Part of it is to do with liability and tax stuff. If amazon doesn't share the info in both directions, can they really claim to the taxman and insurance providers that the seller sold you the stuff, or did Amazon really sell you the st

Brilliant, thank you. Can you use the system to analyse results of tests it didn't run? ie. If I run tests using some SAAS that only supports frequentist stats could I use your system as a bayesian analysis backend?

Interesting, thanks. 1. How do you get around needing session level data instead of aggregate data when working with non parametric KPIs? GA in particular is notorious for sampling data. 2. True, but you can't get away from the fact th

Hi. Regular A/B experimenter here. This looks like a great tool! Does your system store the stats, or does it trust the stats to be stored in, eg. GA, and then just allow you to analyse them? Is it appropriate to send email alerts when

Regarding Google Inbox, I felt exactly the same way. The original designer of inbox actually released a chrome extension a couple of years ago which brings much of the experience back. It's not a perfect clone, but it helps a lot. htt

Heap might be good but they are crazy expensive. We were quoted something like a quarter million dollars. Good luck getting that signed off, plus you still need quite technical analysts to run the thing. I've found https://c

Agree completely. When I was a student there were a bunch of these companies. One of my friends used one for he and his housemates to split their bills. After a year, the company stopped paying the gas and electrical companies but didn'

So, I am exactly your target market. I run optimisation at a mid-size global company with a few websites (ranging from 100k to 100m sessions per year). I do A/B testing day in day out. While it has its issues, I think completely dismis

Is it possible to import tasks from other systems? Across my business we already use asana, trello, Jira and Monday, and there's also Google tasks in Gmail. Right now I use tacoapp to bring them all into one screen, literally just the

Hi might not, but the QAs should. Our QAs test everything on a bunch of old devices they got from secondhand stores- typically from iPhone 5 up, and whatever ratty 5-6 year old androids they can find, as well as latest stuff of course.

In London there are "protected vistas" - it's the reason why the shard and the walkie-talkie buildings are odd shapes. https://mappinglondon.co.uk/2011/londons-protected-vistas/

My mother visited my sister at Sheffield University years ago and accidentally ended up going over the top-of course it was fine but it somehow took her by surprise and she mentions it every time the topic of Sheffield comes up.

As a counterpoint, I'm not in teaching but many of my colleagues workdays are heavily disrupted by childcare, so they compensate by working odd hours, sending emails or slack messages at 5am or 1-2am etc. It's not that they expect

I helped a couple of small businesses set up maps business listings a few years back. One was going great for years then in about 3-4 days got a bunch of fraudulent bad reviews from a disgruntled ex exployee. We tried for months to remove t

How do you feel about Workflowy (another YC company) suddenly starting to add new features like bidirectional linking, transclusion and file embedding functionality?
