It's hard to measure emotion and brand loyalty, especially since you can't A/B test something as long term as the latter. I'm a data scientist, but I'm the first to admit that data isn't always the answer. I'll take sound data-informed int

How do you feel about GitHub's pricing?

by dorkitude 14y ago
Interesting. I'm curious: Do you find our prices themselves to be unreasonable or unmarketable, upon quantitative analysis? Or is it just because we put them in powers of 2?

This is pretty much what we're trying to do. We think the .99 pricing schemes dehumanize the relationship, and we're really all about humanity in our business relationships. Glad you appreciate it -- I'm surprised by the controversy, thou

Okay it's actually pretty amazing that this post made it to the frontpage immediately, then was flagged down and buried. I like justice and all, but ironic humor trumps even that ;)

To me, your post could be pretty easily translated to another industry & time as follows: "Got a problem with slavery? Stop complaining about it! And just buy cotton from the Yankees or from the Dutch, ya bunch of whiners." Drawing ma

As one of those people myself, I certainly didn't mean to suggest that all straight white males are oppressors, but rather quite the opposite: that all or most oppressors of civil rights in this country appear to be straight white males.
