Do I need to pay to see that? It is confusing. Anyway yes calculator apps are a fantastic project: 1. Can be anything from just running a lisp repl and doing (+ 2 2) to a full blow…

What are the inconsistencies? None of these tools will be perfect. They don't have backend access to Google's servers. It is all approximate because the long tail is stuff like "bu…

I'd say Atlassian is good at least in AU not sure about US. You have to work the 40 but thats it. I do more than 40 because I enjoy but no pressure. Also Team Anywhere and as long …

Back in the day (2000s) if you were a .NET shop it made sense as the providers for anything else were not as good. And probably you are more likely to get those skills over Postgre…

SQL Server and Oracle too but not being open source is a big minus.

Or thanks follow the sun sres

TIL! I'd love a 1.1.1.4 (plus adblocker) and 1.1.1.5 (plus adblocker plus social media blocker)

Dont pay $20, use the API and pay $2 or less :)

You are right and the biggest asset here are executives and management that can: 1. Think 2. Know what is going on. 3. Effectively get the best from their people. You want the whol…

> If a competitor launches a feature that all your customers want and start to switch to benefit from it, what are you going to do? I would say this is not that common in SaaS. In …

I like this metric. YC doesn't own all of that but that doesn't matter for this exercise. That $458 billion is disjointed. It cannot move as one (when needed) like say Microsoft ca…

I think it massive improves your odds of a unicorn. But a regular old business aiming for a humble $10m valuation based on profits, of course not.

Sure I'd rather have $1m in FAANG shares than SF real estate over 10 years but maybe I am wrong. Especially as SF real estate relies on NIMBYism that might change whereas FAANG rel…

It needs a culture change. The magic words: "Our customers prefer the product works over getting a new feature, so let's ensure that at any cost" Number of features is a dial. You …

Taking ownership is very much egoless! You are doing that for the team. Ego would be making sure you got "your" sprint tickets done, did no code reviews, skipped the retro. I think…

That is what makes it very interesting! I think you have said not interesting when you may have meant explainable. If it is boring, who else does this?

If I met a 8 holed donut I'd tear it a new one.

It is critique not advice.

It is legendary. Trying to think is anything else like it? Freemasons? Hells angels? Donald Trump's cabinet?! Does YC do this consistently though. Even they have to choose battles.…

I'd love to know who "wins" in a scaled YC vs. the oceanic tide that is the SP500 and it's capital sucking and brain sucking ways. A Google can stop 10000 potential startups simply…

Commoncog hits a home run again. This is fascinating. It is more Suits than Suits. Showing how strategy > law when fighting a case. But also the interesting fraternity (not all boy…

It can look nice. It is like asking: passive or active voice? It depends what you are writing and what makes sense to the reader. I do like pipelines though!

1. Change . to | 2. Reverse Now you have: words | map read | sum Or.. $ cat words | map -e read | sum

Oh sir we call that "operational semantics"

To understand "do" you need to understand the underlying >>= and return operators for your monad. If you can use >>= and return to do it then "do" is indeed a mechanical transforma…
