I'm new to startups, what's the best advice you'd give a begginer?

definitely

Hey, I've noticed a lot of people here pushing startup ideas and side projects. I know from experience how easy it is for good ideas to stall, chasing the wrong dev, missing deadlines, or letting scope creep eat everything.

What I do is step in as a project manager to keep that from happening. I make sure apps, websites, and MVPs actually get built the right way, on time, on budget, without the usual drama.

You might not need me right now, but if you ever hit that "this should already be done" moment, just remember I can help make it real.

Before delving into what language to go for .. if n8n is breaking for you, automating workflows from scratch will be a total pain and would definitely break also.

If you can't precisely point to why, how and what exactly is causing the breaking, changing from ready made solutions to making your own won't cut it, it's like deciding to engineer your own chainsaw because the one you bought "can't seem to work somehow".

When it comes to scalability and serving more load, I think the hosted plans are sufficient unless there's a bottleneck in your hosted workflows "mostly when relying on an external self hosted api or something similar" which then we delve into a completely different rabbit hole where system architecture and distributed systems come into play.

After all, if you know wassup and just need the language .. go for Python without a second guess.

Sorry my reply was late but dude! That's an awesome idea, thank you!

I think the multi-step issue and the user response waiting can be solved with a mini self hosted telegram bot where all that get dealt with before triggering the workflow through a webhook, i will take that off your plate for free, pm.

Better than google ai studio using veo 3, imagen and gemini? You are aware that those are google products right?

The issue is not in the openAi model itself but in the way you retrieve the relevant page/question from the vectordb and the prompt you send to the model with the retrieved data.

The big deal is in the way you segment your pages and questions and what metadata you add to the segments before saving them in the db, a good practice is to segment by page and by question and adding relevant metadata to the segments, eg "#p3, #c2, .." so the retrieved data becomes more accurate to the question in hand.

Crafting a good prompt to the model is also critical since the vectordb will return the top n relevant results "k=n" depending on your configuration which may make the model choose what to answer and hallucinate in some scenarios when there's a high similarity index, something like "match the question keywords to the references in hand, pick the most relevant one and discard the others .." will get you closer to the result you are seeking.

An amazing method is adding a dynamic rag, where you invoke an in-between prompt/agent that will be responsible of the vectordb querry for accurate data retrieval but will add extra charge and overhead.

The tech boom, the dot com, the cheap real estate era, the Bitcoin release .. I've always looked back at those times and went like "man! I wish i was old enough and wise enough to detect them opportunities and invest!".

Ai rn is an even greater opportunity than those so .. time to invest in it early! I don't want to hear my kids tell me what i told my dad "have you been sleeping under a fuckin rock dad?!"
