Kinda interested in pitching Koaladine product to them

agile comet
#

calm notch
#

whts koladine

#

and startups irrelevant

agile comet
#

his startup

#

ngmi7 is a millionaire btw

#

calm notch
#

oh @median radish ur a founder?

agile comet
#

yea hes a quant trader

calm notch
#

what company

agile comet
#

i would ask him for $15k for startup name

#

ill take a 10% cut as finders fee

calm notch
#

pm me ill send over the details

agile comet
#

@median radish send me 10% too

calm notch
#

bro why u da on your hands and knees rn 😭

plucky orbit
#

lmao

agile comet
#

pleas...

median radish
#

And they told us we'll invest once you actually make the product

#

Koaladine idea is just post Leetcode OAs

calm notch
#

oh is it a recruiter tool for detecting ai?

median radish
#

Basically how to optimally integrate AI into an online assessment without the entire OA being prompt engineering

plucky orbit
#

mfs getting into yc with straight sperms of ideas rn

#

thats tough

median radish

#

Is it like a pro-ai interview?

median radish
plucky orbit
plucky orbit
median radish
plucky orbit
#

yeah

#

thats what i was thinking

median radish
#

But also some amount of human design is necessary

plucky orbit
#

Biggest issue is like making the problems non one-shottable lol

median radish
plucky orbit
#

Lol i see

median radish
#

Games that literally don't exist on the Internet, and where the applicability of AI is limited

plucky orbit
#

Figgie type shit

median radish
#

We've done beta testing, AI is mainly useful for architecturing your bot logic and implementing strategies quickly

plucky orbit
#

Yea

#

Seems like most candidates wld be too brick to do it tbh

median radish
#

But huge amount of human design necessary to make strategical decisions

calm notch
#

is it a mix of coding + games or j logic based puzzles?

plucky orbit
#

jits interviewing for a frontend role at google do not need ts 🙏 😭

median radish
# plucky orbit Yea

Like a classic game: you have N players, each one of them is dealt a "hand" from Unif(0,1)

plucky orbit
#

Tbf they dont need lc either

median radish
#

Every antes 1

Each player can either "fold" or "contest" - contesting requires ante ing an additional 1

calm notch
#

cool idea could be be to have a logic game but have coding component for interacting w it

median radish
#

And the highest player who contests wins the pot

calm notch
plucky orbit
#

Cool idea, but like wondering what kinda signal a SWE interviewer would get on that hmmge

median radish
plucky orbit
#

Im wondering if stripe interview is a good new OA type tbh

calm notch
#

whats stripes interview?

median radish
#

A human typing in moves did better

plucky orbit
plucky orbit
#

like for ex i think one is some app that maps a bike path

median radish
#

But LLMs "with human intervention" are still a lot more powerful at certain tasks

#

Then just an LLM without

plucky orbit
#

yeah for sure

median radish
#

So we optimize for those

plucky orbit
#

interesting idea

median radish
#

I met with a kleiner Perkins partner a few months ago

#

And she was interested

plucky orbit
#

Bro @median radish always on some tuff ahh sidequest bruh

#

i rmr ur kalshi bot

median radish
#

Other people are trying to basically replace OAs with Roblox style games

#

Or "Leetcode with AI"

plucky orbit
median radish
#

I think optimal though is some amount of LLM powered coding

#

With human design intervention

plucky orbit
#

Bro they shld j fire everyone wallahi

calm notch
#

ong put everyone back to square 1

median radish
calm notch
#

i pray for these kids starting out doing cs rn

#

by the time they graduate their life is abt to be hell

plucky orbit
#

they got YC

median radish
#

Yeah

#

2025 spring YC was aggressively investing in anti Leetcode interviewing companies

plucky orbit
#

Tough

agile comet
grizzled surge
#

@median radish YC fall?

median radish
#

Gave it to some of my friends
