Just took one small step, but it’s actually a GIANT leap for the entire ecosystem!

It’s not about the footprint; it’s about the scalability and the vision. So proud to be part of this mission-driven journey.

Working on a free alternative to Masterclass - compiled from YouTube clips!

Currently have two binge-able mini courses on How to Start a Startup (could be relevant to folks in here)

Here it is: https://opencademy.com/


I think this is pretty interesting, especially if you could remix courses... like if you had a bread baking playlist and a pizza making playlist. The pizza making course could include or use modules from the bread course as a requirement.

Similar with learning software development, you usually need basic modules like regex or databases before learning more complex skills.


That's a great idea, kinda like the Civilization game series' "tech tree" concept. Thanks for checking out the site :)


Hey thanks for checking it out!

I will add more subjects in the future, hopefully based on feedback - would you like to see more Business courses or more fun/creative ones (e.g. Home Cooking 101)?


I could see creative being fun, but if I had to upvote another area it would be health (nutrition, sleep, diet, etcl


I curated the clips (but didn't create them).

Criteria was: is the person a successful startup founder? And does the clip contain practical advice?


That's kinda what I had assumed, just wanted to make sure you weren't using AI or something like number of views


AI might have been a disaster here, I think.

I agonized for a long time about which clips should go in vs. which should be left out.

But it's subjective. For example, if I want to add a basic cooking course - who should I choose to be the authority on cutting vegetables? Ideally, I'd want a professional in that domain to do the curation.


If anyone else is planning to sell ice to Eskimos, I just saved you an API call:

- IceEskimos.com

- ArcticIceCo.com

- ChillyChillers.com

- ChillInn.com

- FrostBites.com (my favorite)

This is so fun, but also not good for my domain buying addiction. Great job!


Oh that's fun! Maybe I should offer to optionally save the queries so that others can browse all these great use cases. Ice to Eskimos. Brilliant!


Can we see Paul Allen's card?

(Does he have a GitHub?)
