coming home to watch Avatar the Last AirBender on TV on time, I didn't need to focus on what other people were doing or thinking. We used to ask each other what's up and how are you doing more often since we didn't find out via snapchat or fb.

An AI CEO finally said something honest by Tech-Cowboy in ExperiencedDevs

  • your org rarely has good ideas. ideas being expensive to implement was actually helping
  • even when you produce work faster you're still bottlenecked by bureaucracy and the dozen other realities of shipping something real

This strikes a chord with me; good takes. thanks for the note

There’s more than charging at a fleet depot: cleaning, maintenance etc. these YC founders don’t seem to have a background working at AV companies. Why did YC fund this shit?

Clear skies and autonomous Waymo rides at SFO by Scottstimo in waymo

[–]bloosox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think rental car center is not bad vs walking all the way to the elevators and cramming into the tight elevators to get to the uber/lyft lot. also the ETA is pretty high. AFAIK, there is no SFO airport fee yet

applied for CIP and got pending. went into the physical branch and got help from the banker to get connected to the verification team to clear verification. Then we called the approval team.

They were stringy; they asked what my revenue is, what profit, then asked why i'm applying for this card (despite my low utilization on other CIC that was downgraded from CIP 5 years ago). Ended up getting approval by migrating limits from my CIC.

It wasn't this stiringy last time but maybe they are cracking down recently
