DeployBot gets $1M investment

• trymas 11y ago
  Doesn't $1MM mean 1 billion $?

    Not in the parlance of accounting. http://www.accountingcoach.com/blog/what-does-m-and-mm-stand-for http://www.accountingcoach.com/blog/what-does-m-and-mm-stand...

      Sounds right, though it's confusing when many people use this notation differently. Is there any standard? though, I guess, it's off-topic.

      True, yet further down the article we see: "What does $1M buy you?", which must be a typo.

    No it does not.

    $1m == $1MM == $1mn == $1 million == $1,000,000.00 It's weird. The MM comes from the roman numeral M which means thousand, so one thousand - one thousand == MM. For SEO guys, you'll now understand why it's called CPM vs CPK or similar.

  Cool, hadn't seen this tool. We're using wercker and generally loving it but there's occasionally a problem with the github webhook integration. That said, you can't really beat wercker's price (free in beta for the last few years). In theory, the prevalence of docker will be good for consumers because we'll be able to swap between this type of service really easily -- just like moving a git repo from Github to Bitbucket.
