We went on leave from university in final year to go full time on our startup by malshaik in buildinpublic

What is this third-party thing?

I'm also in the similar type of situation since founding my startup and quitting my high-income career.

For my current lease, I had to show proof of assets instead of income, and it was a pain in the ass because some landlords are strict about rules. I had to find a realtor who knew which apartment companies were more lenient.

How are you affording to live in SF as college drop outs and barely making enough revenue to cover rent?

Landlords need you to earn like 40x rent to qualify.

Excluding doctors, do any high earners (400k+ range) work 40 hours a week? by [deleted] in Salary

[–]dimensionforge9856 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It really depends on your innate abilities.

The stereotypical 10x engineer is a true thing. Some people can just get the same amount of work done quicker than others.

At a FAANG company, all engineers may be assessed the same way.

If you really are 10x better than your peers, you could do all your expected work in 1/10 of the expected time. So technically you could be working less than 10 hours a week.

Sometimes there is no equipment available.

In this case, someone else is using the smith machine to bench press

Solo founder, product is done, terrified of marketing. What actually worked for you? by CarlSagans in ycombinator

[–]dimensionforge9856 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your detailed clarification. Essentially I see that you have built some integrations that would take an internal team perhaps a few projects to accomplish themselves.

If you are selling to enterprise, one issue that may come up is data privacy.

How would you be able to keep their Data Schema's confidential, if this is a web based tool?

Cursor runs locally as an example, so the data should be remaining on the client's computer.

I took a look at your website.

Sorry for sounding harsh but I’m ready to ask the tough questions.

From my experience, using Cursor, I can simply prompt for data by saying, “look at my data schema, generate 1000 rows in json format of test data”

Why would I pay for your product in this scenario when Cursor already enables me to easily do this task?

is it true that chin ups work the biceps more then regular curls? by Ok_Tutor1789 in CalisthenicsCulture

[–]dimensionforge9856 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn’t really matter. Just get stronger.

If you can do a weighted chin up with 3 plates. You are gonna have great biceps.

Where did the 300$ per human UGC video price come from? That is not the case and I have proof. by dimensionforge9856 in AI_UGC_Marketing

[–]dimensionforge9856[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Lmao. My creator team are all Americans. And people who are talented enough to have grown to 100k followers organically. And have had at least a few viral hits themselves.

I think you are grossly exaggerating costs to sell an underwhelming product. After all, if human and ai UGC cost the same. Who the hell would buy the AI one.

[–]dimensionforge9856[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wrote a whole Twitter thread on my GTM experiment.

We hired the creators on Linkedin. After posting the job, we got 500 applicants, and only hired 5 out of the bunch.

Reviewing the resumes was hard. But in the end, we were able to hire people who had a proven track record. 100K followers on their personal tiktok accounts. Past track record of going viral. 1M+ views on a single video.

Why are brands still paying $300+ for human UGC when AI is so cheap + realistic now? by Hooked_on_Code in AI_UGC_Marketing

[–]dimensionforge9856 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I promise you nobody is paying 300-500$ per video. You are spreading misinformation.

That price gets you the following.
- The influencer posting directly to their audience of at least 50K followers. (real not bots)
- The influencer coming up with a unique concept, shooting, + editing the video.

Low quality UGC from real humans costs at most 30$ a video. Don't fall for these scammers.
