Well, they don’t have to be college students but they are the ones who are most likely to take you up on this opportunity. I guess I’m curious that you seem to find this idea surprising? I know there’s a limit to what interns can get done but I suspect it’s just about picking the right tasks.
I guess the reason I feel surprised by / dislike the idea is that Lightcone/LW is pretty bottlenecked on employee (and especially manager) time, so hiring interns just seems like a crazy idea to me that I would never have suggested (at least in Lightcone’s current state). But it’s not like everyone knows that, so it wasn’t unreasonable for you to suggest it.
Yeah, I’m not really aware of the state of Lightcone/LW and I didn’t necessarily mean to imply that all of these ideas should be implemented right away.
What do you think an ‘intern’ is? Like are you using the term loosely or do you think LW should, like, hire college students
