You cannot possibly be a full-time academic and your last name be "Papernot"!
I was going to say this too. And since we're at it: does anyone know how many launch pads the Chinese private space companies have, combined?
Not long ago I was looking at my favorite games of decades past. Unreal Tournament figured very prominently, made of course by Epic. So I wondered: why did they stop making Unreal games? I looked at their game…

Loved the anecdote, very nicely CRAFTED
I resolutely approve of this comment. Bravo.
This is key
We are close to landing our first customer - an enterprise-level one at that! We're Geneva Business Messaging, a tool to centralize, persist, and if necessary escalate critical interactions between large companies and…
Got a little something to say here because my startup is all about this. Worked at 2 $100b market cap enterprises and saw a lot of friction specifically in B2B. For internal collaboration Slack/Teams is pretty much…
I found your comment very moving. Thank you for sharing that remarkable portrait of your father
I've always wondered about those grimy palm reading or fortune telling shops you'll find across major streets in Manhattan or New York. How are they making rent, even during the retail apocalypse?
What if superintelligence isn't even a thing? I was watching an interview with a Chinese-American specialist the other day (I'm sure it's been shared here on HN at some point) and she explained in the Chinese AI…
Seconded
Great comment - it reminded me of Seveneves
This stuff is hard. Today was the first time my little startup started sending out little videos of demo features to the group of about 20+ people (all friends/family/close colleagues) I'd interviewed in round 1 of…
My team and I are building a web app that enables any business to chat with any other business in any language. Details: It's B2B only - can't register with a free email provider, gotta own a real domain -Therefore…
My company is building something in the messaging/comms space, but focused on B2B rather than internal team chat like Slack/Teams. Seeing all the dislike for those two makes me wonder if we should enable intra-team…
A tool to address friction in B2B interactions (mostly between large companies) I've seen in my career. Main innovations are in comms and contract management. Leaning in on some hardcore dev talent in the team for the…
Very valuable, thanks for posting. The author understandably leaves out the dollar figures (even approximations) for what that exist looked like, but the tone suggests it's above decent. The concrete advice for startups…
Thank you (and the whole team of course) for creating something so amazing
Fantastic, inspiring post. Congratulations x 200!
The story is great on its own, but that ending was absolutely magnificent
Don't mean to sound aggressive, but no professional organization worth its salt does systematic password sharing of any kind. Password sharing is almost always a security violation and, even if shared securely, can…
First-time founder working on a B2B comms web app. Have had trouble locking down technical co-founder but recently made great inroads with a childhood friend of all people. If an MVP comes out of it, I'll post it here!
The water cooler thing is a myth. I've spent my fair share of time in tech company offices and have never seen, nor cannot think of, anything worthwhile coming out of those encounters. Like other posters said, a shared…
