I appreciate your point that some products are really not SaaS-oriented, yet try to be. But your two examples here seem exactly the kind of long-term customer relationships that benefits from SaaS. And may in fact be underutilized . Thes

It is indeed curiously unspoken among the major providers. (Softlayer too raised all their bw rates when IBM bought them.) Part of building a moat? On one side we have a big stack of custom APIs. On the other -- once you have a few hundr

A recent survey of startup tech floated on HN, and Ruby + Ruby on Rails took 30+%. Along with Python and others, the majority was sedate, but robust and mature technologies. I was pleased most startups are not wasting precious cycles chas

The article stops short of highlighting the most explosive detail. The study’s investigators suppressed these data just as one of them, Ancel Keys, was consolidating political power and unifying opinion around his cholesterol hypothesis.

This one happens to be open source ( https://github.com/tommoor/HackerNew ), but you can always unpack plugins, take a look at their Javascript, and if you don't like what you see, repack with your own modifications

Over-secretion of both insulin, and subsequently glucose, is the _result_ of insulin resistance as your liver tries to adapt at various stages.

Tangentially, "post-lunch carb crash" means you have insulin resistance and should be restricting carbohydrates, either low-carb or ketogenic. You'll know you set the dial properly when you no longer droop after a meal. Tha

Note this is also relevant to any external dependency, re degraded performance and outright failures of third-party hosting. Apply to all vendors. (See sibling comment about typography.com failure mode.)

The license fee is only a minor portion of your internal would-be licensing cost; think of it as an agency rate-limiter. This tweet mentions $100K, before insurance bonds, but others have estimated more. https://twitter.com&#x2F

Yes, it's unfortunate the quacks have muddied the waters for ketogenic therapies, but luckily there's enough tantalizing science coupled with a low barrier for self-experimentation (assuming one has a few months+ of relative heal

It helps if you're already in ketosis (on a ketogenic diet), so you don't pay physical switching costs (day 2 and 3 are hardest). I can drop meals or whole days without much body-grumbling, as is the common experience. And you mu

There is justified pessimism here about getting enterprise checks paid on time. An early colleague taught me to make relationships inside the accounting department, address invoices and questions to one or two people specifically and perso

Assuming the real percentage is much lower, objects have already been lost (of 2T total in April 2013). But given the high write to read ratio, the owners may never discover this.

The newer data shows the same feeble trend as before. A little plus, a little minus. Press releases notwishstanding the signal has been weak and remains weak. Best to avoid confirmation bias here.

Can you unpack on why begin a new protocol with an algorithm in doubt? I understand implementations are well understood, but the "incentivizing the verification of its security" period will seem small comfort when the break comes

I think it's great. As I say, I'd use the opportunity to learn about uptake and natural price boundaries, while awarding early customers.

Interesting price hack: $1/mo (1 left), $3/mo (5 left). Are these escalating, à la Pinboard? Useful for price discovery, though up-from-the-bottom nudges artificial asymptotes (see pricing discontinuities).

There is a link, but it's not what was previously understood. See the following for a set of markers you should be tracking, thoroughly referenced for further reading. (Skip the first section if ketogenic is not for you.) http:&#x2

Even to a type enthusiast, their ~equal partnership rang like a bell. Can Frere-Jones be blamed (putting aside legalities) for his lapse? Just reminisce, a mere 8 years, no Venture Hacks and Y Combinator, no bright lights on the way naifs

Unless you are hypertensive, there is no evidence you need to do this. Blanket low-salt recommendations are not supported by RCTs.

Unless interviewers are trained to provide honest (and we hope, compassionate) feedback to candidates as soon as is clear, the natural desire is to run away from a face-to-face rejection. Thus, except for definitive no-hire's, it&#x27
