Why are startups obsessed with subscriptions? Just sell me some coffee. Start an Amazon store and let them handle the logistics.

But does that cover the API and if devs break something during a release? That's where I see the problem often. New API gets released that breaks something but the broken thing doesn't get fixed quickly.

The big downside I've found using this a lot in the past is that Google has no SLA for sheets. Sure its Google, so it has high availability but things can quite often fail with no support from Google. So just be careful of building any

I think it would be best if he described what he meant by scalability. I think he meant in terms of team scalability. Since it is the most frameworky it has fewer design decision by your team and devs are more interchangeable. Of course you

Totally understand and feel the same way. Unfortunately too many companies hire on knowing the latest buzz words than the ability to learn fast. So I try to always learn some new things but not to go crazy. I think you can be successful but

I feel the same way; however, I like to do races and different events. I don't do it to win, although when I get lucky it's fun, I do it mainly to run in different places and to run with others. I really enjoy travelling to just r

The problem is when we form Groups or Tribes based around something we fall into the trap of just whitelisting or blacklisting things. This is a natural human algorithm to simplify things in our brain and make our decision processes more ef

When I first heard of this, I immediately thought it was a terrible idea. However, even if you thought it was good, why would you crapify your company for 5 years? That's a huge cost. At the very least, try it in only part of the compa

Good code takes time but if you want to make a real product your going to have to make compromises.

If you have ever done GUI layouts in other frameworks there is usually something like flexbox and something like grid. Both are valid and you use what fits your problem better. I like flexbox a little more because I find it more responsive.

It's need to be self sufficient to sell more too. Watches are jewelry, so you want more than one. Right now it's painful to have more than one wearable. They could boost sales with a smaller market by just letting the niche be abl

If you can convince my wife to bring less garbage you should win a nobel prize. I agree with you logically, that is what should happen, but in real life and especially with families it doesn't happen. And when you sell to one person in

Airlines are so stupid. They are basically going to force all the families to Southwest with free bags. Southwest needs to market the crap out of this so people know.

I use Django and don't mind being tracked if it helps development. However, the proposed tracking sounds like hit tracking which doesn't give you any meaningful numbers only trends. So I think tracking pip installs would give you

If you want to use Python then use Django. As with any framework, it can be hard to work around but Django gives you the most options to work around the framework than any other framework I've found. Normally, if you are having a hard

A very common cognitive bias or logic pattern our brain follows is to whitelist or blacklist things. When we trust something, we follow it without question or we begin rationalizing it no matter what. And in the day of the internet and Goog

170k in salary sounds really good but since you say total comp, I'm guessing you have stock options or something. So depending on the percentage and what company it is for, 170k total comp could be good or bad. My first software job wa

Yes I often wonder if that is a real strategy. Any whistle blowers want to let us know?

Lets take the product of Silicon Valley, the Tesla. Even take the cheap one at $35,000. I don't think that is much to expect in a lifestyle also considering you make more than most people. Henry Ford back in the day raised wages and cu

Having the same problem. I have a lot of job offers for the bay area but can't make the jump because it would destroy my family life due to the high cost. Middle class families are basically priced out of Silicon Valley.

I think this is my main problem with Google services. It takes them forever to listen to people. And I don't think other cloud services listen any better but at least it seems they give you what you want faster. So they have a better m

Recent versions of ipython do tab complete like you show. Not sure about the other features. But given enough time, everything becomes the same.

What is ridiculous is not necessarily the salary but the portion of it that is for "Location Adjustment", $18,020. $20k extra to live in the Bay Area or New York is pretty ridiculous. For me in Houston TX I can live half as chea

URL constructor looks great! Just wish it was stable. I normally don't have to worry about IE very much anymore anyways.
