Which ecosystems? And if you work in those as well then why are you bothering with an ecosystem that has "several orders of magnitude more crap"? .01% is a small number - so you ha…

Hmmm... I guess since you don't use a public profile pic or take selfies this is a bad product idea. Or maybe, just maybe most people don't really care. Maybe your point was that y…

"I want to be able to compile things from the command-line first and use the IDE to edit the code." You want a text editor, not an IDE.

Ironic language given that most "engineers" today can't write code without dependency on built in garbage collectors. Do you really think developers these days are just as good at …

True. Hibernate isn't really the issue - more the existence of Hibernate sometimes creating lazy engineering. I guess I'm old school - my preference (even with simple CRUD) is to b…

This is why heavy ORM's like Hibernate are only good for the most simplistic (and tiny data) use cases. Every situation I've been in where queries can't be optimized appropriately …

All good points. Sharing models without emailing spreadsheets around (now you have your version and I have mine) has probably been the best thing I've gotten out of it so far. I've…

This was the worksheet I created (and have been using for a few months). I believe funded.io is at feature parity with this simplified model - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bxgh…

A few things I was thinking: - Spreadsheets are prone to fat-fingering and messing up formulas. For example, if you built a spreadsheet with three product SKU's and wanted to add a…
