I live in the Bay Area and have a high-deductible health plan. Recently, my primary care doctor left UCSF to become a concierge physician — tired of the bureaucracy and low pay despite managing thousands of patients annually.

I booked a new-patient visit with a UCSF physician. The appointment lasted about 20 minutes. A few weeks later, I got the bill: $867. I assumed it was a mistake, but after calling, I learned this was the correct charge for CPT code 99204 (new patient visit, 45–59 minutes). Insurance won’t cover it due to my deductible.

This feels absurd. I get that healthcare is broken, especially in tech-heavy cities like SF, but $867 for a routine visit is hard to justify.

Is anyone working on viable alternatives? Concierge models? Subscription care? Could this be a startup opportunity or is regulation the only fix? Curious how others are navigating this and whether there's a scalable path forward.

I’m an F-1 grad student in the US (finishing May 2026) and and I'm looking into YC. I’m trying to understand if YC accepts founders currently on F-1 status and how the visa piece works. If you got into YC while you were on an F-1 visa (or perhaps right after on OPT), I’d genuinely love to hear about your experience. Specifically:

- How did you navigate the visa process for the program and beyond? - Any advice on making it work?

I know there’s general advice out there, like “if you get into YC and grow your startup, you can apply for an O-1 visa for extraordinary ability.” While that’s helpful down the line, I’m really hoping to hear from folks who’ve been in my current position—balancing F-1 restrictions as a student while pursuing YC. I’d deeply appreciate real stories, whether it’s your own journey, a friend’s experience, or even something you’ve closely observed. For example, what steps did you take right after acceptance to stay compliant with F-1 rules? Did you transition to OPT or another visa during/after YC? Any unexpected hurdles or practical tips for making it work as a student founder? I’m all ears for specific, grounded insights and would be so grateful for your help as I navigate this path!

Really appreciate you sharing any insights!

In the thread about John Carmack presentation, somebody mentioned the reading list he got from Ilya which were crucial to understand what matters and the current state of the knowledge (at the time).

After some googling, it seems like this list is plausible, although not confirmed: https://github.com/dzyim/ilya-sutskever-recommended-reading?tab=readme-ov-file

What would an actualized list look today ?

I'm asking since I'm taking a similar direction to Carmack (with maybe 1% of his talent and skills, but hey it's all about the journey !) in that I don't intend to work on improvement existing models, which I also believe are a road to nowhere, but rather understand things from the ground up, and maybe figure out 'something different' at the end.

Pretty much just the title. Anyone care to share trainings and resources that can help managers get the most from their nuerodivergent team members?
