In Toronto most new condos come with Ethernet ports in walls. Fiber to apartment is not exotic either. The board of the condo I lived in managed to get from Bell a CAD 25/mo (USD 19/mo) offer for 100Mbs internet for all tenants. U

Very interesting. As I understand it, IBM consistently avoids high-competition low-margin markets and focuses on low-competition, high-margin markets. This makes sense to me. Apparently, IBM is not good at high-competition/low-margin m

By finding people that need or appreciate what I like to do and making them my customers. PS. I have to admit I'm lucky to like doing something that also pays off well. Not everybody is that lucky.

My initial thought was similar, but then I changed my mind. The difference between the people who don't have many choices and those who do is not money or wealth. It's whether they do what someone wants them to do, or they do wh

Good point. EasyMorph (I'm the founder) auto-generates human-readable HTML documentation on workflows in plain English. It's not perfect, but not bad either. https://easymorph.com

The answer depends on what you sell. If you sell an enterprise product to big corps then the patio11's guide [1] would be a good starting point. Otherwise, selling is simple - just solve the customer's problem as if it was your pr

From a legal standpoint, not exactly. For instance, people in the US are prohibited from buying alcohol until 21yo. Do you consider that restriction also unprecedented and unjustified? :)

One of the most successful examples of bundling is Microsoft's enterprise plans. For instance, the top E5 plan includes so much enterprise software for so low price that it creates the perception of free software. MS Office? Free. Powe
