There’s something for everyone at the China International Import Expo in Shanghai. Ultimately what’s on display is the world’s desire for a slice of the market in China’s $21 trillion economy.
There is a higher chance of rain in the region, Frank Nocera, a meteorologist at the agency's Norton office said, calling it a "typical late-fall rainstorm" beginning in the region from Thursday, Nov. 12.
There was only one time someone who I really respected as an intellectual blocked me on this website. Care to guess who? If someone gets it right I will tell you who it is.

There is this saying:
"This is the worst AI will ever be."
This used to be true, but now it's becoming clear that if the wrong people take over the government, AI could actually get worse. Or become banned altogether.
Think about it hard! ⚠️

There are unspoken rules in Silicon Valley that are inscrutable to outsiders (Europeans, lots of founders outside the Bay, etc.) One of the most important ones is: sell the vision before the product can prove it.
ie: you don't wait until the product is perfect to tell everyone on Twitter what you're building. You don't raise a small round because you're scared to ask for the big one. Doing these things is experienced as thinking small, and people move their attention to the founder who isn't.
But you do the exact opposite in a city like Paris. In that world the whole point is to build in silence, keep your burn low, and only show the product to a few people once it's ready. And if you get loud about something that isn't perfect yet, it feels like overselling.
Essentially, in SF attention is a mechanism to get to a great product, in Paris a great product is a mechanism to earn attention. I suspect this is why despite having so much beauty and potential, Paris isn't where innovation is happening right now.
Founders are unable to parse or adapt to the new rules, and so someone in SF builds the same thing, raises a huge round, and outmarkets (runs laps around) them.
