    How Do You Feel About "Bootcamps?" Are They Worth It?

    FEEDBACK - AI - 
    That said, a bootcamp might be helpful for a nontechnical person who later wants to manage technical people. While you will not learn skills to build anything, you will learn enough things to tell buillshit from not-bullshit, and you'll be able to deal with contractors/consultants much more...

    How Do You Feel About "Bootcamps?" Are They Worth It?

    FEEDBACK - AI - 
    Well, you can certainly prove everyone wrong. You can carve your own path, become a billionaire-celebrity, and then teach others. Then you better have a thick skin and not be discouraged by random people on a forum who may or may not be competent. I HAVE tried hiring folks who are smart and...

    My Idea is a Reality - Now What...? SEEKING ADVICE

    MARKETING 
    @Marley T instead of focusing on backpackers, why not, say, focus on refugees looking for work? You may think they don't have money, but I know someone who worked with the children of refugees from one of the worst hit zones on the planet and they were able to pay $7/hour for their kids ---...

    Good question. It really depends on the context, whether your team has 18-year-olds serving coffee, salespeople selling mortgages over the phone or senior researchers. A specific example: many corporations have an internal "wiki" that stores all kinds of organizational knowledge. It would be...

    Side hustle, exhausting corporate life, mortgage - and then what?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    An acquaintance of mine thought to buy a house to rent. He is very smart, very successful in his career -- he can earn more than $1000 per DAY. So he figured, why not, redirect some of this money to buy and rent a house. First, he bought a house for, let's say, 800K, and he was told with...

    Climate Change-related Industries

    IDEA 
    According to a World Bank Report, just Indian cities will need $2.4 trillion for climate-related infrastructure by 2050. Most of it is just adaptation to the consequences, not even talking about slowing down the impact, carbon accounting, carbon removal, etc. India already has a "Ministry of...

    Anything that has to do with athletics & video I'd be curious to know more about -- maybe some of what I've got can be repurposed.

    It has a huge video component as >50% of revenue has to do with selling photo/video. However, I am now realizing the economics of the project is off and the hours/expense required to get where I want to get is hard to justify by the potential reward. So, I am considering related business models...

    AI Agents: Beyond the Chatbot

    - AI - 
    I think there's no debate about the business model: if you can automate work inside corporations, sky is the limit. The question is, what resources do you have to create something that will be remotely useful without requiring enormous efforts from your first clients? Keep in mind, many large...

    Ranked List: The Best Investments... Do you agree?

    INVESTING 
    Logically think where's the money coming from? Angel investing can create new value. Index funds are sharing in the growth of the overall economy, which isn't very fast. Picking an individual stock is a zero-sum game much like playing poker. These are your choices: (1) create more value, (2)...

    Do You Think Anti-AI Apps Are A Value Skew?

    - AI - 
    Speaking of climate change, there are tons of startups out there developing better batteries, better farming, better shipping, optimizing energy consumption, etc.etc.etc. And ironically, some try to use AI to offset the damage from AI :) because people who care about climate change aren't...
