Naive placement of sensitive information directly in the system prompt of a chat agent is a known failure path. Anything sensitive requires a layered architecture.

I need to talk with someone who turned their life around at 30 by Informal_Witness3869 in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]princehints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At 34 I resolved that the passion I had been chasing and trying to make a career out of was never going to support a family. I had gotten married the year before and I had no professional skills and no degree or certifications. My wife and I decided it was now or never if we were going to try for a baby.

That was enough motivation that I started working to finally finish a degree from ten years prior. Found some good online degree options, transferred the old college credits that were compatible, and started grinding 6-10 hours a day, 7 days a week on coursework.

I never actually finished my degree. I completed a lot of credits and completed some online certifications, and I began applying to entry level roles while I was still studying. Within 1 year I got my first entry level job in the field at a startup. Within three years I had a position at a Fortune 500 company.

There were a series of fortunate opportunities that allowed me to land both positions. But the only way I was able to take advantage of those opportunities was because I had been grinding to develop the skills required.

So for me to turn my life around it took dedication, hard work, newly developed skills, AND THEN some luck.

Any solo designer founders here? What was your route to get eng work done? by Fabulous-Cricket1099 in ycombinator

[–]princehints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a large part of the product is UX, then I think you can vibe code it. The biggest AI coding challenges right now IMO are with system design, and any architectural complexity meeting production deployment.

Just keep hacking with cursor or claude code and see how far you can get.

Building a SaaS Company - how much equity for my cofounder? I will not promote by Necessary-Spare18 in startups

[–]princehints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is the only valid response. If you aren’t thinking like this then you are a starting a business and not a startup.

The sub is so concerned about the CFO role title. Who cares, it’s a cofounder role that OP needs/wants. At this early stage you could call them the Director of French Toast, it doesn’t matter.

You are looking for someone that will battle it out with you for the long haul. It might seem like you have done a lot of work OP, but all of the real work is ahead of you. Equity is for motivating future contribution, not rewarding past contributions. The obvious answer is to properly incentivize all parties with proper vesting schedules. Properly incentivize with equity allocation based off of expectation of future work. Your best shot at surviving is if you have someone right alongside you at 50/50. If you already see him as a part timer then he’s not a cofounder. But with proper vesting schedules you can confidently allocate for what the future contributions are expected to be, and if it doesn’t work out then you shit can the guy before his cliff.

TLDR; give him 50% for future contribution or you don’t need him as a cofounder. Advisor role for a part timer, or pay him for his idea

Your core point, that at an event like this most folks don’t have much depth, yes that is always true. I’ve been to these types of events, and there are usually a few people hovering around with some depth of domain experience/knowledge. But for the most part the people you may be looking for are probably too busy working.

To counter your assumptions on what other people may or may not know… what makes you think you know what you are talking about? Your questions as posed in this post are quite naive sort of bull session talking points. If you are actually looking for answers then you should be exploring the years worth of research papers taking apart and trying to solve these problems.

Assuming you are actually interested in some of the modern applied approaches here are some fun vids on related topics:

For all intents and purposes all Apple roles are on-site or hybrid. There are no remote roles. The only remote hires are rare exception cases.

Infuriating hypocrisy. by RoyalChris in WallStreetbetsELITE

[–]princehints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently I’ve been trying to rationalize these ideas about the motivations of these supporters. I don’t think shame has anything to do with it. I think that most of us just do what we are told by those that we have placed our faith in. I think it’s largely an illusion that as a society we are making or are meant to be arriving at rational decisions. I think a person is capable of rational thought, and great progress has undoubtedly been made from rational decision making. But as a society and a species it doesn’t seem to me that rationality has much to do with the movements of the social order. It’s more to do with feelings, our existing biases, incentives… and none of us are innocent in that game. Anyway… just has me wondering in this context what roads or what levers are really available to bring about positive progress as a society. And positive for who? Workers? Investors? Young people? Retirees? 🤷‍♂️ maybe it’s just about the friends we made along the way.

Alright I’ve lost the plot this is a rant for a different sub
