I think this is exactly correct. Frequency of updates (and clear documentation of the lag relationship between when data is reported and for what period data is applicable too) is often missing or hard to find. The value of increasing the c

You might want to aim at industries that are seen as less desirable or trendy but have real technical problems that you'd be good at solving. It's even better if you are directly tied to a revenue generation process. Hedge funds c

Could you go into detail about how you are technically advanced relative to your competition? Would be curious to hear what that entails / differentiates you from other investment firms in the same space. The alternative data space tak

Nontraditional data is THE future of investing and engineers are best suited to find it. For instance, if you wanted to know who was spending the most to acquire users, wouldn't it make sense to get bid data from ad exchanges? If you w

Looks good. Very much looking forward to this being production ready. I am currently looking for a scheduler that provides a better UI/UX than cron alone. Currently, what do you all use for this sort of thing? Nextdoor has a not-yet-op

Cool, very interesting but is this data just scraped from AngelList? If so, is there a risk that its more representative of AngelList's growth as a platform / relevancy amongst employers?

This is interesting, it's actually uses by the SEC as well [1]. I think it still does not have 100% adoption though. [1]. http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1288776/0001288776140...

A related question - how you design a database for something as complex as a tax system? Given that tax laws can (and will change), that changing legislation often adds possible combinations to any field, and that there is surely a every &q

Sure, at the moment, I'm creating a new project and arranging elements on the page to design one group of components (for instance, the main table panel of my monitoring app). I then start with the "deepest" children that I w

Do you see this becoming an entire 'Visual Studio' style suite of tools? It's a fantastic tool. Right now, I'm mostly creating individual components (or groups of components rather that perform one functionality) and exp

Interesting. I currently use https://github.com/scrapinghub/splash but will be interesting to see how this develops.

You are definitely correct when it comes to non-software developers needing tools to do data analysis that allow for a lot more iteration and ad hoc exploration. How do you see this competing with / differentiating itself from RStudio?

ShareLaTeX is a fantastic product, thank you for making it. It's very much a Google Doc for LaTeX. I used it very extensively when I was in university. Given how many auxiliary files are generated/needed when compiling LaTeX, keep

Thanks for the response - there are some fair points here. As other commenters pointed out, the fact that you charge by minute not hour does in fact make a big difference in price, particularly for those of us that need to run intensive but

I do not understand start ups like Domino. It seems to me like it is essentially the equivalent of running an AWS instance along with a git hub account. AWS does not require any sort of hardware maintenance on your part and it takes only a
