    Thank you, this is insightful. I fall squarely between FT & Economist, so I may end up subscribing to both, but given Economist is weekly, this might be a better match for my lifes…

    What are your recommendations for real news? I've heard FT, WSJ, and the economist, and am looking to finally commit and sign up instead of relying on free. You get what you pay fo…

    Interesting train of thought. Could this possibly indicate that investors see light at the end of the tunnel? Dow & S&P are up 1% right now.

    Not disagreeing with you, but what are some books on more accepted scholarly tomes?

    It's also a way for PMs who own apps to build habit-forming loops. If you download the app, you can send push notifications, deep link from email, etc. "Better experience" and all …

    Wow - totally forgot about Github, after reading your exchange I think I certainly have a new avenue to look into now. I know reading about programming is never a good substitute f…

    I think the first part -- what I've learned in school has given me a good foundation to programming, but I'm not sure how to take functional C programming and make web apps out of …

    I've actually used an arduino before in a robotics class, was loads of fun and something I enjoyed! Although, I'm sort of looking into building some web / mobile apps now.

    Shoot, sorry to hear that; at the very least you have tackled a pretty challenging problem. No doubt that discovery is something that really could've changed the app space dynamics…
