I appreciate the honesty and foresight.

I feel this is spot-on. From previous experience trying to get into it, trading gold or silver today feels like buying from car dealerships. If your platform delivers on its premis…

French guy living in the US now. I miss "Eau de Cologne" deeply. We've used it with fevers, headaches, indigestion... and my 95 y/o grandpa still uses it daily. My understanding is…

The immunology department of Marseille, France reported 3 days ago that taking hydroxy-chloroquine and azithromycin together led to 90% of pilot program patients testing negative a…

This business positioning reminds me of what "App.net" did to Twitter a few years back.

are you building a payment gateway for crypto currency?

Employers still get the data via background checks.

Contact Uber via Twitter directly, also contact their customer support. As for the driver's accusation it should be verifiable since they have cameras running. On another note, thi…

Congratulations on Raptor, I'll definitely give it a whirl. Regarding static asset serving, I'm fairly certain serving them through the application server is often not the way to g…

I personally just marvel at the implications of opening up an API for it. Imagine playing Youtube workout playlists, or powering up other devices through it, it could certainly be …

Unrelated to your question, why are you leaving?

Unity has an Asset Store as well as a yearly subscription to their software's Pro version. More users = more sales + more conversions to Pro

Just received an email from FB stating there is increased latency on the API and to expect some 500-503s when querying. ETA for fix: shortly.

As I said, I've used Sails.js. Their ORM is subpar, doesn't even support associations yet. By wrong I meant that where Node.js shines most is in its unified approach to client/serv…

It seems that Go is fast, so if you expect a very high volume and want to keep the server bill low (I don't know about the developer cost comparison) it might be the way to go. I'v…

Absolutely, screenshots & icon are the first hook to an app. In my opinion screenshots greatly influence my decision if I'm presented with two unknown apps of potentially same valu…

I'll only make one point (out of the many) regarding my own experience from having worked at both large corp and startups: - Big Tech Companies have way more money to fund new proj…

The unfair advantage is often one of the hardest (if not the hardest) column to fill out on the lean canvas. I know I had problems. The way you explain it makes sense, though it ed…

Instimage.com here. We haven't "failed" yet. But we're dying slowly. No one cares for Instimage, and there's no money backing it up. No Investors, no angels, just a bootstrap and n…

Instimage.com here. I make nothing. How I do it? It's fairly complex. Step 1: Build a kickass website, take 6 months Step 2: Deal with Paypal Step 3: Rework Step 4: Deal with Paypa…

Instimage.com here I'm still in the pennies. How I do it? Simple. I build it, wait for them to come, then they don't.
