I think convertibles cost around $2k at max while priced rounds will start at $20-30k. The $20-30k is not too much money if you are raising over a million but for a $150k round, it is a little bit too much

Firefox on OS X (Macbook Pro 2017 and 2015): - uses 100% CPU even when idle - frame rate drops to 2-3 per second for 5-10 seconds when switching tabs - causes other programs to not work properly because it is using too much CPU I have tried

I gave up on Firefox on OS X for performance reasons and switched to Safari a while ago and it’s a decent browser. It has support for extensions that I use (ublock origin and 1Password), uses less battery than any other browser, and is fast

I think when they invested, they expected more less like a triple-triple-double-double growth from 2014 to 2018. In 2014 their ARR was $4.6M so investors probably expected their revenue to follow the $4.6M -> $13.8M -> $41.4M -> $8

We just hired someone for around that amount and same level of experience last week and we're a small team of 3 so I assume companies bigger than us will pay more

$100k CAD is not really the max in Canada. That’s how much small startups are paying to hire developers with around 2 years of experience in Kitchener-Waterloo that tends to be cheaper than Toronto

How does it hold up for day to day use? Is it stable enough that could be installed on your main phone without many issues?

On another note, does GDPR mean you can request credit report agencies to delete all their data on you?

User data could or could not be worth that much. Having a team of programmers implementing and maintaining features that make the software GDPR compliant is perhaps the biggest contributing factor the price increase

My complaint is Namecheap bundles useless junk services with the domain for free the first year even though I never asked for them. Then come the second year, they charge you for it without sending any notifications about renewing those ser

The 2017 keyboard seems to not have any of those issues. The touchbar can sometimes be really annoying when I accidentally hit the Siri key when typing fast. Overall I prefer my 2017 15" pro to my 2015 one mainly because it is thinner,

This is a well known issue and Apple will replace your screen free of charge when you take it in. The catch is your laptop will be in service for a week or two which is very annoying if you depend on it for work. You can always buy a new la
