Didnt think of the FinOps angle - thats a goodd one! The annoying thing about filtering by AWS mentions is that every other company seems to list all the clpud platforms like in a list, even if they use just one of them. Adding FinOps is a good additional filter in that case

Yep, job listings definitely are a good place to dig into. Thanks!

Yep, i guess i mean how to find the ones where the costs is exploding and where its becoming a pain, not just a nuisance they tolerate

Definitely would recommend the Rands Slack channel though only catch is you need to be in some sort of engineering leadership role (not sure if the criteria changed though). But I’m sure if you ask nicely, they’ll let you in. Lots of channels related to career advice there

Also would recommend just going through this huge list of tech companies that use Slack to see if any of them fits you: https://bloomberry.com/data/slack/

The web UI has become extremely slow. I am not sure if its that way for everyone or its because there are more people in our team using it. Many people dont like the UI too although that isnt my main concern

I guess to be explicit, how will they respond to the threat of it being designated a supply chain risk(edited title)

Would followers or commenters usually be recent customers though? Because that really is my target audience: users who just decided to purchase and use ChatGPT.

Thanks! Those are helpful!

For number one, any idea the best person to contact in those companies? They probably dont got a head of AI person so wondering if a VP of Engineering is the next logical person.

Also I haven’t thought of forums/communities! Any idea whether I am more likely to find small companies or big enterprises there?

i dont even use a crm blushes. To be honest, im just starting out with outbound so im not doing anything sophisticated. Just want to import a list of leads, enrich with contact details and their tech stack data. Thats all.

Ppl keep recommending me tools like apollo and zoominfo but they way too powerful for me. I dont care about how many data providers they have because i just care about those 2 thinfs

It would be great if u could overlay a HN sentiment chart over all of these tools.

I doubt they have side deals. They took action on some of them by removing their company page, but that is like a slap in the hand.

If you want to make a big deal about this, tell us you at least sent a letter to the big players too. Otherwise, dont put up such a huge show

Examples?

Why are they going after the small fish?

If they really want to put a dent into this, go after the biggest players scraping LinkedIn: PeopleDataLabs and Apollo.io (and no, taking down their company page does not count)

I know someone who got addicted to the influencer money in Tiktok and dropped out of a med school program because making 5 figures a month, taking videos of you wearing fancy clothes was way better than slogging thru med school

So your customers just want to use this for their own internal data, not external data from the web. Is that correct?

I like this approach better TBH - more reliable and robust. It probably satisfies 80% of most customer queries too as most want to query against the same sources

For me, I just order a drink when my wife stops by one to order one. I hardly go out of my way to order it myself. Everything from the drinks to the pastries are mediocre

When it finds a page that has the results I'm looking for in a particular website, does it paginate through all of them? When I searched for "stores that are on the Faire marketplace" it seems to return just the first page of results without paginating through all of them.

But lower pay right?

Use first principles in your reasoning. Back your claims up with as much data as you can. It doesnt really matter if you used AI or not
