   People pay for group workout sessions though. They can work out by themselves but they pay to get their motivation up.

   I was amazed by how easy it was to do a self checkout at Uniqlo. I think they just use smart labels with RFID. The tech has been around for quite a while. Why don’t more retail stores do this?

   I was going to say the downside of not being able to support the platforms other than Mac seems too big. But I think it makes sense if the experience is 10x better on Mac because of it being a native app. After you build a good fanbase, you

   For me, it's this comment ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224 ) that argued Dropbox wasn't useful and was going to fail. Both the comment and its replies (by Drew at the time when Dropbox wasn't known)

    Everything in this article makes sense to me. But sadly, I don’t know how useful it is to the aspiring founders who are trying to build a product right now. It’s relatively straightforward to see Figma’s success depended on these reasons bu

    Wow awesome! I really like the simplicity of it and I am impressed you shipped this in 3 weeks! Supporting custom domains and certificates for them was more annoying than I had expected when I tried it.

    Interesting points. I disagree with one of the points that argues Apple should favor the “real apps,” which I assume refer to native iOS apps. Users don’t care what stack developers use as long as the product does its job and developers for

    Snapchat was founded in 2011 when people thought there couldn't be any other successful social media company. On the other hand, Salesforce, an epitome of SAAS, was founded in 1999. I believe there are always business opportunities and

    Having worked at an early startup, I share the opposite view: startup options are much worse than they look. The expected cost of not working at a big company is much larger than mere 10% (go check levels.fyi if you're curious) that th

    I think you might be getting too little. It's common to get 200k+ in Bay area with your level of experience. That doubles once you become senior (usually 3-6 YOE). So think about how much less you are getting paid by working there and

    I've always been interested in how this model would play out. I guess the service would be a lot more favored by the employees than the employers. It should really look for ways to genuinely benefit the employers as well by becoming an
