Nice! I also ran a company as a worker coop - but I structured it as an LLC, just because it was far easier. Coop practices like revenue sharing were defined through company bylaws, not its legal ownership structure. Lots of people have don

Part of the excellence of interviewcake is that it feels like it was made by a person. When you're reading passages on the site, you can tell that the same person wrote them all. When you have an issue or a suggestion, you email it in,

I would definitely read that post. I've had bad times in the past with video codecs.

Wow, this is incredibly useful. I'd love to include an option for a self-hosted stream. I looked into setting up a streaming service as well, but decided to just release it with an iframe for the time being. Thanks for sharing.

I agree, one-click deploy would be the next step. Hadn't seen helm, I was debating between k8s and rancher. If possible I'd like to avoid an opinionated hosting service like Google Cloud Launcher or AWS ECS, but I recognize that i

I had to roll my own chat system recently because the open source solutions out there were surprisingly insufficient - nothing seems to support websockets. Looking forward to the French contributions to the ecosystem! For instance: at the m

As a RN user, I'd be interested in actually seeing a piece of the content before laying down $100 for it. Maybe it's super simple stuff I already know. Maybe it's full of really useful techniques that I'll get tons of va

I really like the idea of a social web standard. This seems like a very constricting protocol, though: the one-to-one correspondence between a user and a server means I need to individually post my activity to the "inbox" of every

Tone's a perfectly valid word when talking about a fuzzy line between insightful and inflammatory. Some people on e.g. Twitter might complain that justified bans were for mere "tone", but it'd be, what, a compositional f

I'm not happy with your detaching this comment. Thanks for noting that you did it, and why, but other inflammatory comments in this thread have been tempered by well-reasoned child responses. That's reasonable dialogue. Detaching

Wow, this looks really promising. I went with Firebase when it became too obnoxious to manage websocket concurrency. I didn't even know about gun. I appreciate that the starter app doesn't try to make decisions for me about what I

This is terrible advice. I've lived the digital nomad life the author describes and worked in the areas he names [1], and his recommendation of Bangkok's Khao San Rd as a nice place to relax is alarming enough to cast doubt on eve

Excited to see this piece - an ambitious guide to developing with Plain Old Ruby and associated tools! I ended up disappointed. The piece reads in a very partisan manner, makes questionable declamations of common Ruby tools & patterns,

I rarely want to like a product more than I want to like Stockfighter, because of both the people involved and the underlying concept. But there are a million other things I want to sink time into improving. Music, my Starcraft MMR, boxing.

Hi, Matt and Kat. Cool to see the focus on helping more people start companies - I had written off an article bouncing around over the weekend alleging that rich families are the key to entrepreneurship [1]. Maybe it is true, but with enoug

Definitely not just privilege. The remote thing doesn't work unless somebody really, really good is doing the alchemy of transforming the client/user's intentions into architecture & design.
