I submitted the link. I don't think the link contains any affiliate codes. Either way, I'm not an Amazon affiliate, just a regular shopper.

I attended German, Hungarian and US schools in K-12. In my experience, the US system is the weakest form of education and all the touchy-feely liberalism just results in a crappy education. I knew guys who were taking some idiot version of

My feedback with some tough love: 1. evaluate.me or evaluate.it would be easier to remember. 2. I don't see why anyone would pay $1.25 per response. If I have 10,000 customers, you think I'm willing to potentially put up $10,000 for charity

Let me say again that I think OpenPhoto is a good/interesting idea. My responses: 1) It's a laptop that's constantly moving / offline, so no. I think you should take this issue seriously, because users like myself perceive hard drive space

Some feedback: I think you should make your landing page clearer. Having looked at it, I don't really know what OpenPhoto is. It's not clear where to click to get a simple explanation. Maybe you should put up a short 1-minute video. I think

My father has been a SAP consultant for about 20 years. I remember when I was a kid, he told me about this guy at his work who took SAP home and hacked on it at home in all his free-time (he was single). Unlike most SAP consultants who are

You said it: "consulting roles", "side gigs". Why overload "startup" with something that can be better described by calling it what it is.
801.
by Maro 15y ago
No problem with that, I just think "project" is a better term as long as it's an after 6PM affair. To me a "startup" implies additional commitment and risk due to the absence of a cushy day job.

I think the author would be better off giving it away for free, earning goodwill and making a name for his dev shop, then releasing other apps to all the people who now are aware of him.

Except if you're like 99% of engineers whose favorite syntax is C/C++-ish and are happily using C, C++, C#, Java or maybe Python.
