Couldn’t you say it even more simply?

VCs don’t even care about risk. They just want founders to make them a lot of money. It’s just that their portfolio strategy involves trading on tail distributions of risk. :P

> Besides, can we even attract experienced developers to a non-glamorous industry like logistics?

I wouldn't worry about this. For some devs the industry might matter, but for many code is code, independently if it's for finance, healthcare or logistics. Just make sure salaries are in line with the market.

Internalizing devs will likely produce cost savings long term unless off the shelf tools are good enough for you, but it's an investment that needs long term commitment. Initially you'll still have to pay for your existing product plus the devs, so it'll feel like you just added a cost. Make sure you are committed enough to pass that phase. Your first hires should be able to work independently, talking directly with employees about requirements, without requiring extensive documentation or dedicated PMs before starting. Too much structure initially would be detrimental, you'll probably want to keep the team small anyway.

Civil war, foreign military incursions, mass population displacement, famines, warlordism might explain some of the medical challenges on the ground.

Add to that uncontrolled mining, forest cutting and extractive industries, reserves of in-demand “mobile phone” minerals, and the warlords: unprecedented contact between displaced populations and displaced and under pressure wildlife and you’ve got great opportunities for animal-to-human disease transmission, above and beyond the basic human-to-human kind.

It’s a humanitarian and ecological catastrophe and we’re all just plugging our ears saying “La la la” or “is hygiene especially bad over there?”.

> Why not Brasil or India

Brazil has developmental indicators comparable to China and Mexico so I wouldn't put it in the same bucket as India.

And, Brazil and India actually aren't that dense - they are both much more small town driven due to the constraints of democracy.

A mega city like São Paulo only gets 30% of the deputies of the entire state of São Paulo, meaning smaller towns and rural areas get higher priority. And in India, a megacity like Bangalore only gets 13% of all MLAs in the state of Karnataka.

This made megacities much less attractive to migrate to compared to T2/3/4 cities in both countries.

I think it is a really great article but I am a chef too already familiar with the ingredients and style of cooking.

I think the main issue is getting people to try new dishes.

Of course, the dishes have to be good and not just the chef fooling around. Sometimes this style seems like "hey try this new exotic dish! It is made from mixing organic ice cream, grass fed beef, fair trade coffee and sriracha. Oh you think it sucks? Well that is because your taste buds are use to standard western food!"

I think of how no one needs an intellectual explanation as to why pad thai is good even if they only ever had pizza and burgers.

Really depends on your org structure.

If you already had a global org, then it was already running poorly due to bad VC hardware and inability to book conference leading to lots of drive-by chats. Great for the office which has >40% of the staff in it, bad for the 3 other offices with 20%.

Hybrid/remote/zoom leveled the playing field so that our non-primary-HQ devs were able to fully contribute whereas in many cases they were bodies in seat for follow-the-sun coverage who would do rote Jiras assigned to them.
From what I remember in Hungary thirty-ish years ago: Professional AV was Commodore Amiga. DTP used Mac because of QuarkXPress. Professional design used SGI Indigo.

IBM PC was office and in this period it became the gaming machine. Even before Commodore went bankrupt, the Gravis Ultrasound and Wolfenstein 3D dethroned the Amiga. https://youtu.be/wsADJa-23Sg has an excellent explanation why Wolfenstein 3D couldn't be done on the Amiga. The GUS was key in moving the demoscene to the PC and while obviously that's extremely niche it literally demonstrated what the PC is capable of and had a huge effect on the game creators. The first Assembly was organized in 1992 by two Amiga groups and Future Crew but just one year the latter released Second Reality and the Amiga was no more.
In case of ebola, fruit bats[1] or other bushmeat (chimpanzee, antelopes which can have eaten fruit bats infected fruits) have been suspected mode of transmission.

Line numbers are the dividing lines between columns. If you have 2 columns you’ll have 3 lines: |a||b| the two lines in the middle actually count as 1. Hence 3 lines. So 1/3 is not a fraction its column span. It means “start at line 1 and end at line 3”.
My team is very small remote-primary, but we will travel to each others cities / offices quarterly or so.

We have long since given up on getting any work done on our in-office days, but see them as collaborative / bonding / light planning only.

It's gotten to the point that even if we fly to each others city for a week, we might only go to the office 2~3 days, or by Wednesday/Thursday we might by physically collocated but go to different rooms in silence with headphones to actually get work done.

As a dev these days are actually pretty stressful as they have the feeling of creating work faster than doing any of it. It makes me remember how unproductive my dev teams used to be with the constant in-office interruptions. At prior jobs, I used to do most of my actual dev work after hours, and on unilaterally declared WFH days

I don’t think that contradicts what I’m saying though. The founders set things up so they did not have significant personal downside risk. When that is the case, you have no problem at all gambling $1M or even $1B, because losing that gamble just isn’t that big of a deal if your fallback plan is a job that still pays 5x the median household income.

On the contrary, jumping straight into bootstrapping a startup with a state school background and a small amount of inheritance money would be taking on a huge amount of downside risk. None of these founders did that, which is why they were comfortable with making what looks like an insane gamble to someone who does not have such a safety net in place.
> Are any of the "news" items actionable in any sort of benefitial way to you?

Of course they are, if you live in a place with good local news coverage and you have some kind of stake in your local society. For example, news about infrastructure plans have a huge effect on how companies conduct their business, which will have an impact on the daily lives of people working there. This will never get national coverage, because it's not of national interest.

Sorry, I don't find it back, but I remember distinctly reading about 106 millions for 2.2 miles (and not 53 for 1.7). It was quite recent (like two weeks ago). Aren't they opening new tunnels/stations? Maybe the difference in our data is there. It was just pedantery anyway, the cost are still an order of magnitude below the eurotunnel.

[edit] weirdly I can't find cost nowhere. Everywhere it is said that it cost LVC 52.5 millions to build the first 3 stations and 1.7 miles, now there is 5 stations and 2.2 miles, they upgraded all the cars and the cost is still reported as 52.5 millions. There is also no report on what cost what either, this is really obfuscated. I don't care about the exact labor/material cost, but I'd like to know if the subterranean station did cost as much as the tunnels? less? How much? What about the outside stations?

Did you find anything yourself ?

I was never interested in that company, now I find the lack of transparency baffling.

I just always assumed an "open office", really meaning a non-office, an empty building, was what was available for startups after the dot com bust in SF.

Then after the fact we made up a bunch of bullshit as to why this is some brilliant idea. Then this idea spread as if it was some kind of technological advancement because it worked for small tech companies trying to not spend money on furniture and walls.

We just aren't very good at any of this at scale. The open "office" and battle against remote work are different flavors of the same type of stupidity.
The article is phrased as VCs wanting founders who take risks, but actually it's just another framing of the fact that VCs are looking to reduce their risks as much as possible.

No matter which new market the founders are working on proving, if and once the founders find PMF, first mover advantage provides a very narrow window of opportunity before second-mover advantage competitors enter the market, many of them either incumbent players with large GTM operations or simply foreigners (e.g. Chinese) willing to steal IP and undercut on cost. Exploiting the new market sufficiently quickly to develop into a major player that is capable of providing VC-acceptable returns requires the founders to have, shall we say, a certain kind of cut-throat character.

It has never been more feasible to avoid VC funding. Initial server costs are cheap. Social media makes it free (even profitable) to develop a following to sell to. Why waste your time chasing VC funds?

Total War games confuse me a good bit. I have played a couple mostly blind. The combat seems interesting but the game loops seem really, really bad for campaigns. Like, the game inevitably snowballs as you grow in power and after a very brief period you have little incentive not to to just auto battle everything because whatever mechanical advantage you might get from being better than auto battle; you’re going to lose less time irl just tanking the loss and spending a bit more game time to regroup (which rarely had a consequence). And it becomes a huge grind because you need to be constantly clicking on cities to boost income that you don’t really care about.

I’m curious what fans have to say. It seems to be that the experience would be vastly improved if the campaigns focused on small scenario sections with little to no kingdom management and just a series of planned battles that you must get through with predefined set of resources.

the way GCC does it doesn't quote follow the meaning of any of the options of FLY_EVAL_METHOD at least as I read it. it's close to 2 (i.e. all operations and constants evaluate in the range and precision of long double), but it's actual semantics are that some random subset of it's math is done in 80 bit (which isn't the size of is long double), except when that doesn't happen and it used 64 bit instead. that said, I guess you could call this standard compliant, since the standard says that negative options other than -1 are implementation defined behavior, so maybe the GCC default is to set the option to one of the values allowed by, but not documented in, the standard.

Right. VCs are involved in one stage of the formation of companies, with repeat games. This creates certain incentives and biases. One such incentive is to drive hype for other investors. And one bias is that they tend to see startups and founders as a homogeneous cohort. This is normal, but should not be touted as gospel any more than other players.

The weird undertone that permeates the debate around VCs is that they are somehow the embodiment of some deeper wisdom – that others should pay attention for some universal reason – that they sit on the key to success. It’s just a particular type of player in a market economy. There’s absolutely nothing special about them. Of course they have something to say, like any other profession. But when the thought leading leather jacket comes on, and hot takes start to replace actual semantic sentences, it’s time to tune out.
