Good point. What if you have two models: - One: the model you have right now. this is for organizations where the value outweighs the price tag. - Two: Smaller organizations are generally also more willing to compromise on JS/asset bun

$400/month is what PDFJS express is charging. $400/yr would have been a little difficult to swallow too, but this amount is just absurd for a product where most of the underlying technology is open-source.

I agree with both of you. Our wrappers are currently very tightly glued to the rest of the product, and have a lot of hacks (hint: PDFJS documentation is not very rich, they have barely touched their documentation since they came out). So w

I have a startup and we are highly reliant on PDF rendering in our application. But here's the thing, Nik: your pricing model doesn't make sense to me. In general, most PDF SDK models don't make sense. I have searched a lot o

Great point too! I have been meat-"sober" for 19 years, but dang chicken booty calls me once in a while.

That makes sense, but the Impossible brand is not for us vegetarians and vegans. So evaluating it or calling it a failure on a measure that is not its objective isn't fair :/

Thank you for your vulnerability and sharing your story with such honesty! There are easy businesses, and there are hard businesses. Your business fell in the latter category, but your tactics to succeed were based on easier businesses. I s

Yes good point, that is why a TLD which recognizes you as a non-profit would not be a good idea. You would probably be just fine with .org regardless of whether a more apt TLD is going to be created.

by 2pointsomone 7y ago
Both good ideas! I would have probably come up with .public or .world or something less representative of organization legal structures.

by 2pointsomone 7y ago
You know what an NTEN in partnership with a mega tech company (e.g. Google) should do? Buy a TLD that replaces .org and seamlessly transition (for free for 2 years or so) every .org owner. It's not impossible to imagine a mass exodus f

This is so amazing!! Is there more of this math-driven animation or design on the web? I constantly need to do math for web animations. And even though I learned this in middle and high school, I struggle to translate to real world problems

Would love a low-down / interview from a founder of one of these chains (there's also Curry Up now in the bay area) on the economics of making an indian fast-food joint. It might be a one-sentence article saying "demand"

Oh yes of course, it's sarson. My bad. Big misconception corrected. My only association with saag was sarson ka saag, before I came to America, where I found it interchangeably used with palak in palak paneer.

Love it! But this is Palak as a Service, not Saag as a Service. Saag, I think, is mustard leaves

Because that would break the unwritten confidentiality I have with the people there. And life just can't be lived by burning bridges :)

Yep, eazenberg is right. I kinda know what they were paying. It's not how much you think.

Have you written to Dylan from Figma? He was around 20 when he came up with the idea for Figma and got funders behind him. You NEED to make this happen, Alyssa! This has been a need for very very long. I think you can almost jump past the M

Is the code for your paper available in a Github repo?

I know a bunch of people here have said "partner with a bank" or get a license. That seems like a good option, but obviously you wonder how can a small startup or even a founder or two do that? I have learned a couple things about

Thanks for that perspective, Jeremy. But I think hidden in that question was an underlying question: does changing the brand in non-radical ways change perception in people's minds? The answer might be yes for Dara, but it seems unintu

Why does a company like Uber, which tweaked it's brand only recently, have go through a rebrand all over again? I can imagine it is an extremely expensive endeavor. I have for long appreciated the business value of design, but often st
