Few things: - Okta is more enterprisey and complicated and works if you are a large company. It has now become one of those tools where "no one gets fired for buying IBM" analogy can be applied. CIos can justify Okta much faster

To be fair, they do provide support including live chat if you have Google Workspace (previous called GSuite) subscription. There is no support if you are on free gmail.

Great points. I was just in Spain (Madrid) and noticed teenagers playing in parks and even on swings etc along with small children. I never see that in American parks, never. I don't know the mental happiness of teenagers in Spain&#x2F

I may be naive or a simpleton but we have heard this before when "robots" where going to take over the world. AI is hot right now and EVERYONE is getting into it. Great. I just don't think this euphoria will last. There will

Personally I think the AI hype will slow down in next year or 2 when we see that nothing can replace human brain completely. Some jobs may get automated but they always have been since history of mankind. I am personally not concerned at al

How do you compare against planetscale (I understand that they are mysql vs you postgres but I am looking for serverless db right now so business/product/support comparison is important)

Let me give you a different perspective than "employers want power" etc. Not everyone can work remotely. Remote 100% is not always the answer. If you are entry level and want to learn from your peers and seniors, nothing beats in

Kudos to you for doing it for 13+ years. As a fellow solo founder, I know how hard this thing is. In my 9th year and going strong (with plenty of self doubts along the way).

I am a solo founder even though I have built a small team. This shit is hard. Like really hard. Really really really hard. This is my 9th year and I can't tell you how many times I self doubt. Yet I keep going. Keep pushing. I am nowhe

I didn't down vote you becauise it seems like you tried to answer genuinely but your comment is dismissive and doesn't add value to the actual question about Google analytics alternative. It sounds more like "just use logs&qu

Overall ideas are hard to define because it takes a lot of experiments,pivots,redos etc to find product market fit which is 99% execution. Slack started as a gaming company. The idea didn't matter. Many examples like these Don't o

This may be a bit simplified take but is this sort of like Lambda functions/serverless functions as a service where you can also build the code (nodejs only) ?

Good thing is that I am usually honest anyway even though it backfires 90% of the time. Thats just the way I am wired. I cannot sugarcoat which is a huge issue sometimes. I have read that book btw but I am just wired to be "give it str

As a software engineer myself, I am not disputing that. All I am saying is that GP to whom I initially replied was using the comparison with plumbers that they make shit money and that is not the case necessarily in the United States. I am

You will be surprised how much good plumbers make in the USA. You probably used a bad example. Source: I know my trusted plumber makes well over six figures a year and he cannot take all calls. I asked him once if he has problems generating

"Honest feelings" never goes well with my wife, never :). Just saying. The other person has to be able to take it as well.

I don't know. "Do you want me to listen" sounds weird to me. I would rather just listen already and be like "I hear you" and shut up. If they want more help, they will ask.

I struggle with this tremendously. I am always looking to "solve the problem" for anyone that I am in conversation with. I am looking to help "optimize". It has taken me a long time to realize that you need to keep it to

For now, I am more worried about grifters using "AI" to make a quick buck. Already seeing lot of it. You never say never but I just can't imagine a machine ever having a brain more complex than human brain. I just don't
