this is nonsense. there's 0 evidence here, and it's not got a single anecdote to back up the point. what do mckinsey and thumbtack have to do with startup wealth?

LLM-based support chat probably. It's a pretty ripe opportunity to build something analogous to Amazon's support experience, especially when combined with Shop Pay. Putting payment provider, retailers, potentially suppliers, custo

Quite frustrated about this. It also didn't restart the app for me, so took me until I missed the starting of a meeting to realize the workflow was broken, and THEN my launcher app couldn't find the name Cron (IE, the aforemention

This is a strange lawsuit. It seems like a gap in the law/regulation if a former owner (in this case, the pre-Elon Twitter management) can make verbal pronouncements that the new owner is beholden to, without a paper trail. With that s

So they went from Heroku buildpack-based ops, to Kubernetes on EKS, through a 3rd party orchestration service? The post is essentially just content marketing for Porter. This is like a case study in what not to do and I think a future follo
