Facit CEO is a friend of mine, really glad they are getting featured here and people appreciate their approach.

The container is used to ship the tooling, you could purchase the raw material local to site and build what you need there.

It feels nuts to me that there is a push away from strict APIs to conversational interfaces for products and then the actual technology itself under the hood is translating that into a strict set of API calls in order to understand something. Would it not be better to seek interoperability with fairly well scripted natural language handshake. I feel like MCP is built for understanding language and Syntax to a greater degree but not random tools and APIs.

It sounds like you are in an awesome position where your management respect you and your work output. This most likely won't be the case in all positions you take throughout your career. Leading projects are a great way to learn after making mistakes, you also get to set the direction and get the rewards when things go right.

Practical tips on learn good techniques, do research, find the best tech companies that do similar development to yours. Check out their technical blogs, their githubs, find opensource projects which have been developed to the highest standard. Dig into them and potentially even rewrite your own simple versions to learn, maybe twin it so you could make the new implementation a part of an internal research project... so main possibilities there.

They emit methane as a by product of eating the grass, it's like chucking the grass up in the air and having to wait approx 20 years for it to fully come back down to be eaten again, it's still circular, it's still fully sustainable. Digging up fossil oils from deep ground and shuving it into the atmosphere and never ever putting it back deep into the ground is the elephant in the room here.

Could you pinpoint what exactly is not sustainable about eating meet though? In the UK (where I live) we eat meet produced mostly within the country, the livestock here are generally mostly fed a grass diet. Yes we should eat meet in moderation like anything, yes chopping down rainforests and building feeding lots is obvs horrific. But otherwise, the cattle eat the grass, they turn that into meet and farts, which fairly quickly come full circle back into the ground. No fossil fuels here. Hard to think of something more sustainable to me.

Ok that's pretty cool, I've not seen that before.

I'm solo technical founder and currently bootstrapping, not actively looking for a cofounder but looking for like-minded individuals who want to bounce ideas off each other, whether that be technical or non-technical. In my case specifically I have a consumer facing app which is live and I'm in the mystical stage of nailing down PMF.

Love react native, I'll be updating to this version soon. Really hoping it makes suspense work correctly with libs like Relay. Well done and thank you RN team.

Thanks. Great question, improved trust, quality and experience would be the main areas.

We can do better on trust by cultivating it from this caring demographic and supporting them with a fair process. Trust for example that the product you are buying is actually in the condition stated. Parents would likely pay a small premium for this.

We feel that competitors in this field have done well expanding globally but at the same time have not done enough to improve and move forwards the overall experience of buying and selling secondhand. Even as a tiny startup we feel we are already better than the market leader in some of these regards.

Lastly by targeting only parents it allows us to change and optimise the whole process for them specifically. For example we prioritise time saving features (no bidding or offers) and we can offer services that don't make sense to non parents (school clothing).

I generally don't read anything by gh but I think he is cryptically just referring to something like XLA, whereby your NN architecture gets compiled straight to hardware, say to a custom asic, or to an FPGA bit stream, etc.

It's definitely going to happen but I don't think it will replace CPU's much like human brains can't quite replace CPU's and what they are optimised for.

Trying to make out that TinyGrad is leading the charge in this is quite self indulgent.
