That’s 3 emails a day for 10 people... what have you built that requires that level of communication with family and close friends?

Hobbyist to me means that you are doing it for fun and aren't engaging more than 5-10 people. So given that, I'm having a hard time understanding how 10 people could handle 625 emails a month.

Then the next news article will read "Amazon stores the locations of where you are in your ebooks!". You can't have your cake and eat it too, amazon needs to store something to make this feature work.

His Ugly and Bad aren't that bad! I'd be happy if those were my standups. Right now for me, the project managers own the whole event. You are asked for an update on a task that is on the project managers list, you give your update

Most people know what an iPhone X (or similar device) feels like. Not many people have held calipers (or remember what holding them feels like) and not many people can put into context what a marking on a ruler actually means. For a quick s

I just did a quick dive into forex trading online to see what it would take to get this setup and... is it just me or are the websites and companies that run in this space the sketchiest things ever? I definitely do not trust any of these s

Having water pipes in the ground isn't inherently bad. And why does having 70km of them affect anything? Your tap water comes from a much larger system of underground pipes, for example. The footprint of ski resorts is not that large,

The title doesn't correlate to the article at all; they don't actually know what the environmental impact of making snow is. If you pull water from a polluted source to make snow, and then that snow melts and returns to the pollut

It's a fancy blog post designed to hide the somewhat milquetoast announcement: > By 2025, we will shift to 100 percent supply of renewable energy, meaning that we will have power purchase agreements for green energy contracted for 1

I think you should put on your sales hat. I know you said that you are the "coder" and your partner is the sales person, but I think you should start selling and supporting them. Trying cold calling and cold emailing. Use some mon

Stop coding and start selling. If you have something that is up and running, you need to get it in the hands of paying customers. Until you have actual paying customers using your system, you will be guessing about what features to build. P

Those types of goods usually aren't mass advertised, e.g. high end music or video gear, mechanic's tools, etc. Peleton bikes, smart toilets, diamond rings, high-end purses, and so on are all things you can get the cheaper versions

There are people in the middle class that I call "uni-purchasers". They buy one very expensive thing, and that's their "thing" that they spend their limited amounts of money on. They give up on medium-level experien

The purpose of this article is to generate fear. It could be a company that is trying to influence decision-makers to purchase their rust-proofing solution, it could be a political arm hoping to influence voters, or it could be a geo-politi

You can have your own views and you are allowed to speak them as you wish. What you can’t do is make your personal views appear as if they are also the company’s views.

Why not? The company has a marketing and/or public relations department, it’s their job to control the messages that the company sends out. If you want to speak on behalf of the company, then join that department and learn how to do it

Every company I’ve ever worked for has had language that forbids me from speaking to the media on behalf of the company. This has nothing to do with the climate and everything to do with violating the agreement you signed when you joined th

Actually, of the $55 trillion in global debt, China owns $20 trillion. Much of this debt is going to developing countries. The rest is a mixture of private equity and governments, which would include pension funds, but they are not the larg

People play Pokémon go because it’s Pokémon, not because you get to walk around and observe the world. You’ve basically just said “eat vegetables, it’s the same mouth movements as eating candy!”

Oh I must have misread, I got hung up on their description of the previous iteration of this technology, where they needed transducers stuck to the body to detect the sound waves.

by jbob2000 7y ago
The lasers aren't generating the sound waves per se, your body is. The laser heats up your body, causing things to expand, then the laser is turned off, causing things to contract. It's the expanding and contracting of your body t

I work for an enterprise company with more than 70,000 employees. Standing up a team and getting them productive in 2 months is basically unheard of at this level. This community is heavily biased to small companies, startups, and students.

You must have a small development team that turns over infrequently. The purpose of cultivating development ecosystems is to attract developers, and quickly. We migrated to Angular 6 and were able to hire 5 front end developers and get them
