Never thought I would agree, but recently started a new job in a fully remote company. I was super excited. I thought it would be a dream. Instead, I have found that it's basically…

Buybacks are mostly evil, and used to make their managers/c level wealthy: https://www.epsilontheory.com/the-rake/

Sure, but that doesn't make it "ethical." It's still killed, and nothing wants to be killed.

Death !== killing, not matter how you want to justify it.

There is an ethical difference yes, but it’s still a net negative. We don’t need to kill in order to eat. We just choose to.

Hate to break it to you, but there is no such thing as ethically farmed meat. If it’s killed for your plate, it’s still bad karma.

So this is different from the Flutter product I backed on Kickstarter? Confusing... https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/flutterwireless/flutter...

Was. Not anymore.

Friends and family is 100x different. It’s impossible to explain unless you are a parent.

That's a ridiculous question. $10k says you don't have kids. I have 3. 15, 14, and 7. I'd give anything to have more of their precious moments saved so that I could reminisce and s…

How can an article about a re-design not actually show or compare the two designs?

Also take notice that there is a charge of $1 per invoice when you send more than 2,000 per year. That's crazy!

The only thing I see is that I'm given the starter plan, which means .04% surcharge after 1 million in sales.

Easier said than done when your product requires that you integrate with dozens of gateways.

Isn't it my job as a Stripe Customer to build that functionality into my own app so that I can manage it in the way that works best for my customers?

Stripe is supposed to be a back-end API, not a front-end API. I don't want them taking over my payflows and confusing users.

But fees will change right?

But I don't want invoices? Stripe needs to decide if they are a b2b API, or b2c checkout and invoicing product.

It seems to me that Stripe has gone from easy to cheer for underdog, to payment processor that wants to eat the world (ala Facebook). I love that they are constantly innovating, bu…

Current Stripe customer that is now very confused.

They should have just called it a Tweet Storm and let the crowd win. Instead, they tried to pioneer a new term and act as if it was in their heads all along. As for the topic itsel…

The sign up flow is confusing. I clicked the button, but was sent to AWS. Finally signed in there, and was taken to a support level sign-up flow. Went back to the original link whi…

I stopped going to meetups because they felt like glorified networking groups where I never really found any value, solid connections, or a reason to go back. I tried both speaking…

Based on what I've read, and I'm fully willing to admit it's all hearsay, Steve, while having achieved great things, has a history of abusing his power and treating founders poorly…
