I've ended up using aider with pycharm, it's not as feature rich as cursor but works great for me

i've started using aider with https://aider.chat/docs/usage/watch.html works great and you can keep using jetbrains IDEs
- tool to analyze and explore unity3d build size reports
- tool to manage examples dataset for another ai application
- macos transcribe app that allows me to hotkey to speak to notion page, with a little status bar menu to select pages
All relatively trivial but I'd never bother to create them manually

Not really and I use it all day, I tend to have a lot of short chats and don't paste ton of context in
Building transcription app that lets me dictate notes to notion.
Doint a lot of exploratory work for my day job and trying to establish practice of good documentation so i hope being able to ramble as i work will make this easier.
At this point it's simple macos flutter app that toggles recording on global keyboard shortcut.
yes i still pay for both
For my use cases: web development with python, c#, react and unity3d extension development. Claude is significantly better.
I switched over few months ago and still test GPT from time to time, Claude wins every time

Find a company that does things you are interested in that is also hiring people with your skills (webdev?). Get a job there as backend Dev and after a while ask to transfer internally into role that's more interesting. Before you can ask for the transfer hang out and learn from people that do thee job you want
I'd highly recommend a course by Andrej Karpathy: https://karpathy.ai/zero-to-hero.html
some of it is probably just for fun while playing with openai api
It used to be UK, London specifically. No longer in EU but still reasonably easy to get in.
After that I'd guess Berlin or Stockholm? Note this is from anecdotes and not hard data.
i haven't used it yet but https://c4model.com/ might be relevant to what you're looking for.
Personally I start with exploratory code and wiki for documentation (these days notion)
Almost any idea you'll ever have will be out there, usually with small differences not exactly the same but still pretty close.
I would not be bothered and continue working, if you build it right and speak to your customers your idea will evolve 100 times before you realise
giving up ~30%/40% of the shares in the seed round. That's something you can regret
For simple web frontend chatGPT is worth a try. Ask to generate template using tailwindcss, i've only tried it a little and i do already know basics, but it's suprisingly effective for simple layouts.
looker (i think there's already some projects trying)
I'd recommend following author of this thread for technical analysis of chatgpt and other models https://twitter.com/goodside/status/1598874674204618753?t=5W...
Anyone up to do one of these in Lisbon ?

The startup is still going 5 years in. We had great run intially up to raising series A in 2019. Then covid hit us hard we had to lay off most of the team. We are growing slowly again but not quite out of the pit
Now one of my co-foundes pushed out other one last year and now is quitting himself with most of his equity vested.
At many points in the last few years my decisions to stay in the business were much harder because of unbalanced equity. Running a business is hard, hardest thing I've ever done. Last thing you want is feeling someone is going to profit from your effort and you get nothing from it, it's especially risky with your setup because your VC friends might eventually get pref shares. And don't count on your personal relationship with them, end of the day they are running business and have obligations to their investors
Finally raising seed money is not the success, building product people want with supportive business model is, running 18 months with your seed money and failing anyway doesn't sound much better than 18 without investment. I don't have that much experience in investing but I'd also think that cap table like this would make getting more money from other investors hard
I've joined a start-up as third co-founder and agreed to only 10% equity, regretted it few years in. From now on I'd not accept any offer that's not equal split between funders (few % difference at most)
For your situation if they'd be more engaged I'd suggest equal equity split what you describe sounds like normal investment albeit with fairly hands on investor. They should be getting 20%, 30% if you feel generous.

we have a business in rental space and decided to go for b2b2c distribution. We're partnering with agents and landlords who are offering our product to tenants.
I've never regretted changing jobs. Go to new place, learn and experience new environment, expand your network.
I'd bet if you don't like it you can always go back to MSFT later, likely for higher salary
king games (candy crush) run on prem without containers while i was there (until 2016)
Ukraine is not in NATO. Sacrificing three member states won't happen because everyone knows if that is allowed they will be taken one by one
NATO is doing everything it can to avoid war now but i'm pretty sure everyone is preparing to react in case member is attacked
that's what everyone thought would happen with Ukraine, and Baltic statse will have full support of nato
ha nice to hear this idea. I'm planning to work on this as a side project, just started recently
