I would challenge your assertion that you need a core competency in bare metal. AWS and GCE are performant enough--you're just not using them correctly. Invest in IaaS expertise and be successful; invest in bare metal at this day and a

For evolutionary features, you're right. But I think the point in the article is that if you're trying to get to product-market fit, your customers' feature suggestions are rarely the ways to get there; you generally have to

The proof is in your hostile attitude toward her. Her post is about how she felt profoundly unwelcome in the FreeBSD community. Your response is not a counter-argument to her feeling unwelcome. As far as I can tell, your response is, "

I never said that it "gave her the right" to do anything. I said that it did not negate the bad things that happened to her. I said that we should not ignore the very serious and legitimate issues she raises because she's got

Thanks for the more specific links. She's definitely a strong activist for what she believes, and can certainly dish it out. I don't think any of that necessarily negates bad things that have happened to her, nor does it validate

I just spent far too long reading both of those links, and I don't see anything there that contradicts anything Randi said in her post. If someone is regularly and routinely attacked (and all the bullshit about "Randi can't c

It's the difference between having great documentation and full sample applications and just having a skeletal description of bare API calls. The review of API Gateway does a pretty nice job of laying out how the latter can be a pretty

What's worth reporting back is whether Rackspace is worth using in a world where AWS exists. A year ago, the answer was "No". OnMetal looks very interesting, though.

Great point--unless you need your core competency to be "innovator in HR policies", why spend any time there?

I agree that there's nothing wrong with being motivated by money as an employee, but there's lot of strong research that, as an employer, you keep more employees based upon non-monetary aspects of the job. If, as an employer, you

In my experience, those who have made it to Series A have had enough humbling experiences to have learned how to hide obvious arrogance. I would agree with your assessment of brand-new CEOs, though.

I don't think that the mediocrity of other tech organizations implies that functioning ones are "badass". It's a sad state of the world that "actually shipping products that work" qualifies for awesome/ge

I think it does apply to non-startups as well, because the "outsourcing" I'm talking about with software development is really just using existing tools and frameworks, not bringing new developers into the fold. For example,

by joeemison 13y ago
You miss the point--you're talking about outsourcing development. The point of the article is to use libraries whereever you can, not to oursource all development to non-in-house developers. (The other reply to this gets it).
