    I've seen this same method used on multiples apps I've requested an account deletion on. It's super frustrating. Most companies either don't respond back, say they deleted it when …

    The crazy thing is, for me, Facebook was actually useful for following news ever since Google Reader died. I spent quite a bit of time following many pages (people and businesses) …

    Hmm, this definitely isn't the case for .app. There are numerous tiers of pricing as of right now. Google categorized specific names as "Premium", which you can see when searching …

    Oh god where to begin? Apple Music is a disaster. I moved to AM from Spotify 2 months ago in anticipation of Homepod. It’s so incredibly bad.

    Similar experience, I hate to say it. Instacart's support has been pretty poor as well. If your delivery person gets an item wrong or delivers expired goods, good luck trying to ge…

    So I love CSS Grid very much, but have found myself still wanting/needing masonry-style "Pinterest" layouts, which I haven't been able to do without JavaScript. I've seen many of t…

    Would love to hear from others who run groups/events on Meetup and/or Eventbrite. I used to love Meetup, but the interest has been dwindling and the pricing for Meetup is very odd.…

    Bingo. I also run a small Meetup with ~50/Meetup. WeWork (among other coworking spaces) have welcomed my Meetup, for free. Meetups commonly bring in new customers and free drinks/p…

    But they are for economies of scale. Product like UberPool, LyftLine, and UberEats were born from it. The business gets more efficient, and as the network keeps evolving it’ll open…

    Good plan. It's not like that number includes vendors, contractors, drivers or anything that could skew the numbers.

    I worked in the same co-working space as SA back in New York about 2 years ago and I can say without a doubt that the team behind SA hustled their asses off day in and day out. SA …

    Even with WPengine, security issues are a very common thing. WPengine can keep some things up to date, but plugins and themes are exploited often. Worse, an enterprise deployment a…

    Yea odd, I blame it on my inexperience with the city. I lived in East Village and Lower East Side and had all of the scenarios I mention. In fact, on a rainy night once I had the "…
