    Yeah, it likely should have. I've however been on the receiving end of some very odd board behavior and most founders I know have a story or two as well. I don't always take board …

    Sam lost the plot for me. He took too many interviews which led me to not trust him. Last straw came with him standing by Anthropic one day then throwing them under the bus the nex…

    We’ve been using Retool for the past few months and I just want to say thanks. It’s saved us a slew of time and y’all are always responsive to any issues I’ve run into.

    We've been using full Serverless for the past year with Serverless framework little to no issues. Sure, a single server would be a little bit quicker but that is my only major comp…

    I have not but my co-founder worked at Uber for 5+ years. He said they had engineers basically building whatever anyone wanted. He said they built their own Slack more or less just…

    If you aren't familiar with it, take a look at their examples. You can do whatever you'd like with it.

    All in on AWS for BE. Just about everything you need is there for free or close to free. Netlify for FE hosting just because it’s so easy to tie up to Github. Retool for ops. Metab…

    I've been involved in a site that has over 10k pages and it worked fine. Sanity has a preview feature and Gatsby incremental builds are available now (which I haven't used yet) but…

    I disagree. I spent a few months with it and it was a bit of a nightmare. It fits certain use cases and AWS and others push it as a good use case for more than it should be. Have g…

    I've enjoyed using Gatsby in a hybrid approach to combine marketing and a web app for MVPs. It's allowed me to get up and running quickly and haven't run into any major issues so f…

    Thanks for sharing. I just recently deactivated Instagram for ~3 weeks, logged back in to download my photos, and then tried to deactivate again. At first, it failed and threw an e…

    Meh, I bought it back in 2016 in the 20s. Also bought Twilio around then. Hit some downturn/burnout freelancing and sold it not long after. You win some and you lose some.

    I've heard of this happening in Austin with one firm specifically. For the most part, they have a bad rep around town.

    The same idea was built in Austin and acquired. I had the same thoughts. http://www.siliconhillsnews.com/2018/05/02/meta-saas-acquire...

    Sure but, these issues come to surface much quicker. Every time I've started a new iOS project in the past ~2 years, I've reached out to a handful of developers and managers on how…

    This article resonates with me. As of late, social media has been a negative for my life. It is terribly distracting. I pay attention to who interacts with my content more than I s…
