Hi Hacker News,

I'm Tanise, a software engineer who's recently taken the entrepreneurial leap to address a challenge I've noticed in the tech world: the need for more engaging and meaningful remote team interactions.

I've launched We Talk Tech, a company offering virtual team-building activities designed with tech teams in mind. My aim is to transform routine Zoom calls into team bonding sessions that foster camaraderie and collaboration.

I would love your input:

What do you think of the business idea? Does it address a genuine need you perceive in remote workspaces?

Feedback on the website would be invaluable: https://wetalktechstudio.com/

Any insights or suggestions for reaching my target audience effectively?

And, if you're leading a remote team and this piques your interest, I’d be thrilled if you considered booking a 15-minute demo to experience what we offer. https://calendly.com/wetalktech/15min

Your honest feedback and advice would be a huge help.

Thank you for your time!

Have you tried looking? There are plenty of programs encouraging women to go into non-traditional jobs.


Such as? What are these programs encouraging women to become garbage collectors or construction workers or miners, and on the same scale as the endlessly hyped women-in-tech initiatives?



As someone who lived in Manhattan and just moved to Brooklyn, I can totally see why Uber is more popular than taxis.

For one it usually costs less. And two, depending on where you live there is no guarantee a taxi is around the corner. Uber is more convenient.


> depending on where you live there is no guarantee a taxi is around the corner

Exactly. You go to a warehouse party in East Williamsburg and it's 5 AM and feel like going home. The public transit situation in Brooklyn would make that trip take a while (wait 20 minutes for the L, get off, wait 20 minutes for the G, or alternatively wait an hour for the next bus). And what kind of yellow cab is going to hang around an industrial district waiting for a fare? Uber wins every time.

It's the density thing. The taxi model works well enough in Manhattan because there are enough people around the hot spots to provide off-the-street fares. A lot of things that work in Manhattan don't always transfer easily to the lower-density reality of the rest of the city/country.


He just stated that he will be selecting based on merit. Other requirements will not necessarily negate that.


I'm not a founder, but I am a minority/female developer in New York. I have a couple of ideas for web apps, but I don't know the first thing about business. Anyway, if I could be of any assistance feel free to let me know. www.tanwill.nyc

Good luck to you!


Awesome, thank you!
