I was making $170k in biotech, doing operations. This job was not enjoyable and hard to quantify/describe. Basically, just putting out fires all day. I got laid off and biotech sucks right now. I'm prepared to retrain,…

I think I am interested in the convergence between healthcare and AI but I basically have no experience in either unless you count my time in biotech which I am not especially interested in continuing in. I see this as…

And have a lucrative career doing so?

I’m pretty sure that all crypto (hence the name) relies on encryption to run the block chain. Quantum computers will be able to easily break encryption. So how will this not be used to immediately control the blockchain?

For example, say you (1) work remotely, (2) have a side hustle and then (3) everything else. You could have 1 default computer and 2 virtual instances to keep things organized. Curious if anyone does this and if so, and…

I am not a developer, so I am looking for something simple where I can enter a series of URLs, articles, etc. and the AI will return some type of interpretation of all the information. Thanks!

I have no desire for fame and I don't like "putting my name out there". But I still want to run a business. My strategy would be to eventually get a partner who could eventually "be the face of the business" but I'd…

I definitely had some character flaws that I didn't fully overcome until my late 20's. Basically, I was incredibly insecure and this led me to always try to do things on my own. This didn't really change until I started…

I have a close connection who is willing to introduce me to a well known figure. I'd like to meet this person because I believe they would be a good seed investor for an idea I have. I think the idea is strong (but it's…
