Question for Eric, is there a way to ensure charging works with USB? Please don't make us carry yet another cable.
When 4o came out with its chain of thought, people thought this is it. And today, nobody really cares. Its just another LLM.
Same thing with this.
The other day I was writing some code to compute some geometric angles, and I was getting 2 different results for what I though was the same angle, but in fact I didn't realize that these angles should not be equivalent. No LLM was able to tell me the issue, they just said double check my work.
OpenAI is a $50B company that should be releasing serious products, the "scrappy hacker releasing a beta product that doesn't do much" as a defense doesn't apply.
I'd much rather them release early than not release at all. By your logic ChatGPT will still be in internal testing and the whole industry would be way behind where it is today
It was a good analysis but definitely longer than it should have been to communicate the came thing.
A glaring omissions is overlooking the origin of the term "woke" in the context it is being used today.
It was around 2010 as a rallying call for black folk to be aware of being taking for a fool. Then the Occupy Protests and Black Lives Matter came next and as usual it was hijacked by more savvy operators.
1.The 2020 protesters did not begin vandalizing property, but government infiltrated the protests by burning cars and maiming people.
2. The Obidient movement encompassed multiple sub movements of which a part of the #EndSARS was one of them. A vast majority of Peter Obi's supporters were not #EndSARS activists.
3. Elections in Nigeria are fraught with treacherous behavior so everyone suspects everything. It's important to be very careful with your communication. There is a lot of desperation in the land and so if in a position of information leverage, the responsible thing is to handle the privilege with care and transparency.
Were Nigerians (allegedly) the only ones making fraudulent applications? Why is it only Nigeria you could use as an example?
Perpetuating nasty cliché tropes lead to stereotyping. Perhaps, that's your intention or not, but I just need to inform you and your ilk, that anytime a Nigerian is unfairly discriminated against off or online, you contributed to it.
OP and respondents can you update your question and the answers to include mention the scale of the business in terms of traffic, customer served, revenue.
As part of my advisory business, I've seen a few companies tackling this in Africa. My biggest question has been, isn't this a "feature" than can be deployed by the existing Payroll companies?
These days we have a lot of Credit As A Service companies. Why can't a Payroll service connect to them and provide this service as an add on.
To summarize my question: can your innovation get distribution before the Payroll services get (this) innovation?
Or wouldn't you inadvertently have to encroach into that space eventually?
Or do you see yourself extending towards the credit side of things?
I think limiting the word count would help. Say 250 words.
The format is ok, sometimes it seems a lot of unnecessary details are added. This encourages skimming through thereby making important aspects vulnerable to skipping.
Again, with the reality that there will be more startups launching, limiting the word count will be helpful and make people read more launches.
I was already typing this before your comment articulated it excellently.
Dang, I am assuming how people see comments is randomised? So the part 2 of the comment (those that did not make it will all have an equal chance to be seen).
Assuming it is not asking for too much customisation, these summary threads can go down much slower than the usual one person Launch HN.
