The way these work is totally transparent (open source smart contracts govern the issued tokens). There's no risk of hidden insolvency (there are significant technical risks, though).

The NFT is a token for the story behind it, just like the artwork. It is issued by the artist. It has even better provenance tracing than the artwork, which could be a fake.

Well, any political system is a contrived popularity contest, so no surprises there.

Your ears are highly directional devices and an orchestra in a concert hall creates a highly complex soundscape that is impossible to replicate with 2 channels. Location awareness (i.e. 2 mics where your ears are) is just a small part of th

Like I said to the other commenter, I agree that Zoom was better than the alternatives. I'm just saying it's the same product as Webex. They didn't come up with a new concept or new technology or a new business model. They ju

OTRS is not really a competitor. It's a crusty open source solution whose only advantage over ServiceNow is that it doesn't cost upwards of $1000/user. It's not really in the same ballpark. The decision was certainly fin

Usual suspects are Freshservice, Jira Service Desk and our (very) own InvGate Service Desk (demo instance link below because how can I not pitch my own product??). https://webdemo.cloud.invgate.net/

I agree that it's better, but that's the point. It's better in the same way that Service Now is better than HP Service Manager: It's essentially the same product, but started from scratch 10-20 years later. There is valu

ServiceNow is a classic Enterprise software play that I like to call "old, but new". You take the same old software, with the same old processes, the same old salespeople and sales approach, and you make a new one that is a little

Given the history of humanity, I find this take to be anywhere between optimistic and naive.

I haven't found a good enterprise (for SME's) wiki. Mediawiki is not really usable out of the box without significant work. Obvious stuff is hard to set up, e.g. private wiki with SSO.

Weather routing is already prevalent over existing satphone connections. The GFS model that is typically used for this purpose has low enough resolution that there's marginal returns to additional bandwidth or reduced latency.

You also can't use "find my phone" without tapping the 2FA notification that pops up... on your phone.

Based on my experience with Asterisk this should be as close to a set and forget service as I can think of. Meaning I literally will not even reach out to support on any normal year. For that, $400/mo should be plenty of margin. But I

I'm not sure what exactly is "enterprise" about having an IVR with 3 options and "bring your own number". RingCentral wants ~15K a year for this service, and they think "video" is a worthwhile value add (w

My experience validates this. Here's what I need: * have a few incoming, simple IVRs in different languages (with local numbers via FlyNumber) a la "press 1 for sales, press 2 for support, or wait for an operator". * route th

Ring Central seems appallingly expensive to me with their per-seat pricing (we are a software company, I need people to receive calls with a professional sounding IVR, route them to the right individual, local numbers for customers to call

There are plenty of mechanisms to tackle this problem. But you have to want to care.

It's not clear from other commenters that had similar issues that GSB would not outright ban the entire domain instead of specific subdomains. In this case, the subdomain they banned was xxx.cloudfront.net, and we know they would not b

Fascinating. I had never heard of this, and cloudfront.net is in there, which might provide a clue as to why Google only blacklisted our subdomain and not the whole thing (imagine that!). Is there any downside to being on this list?

If Google flagging its own e-mails is your idea of a perfectly reliable phishing detection system, I don't think we are going to find much common ground. For what it's worth, it's all true :) Good luck to you.
