effectively use the product. Maybe keep one marketer to do this.
Lawsuits like this just make sense. You can't train a model that makes you money with content you don't own without paying the content owner. What am I missing?
You could do this, or you could use the distractions as a practice for ignoring the distractions. This is quite a powerful practice for improving your ability to focus on what matters, in and outside the web.
There might be more but this is the one I remember:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40481808 The gist is Cloudflare has undocumented traffic limits. If above a sales person will push you into an enterprise plan. Then if you go higher you’re told to upgrade again. Nobody knows what the limits are and the sales person will not tell you either. One user wrote “From personal experience I know that 10TB per month is like 30k/year”.
kapa has a nice dashboard where you can select what you want to include in the RAG backend (docs, code, forums, discord...). They also do some things with showing you what users are asking, the responses and ratings, and being able to make corrective actions (?)
I saw a dev tools company poking around on a video call at one point, don't have access myself
I love how this response starts practical and then directs the heart of the matter. I think my approach falls somewhere in-between.
When reading a paper book, I use underlining for individual sentences I want to remember and an extended bracket for a paragraph I want to remember.
Next to the underlined or bracketed text, I'll add a checkmark, star, heart, or exclamation point.
The checkmark means it's worth remembering. The star means it's really worth remembering. The heart means it's something I already know and love to see again. The exclamation point means it's funny or surprising, though I don't necessarily need to remember it.
When I finish the book, I review all the text that's been marked. This helps me remember what's meaningful to me.
Thanks for sharing your own one. I like that visual part of it a lot, I did use wavy underlines, but sometimes it goes too messy) Anyway, with these small signs I come up with a question: how often do we think in the pictures dimension of the text parts that we find appealing, smart or charged?
"'The honeymoon phase of generative AI is over,' the company said in its 2024 Generative AI Global Benchmark Study."
The company here is Lucidworks who performed the study, and probably has some ulterior motive. Usually studies like this are marketing collateral, not legitimate studies.
I think generative AI is just getting started. I'm not a fan of it, but that doesn't mean I'm in denial like Lucidworks seems to be. Yes, it's just getting started.
I love how SETI got free marketing through the movie Contact (1997). They even have a promo video with Morgan Freeman on their homepage! If I was a scientist, I'd be all over this.
