For years, when it was time for startups to start selling their product, they could turn to any number of traditional playbooks. But as with so many things, AI is changing how companies prepare to go to market. “You can do more with less than ever before,” Max Altschuler, general partner at GTMfund, told the audience at TechCrunch Disrupt last month. The challenge for founders and operators, though, will be threading the needle. While there has been some chatter of startups hiring developers more versed and loosing them on typical GTM problems, he said, there’s still a need for more…

The best TVs under $500 are a lot better than you’d expect them to be. Years ago, spending $500 on a new TV might only get you 1080p resolution and a 40-inch screen. These days, it’s definitely possible to score a 55-inch or even a 65-inch 4K smart TV for less money and with much better performance.For that reason, I recommend that everyone check out the Hisense U65QF and TCL QM6K, two exceptional Mini-LED TVs with great contrast, color volume and brightness. You won’t believe how good they look for the price.If you want something that’s a little simpler to…

Sometimes store-bought grated Parmesan cheese just won’t cut it. If you are adding grated Parm to a pasta sauce or really need it to melt into your dish freshly grated is the way to go. But let’s be honest, you don’t always have time to get out that box grater and get in an arm workout while making dinner. Thankfully, a hack that’s been recently making the rounds on TikTok taught us the easiest way to grate Parmesan cheese. This hack leaves all the work up to one staple kitchen appliance: the blender. With the help of your trusty countertop…

Even though travel is genuinely one of my favorite things to do (and my favorite thing to spend money on), it can still be overwhelming to plan a dream trip. I have dozens and dozens of trips — domestic and international — under my belt and yet, I still find the process of planning and booking stressful. Millions of Americans will be traveling over the 2025 holiday season. That means millions of people are gathering their passports, planning driving routes, creating itineraries and gearing up to travel over the next several weeks. If you’re one of those people, you may be…

I first discovered Walmart Marketside Mild Ground Italian Ground Sausage a few years ago while aimlessly wandering Walmart for dinner inspiration. If I am not using the leftover ingredients in my fridge to guide me to what to cook, I walk the meat section of the grocery store to decide what I might be in the mood for. Among the rows of pale ground pork, this specific product stood out with its vibrant speckles of red, orange, and white. The ground sausage looked fresh and natural, so I tossed it into my cart, and I’ve been adding it to my…

has perhaps been the most important word when it comes to Large Language Models (LLMs), with the release of ChatGPT. ChatGPT was made so successful, largely because of the scaled pre-training OpenAI did, making it a powerful language model. Following that, Frontier LLM labs started scaling the post-training, with supervised fine-tuning and RLHF, where models got increasingly better at instruction following and performing complex tasks. And just when we thought LLMs were about to plateau, we started doing inference-time scaling with the release of reasoning models, where spending thinking tokens gave huge improvements to the quality of outputs. This infographic highlights the…

Have a project idea in mind, but think it’s too niche? I, too, was in your shoes until I finally scrapped that thought and started building whatever wild idea hit me. Many projects later, I’ve now realized that no matter how laughable an idea may sound, I should consider it. Here’s why. A dumb project can still solve someone’s problems Credit: Shutterstock/PaeGAG I’ve learned that a project doesn’t have to be important to be useful. Half the stuff I build starts with me saying, “This sounds stupid, but let’s build it anyway.” Then, when I share the idea with people, there’s…
