Just my opinion, but I think Atlassian is a much more likely outcome.

You're right but likely in the wrong direction: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-02497-w We may be undercounting the number of deaths.

With what we're learning about Trump's response - including re-writing CDC guidelines, no organized Federal response, and an outward positioning of COVID as "it'll go away on it's own" while saying privately th

200,000 people (at least) are dead here in the US. That is not a small event that is being exaggerated by a hysterical media.

Not exactly shocking that a judge appointed by Trump would make such a statement and ruling.

Usually when I see an article like this, I start looking at the strategy because it usually means it's about to start working again. I remember an article saying "buy and hold was dead" in 2009. Marked the exact time to do bu

Assuming you're guy (and company) behind Octopus Deploy, I get it - I've marketed a DevOps-oriented tool, and it's more challenging than most. Developers generally want to be left alone with the product, and while things like

So much to digest in the article and the comments - not sure where to begin. As background, I've been running marketing teams for high tech B2B companies for about 12 years. This will be just a rambling set of thoughts that come to me

This - I'm planning on churning with a webinar tool because the only way to integrate it with Salesforce and Hubspot is an extremely complex Zap. No thank you.

Great idea - and this is an odd comment: I think you're pricing it too low relative to the number of people in the market. Just my gut - could well be wrong, wrong, and wrong again.

Not from what I see - what I see is software companies using services as a way to shorten time-to-value for the customer. They do this either themselves or via professional services firms. To me, the services you describe are software-as-a-

Having briefly worked for an AI company, I agree with the conclusion that AI companies are more like services businesses than software companies. I would add only one other thing: to me going forward there likely won't be "AI comp

I've had the experience of being ruled out as a software vendor because we weren't in the Magic Quadrant - but it generally doesn't function that way. Usually, for large enterprises, it creates a short list of vendors to eval

Even given that nuance you'll find ETFs of all types, generally with fees far less than what you pay for the equivalent mutual fund. Bottom line, for me, is that the active management employed by a large portion of the mutual fund comp

Leaving aside hedge funds, the business that I see changing most has to be mutual funds. I've seen a number of mutual fund managers who generally underperform their index for years operating a relatively high-fee fund (compared with ET

I'm probably in the minority but I find WeWork spaces horrible - just a collection of fishbowls. I can't get out of there fast enough.

Interesting given the prior acquisition of AppDynamics. If true, I think they should have taken the deal. My reasoning: I worked in the APM space and there appeared to be an upper limit to how much companies were willing to spend on APM and

I always thought their much heralded rebrand/redesign was pretty awful. It reminds me of my 70s childhood with the fonts and browns. And for me it fails in a key way: it doesn't help communicate information - I find it's actu

1. Not clear why you think this is a solution for enterprises. Business <> Enterprise. Not many large enterprises are going to take a chance on a small company given the large number of CMS systems available. If I were an enterprise

Dick Fuld significantly misrepresented the actual financial health and leverage of Lehman on public financial documents. Pretty clear Sarbox infraction. Nothing happened to him.

I never understood why Dick Fuld wasn't put in jail. He deliberately misled investors on the amount of leverage they were operating under. I thought Sarbox, which required the CEO and CFO to sign off on their public financial statement
