Hue -- it was the only option that felt 'mature' and well supported. We got a really great price on them and accept that we may swap them out in 3-5 years.

It is still very hard to find matter devices. We wanted recessed downlights and ended up with Zigbee. My air conditioner just died, would be great if a matter compatible one became available.

It's because the older generation of accountants screwed over the younger generation to build a moat around their own pay. Becoming a CPA used to require only a bachelors degree in many states, now you need a master's degree. As a

For enough money the customer can get anything they want. I've been on the buy side at a stodgy financial services company and this offer came up frequently enough.

Share more about why you do the things you do or the impact/effect of what you do and less about how you specifically do it. I help people save money/retire more confidently by building tools that accurately calculate blah. If you

If you can't work through disagreements now, starting a business together won't help. What exactly does the business need to spend money on? You can get a free/starter/subsidized version of just about every component of

If you can afford it, join a concierge medicine plan. I get same day appointments with my doctors. They also respond to emails and text messages. It sucks that I have to pay an extra $4k/year for each adult in my house but we found it

1. You and your co-founder might have a lot of relevant industry expertise or a productive Rolodex to accelerate sales. 2. Have you built anything or validated the idea in any way?

The landing page is too vague. Reminds me of every other resource that promises me insane stock returns if I follow their advice. Maybe add a video and a link to a demo account.

This is me. I bought two new cars every 2 years like clockwork. We replaced one car because we NEEDED a larger family car and have gone without the 2nd for over a year. It feels impossibly hard to buy a great car today.

But it is unlikely and is often VERY expensive to support. Small companies are often immature and unsophisticated. They will drown customer service, bad mouth your tech due to their poor implementations and distract you from serving enterpr

Frequently, no. Most companies with 20 servers aren't going to turn into 2000 server companies. A lot of companies with 20 servers are very immature, needy and demanding. It isn't worth the effort to continue support for non-cust

High level roles are about setting vision (a high level goal), ensuring that the org is progressing towards that vision, getting other same-sized groups to support your vision and resolving blockers to your vision.

I think that SaaS products just disagree with your conclusion. Service accounts which are accounts that provide value and provide that value to your bigger and more complicated customers, should cost money. The smallest and most price sensi

IT tried to get us to migrate to Gitlab in a past life, it went absolutely nowhere. Gitlab is stupidly expensive and complicated for value that never realized.

I've seen this with technical roles where you start in one job family and get promoted to another. E.g., Integration Analyst I....Integration Analyst IV -> Data Engineer I There's also cases like Medical Doctors where the start

In my experience, that has not been true. Setting up Azure is its own major undertaking and requires an entire separate set of security reviews and approvals.

Analytics Engineering are folks that transform data in an ELT model. The most popular tool is DBT. I think the work will continue as companies embrace the idea of not writing custom ETL code anymore. The tools are super immature though. DBT
