The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q One percent. Interesting. Okay. Now this is an interesting model. You know, it can, if you grow really fast, you've got to ship a thousand new POS systems. If they cost you 500 bucks a pop, you've got to come up with that cash from somewhere. How are you subsidizing the hardware?

A Yeah. So the, the hardware itself is, uh, you know, and you actually got the number right. It costs us about 500 bucks to, um, to purchase all the hardware. We usually make our money back within, you know, three or four months. Uh, so we just have to be smart about how we, uh, deploy it, right? You know, we can't deploy a thousand in a day. Uh, we have been, you know, backed by, um, you know, some venture capitalists and we do plan on raising the Series A pretty soon. Um, but the process would be that, um, Uh, we wouldn't use hardware money. I mean, we wouldn't use equity money to buy hardware. We would leverage some leasing, you know, um, deals which we have some now. Exactly.
