Coram AI | Demand Generation and Growth Marketing | Hybrid (3-4 days onsite in Sunnyvale, CA) | Good comp and equity

About us: We provide modern video security and intelligence to businesses. 98% of businesses use an outdated video security system that is no more than a video recorder, is not cloud-connected, and does not leverage AI. We unlock the value of TBs of video data businesses collect from their security cameras. Our tech is based on foundation models that allow searching through months of video logs in seconds and derive insights that help businesses save time and money.

About the role: We are growing our GTM team and looking for our first demand generation/growth marketing person. Read more here https://www.linkedin.com/hiring/jobs/3680889348 or email directly ashesh[at]coram.ai

I’m shocked that what everyone said would happen is happening. It’s insane that we aren’t shifting to EVs (which transmit energy by power line vs oil pipelines). It was one thing when we didn’t have the technology, but now we have the tech and the capital markets to make it a reality.

What did "everyone say"? Are you confusing Keystone with Keystone XL?

If they've been spending $3 million/year on Twitter ads, are they that bright in the first place? I've literally never made a single buying decision that had anything to do with a Twitter ad. Ever.
masonic commented on After a Decades-Long Ban, San Jose's Lowriders Are Ready to Cruise Again   atlasobscura.com/articles... · Posted by u/quercusa

>In 1986, the city implemented a ban on cruising to address gang violence, crime, and traffic-related accidents. But San Jose’s primarily Mexican American lowriding community has suffered the consequences of the ordinance, which many say facilitated discrimination.

This is a crock. The ordinance affected only stretches of San Carlos Street and Santa Clara street and was implemented because the resulting gridlock rendered downtown businesses utterly inaccessible (even discounting rampant crime). The entire rest of the city (and county) was open to them, even Stevens Creek Blvd.

It's going to be very interesting to see this conflict revitalize if the so-called Google Village west of Market St. ever happens. Right now, downtown is mostly a ghost town at night anyway.

masonic commented on Airbnb has a plan to fix cleaning fees   abcnews.go.com/Lifestyle/... · Posted by u/cwwc

> hosts don’t like charging them

This is a crock. Since AirBnB has no search filter for "Show price with fees", it encourages hosts (literally every superhost in my searches on a recent trip) to show an artificial rate and then a "cleaning fee" upwards of 50% of the base rate.

The IBM 3800 was a highly reliable laser printer. It was first deployed 46 years ago.

I'd guess that's a classic case of economies of scale, although inflated property costs and government corruption could also be playing a role. However, compare to China(wiki):

> "The HSR network reached just under 38,000 km (24,000 mi) in total length by the end of 2020. The HSR building boom continues with the HSR network set to reach 70,000 km (43,000 mi) in 2035."

At that scale, costs per km would be expected to drop off on a steep curve, due to economies of scale, distribution of initial investment costs over more km of rail, etc.
