I hadn't heard of Modern Tribe before. I like the concept. It's clear that the remote work paradigm can work for small companies. What we need are more examples from large companies (like HP and IBM) to show that it can be done.

One thing that's been mentioned quite a bit: working from home has a lot of challenges (kids, distractions, no social involvement). However Remote Work doesn't necessarily mean "you must work from home". In a progressive company, I think it

I wonder if this is because there's a difference between how developers discover "new things" and how consumers + businesses discover solutions. For example, developers hear about new technology, open source projects, and products on HN, on

I wonder if there is a general aversion amongst developers towards "self-promotion". For example: even organic traffic is somewhat "self-promoted". What do you think?

Tell me more: have you tried building and selling your own apps?

Interesting: and have you done marketing for those? Or was the traffic largely organic? (if it was organic, how did folks originally hear about it?)

Are the projects you're working on "for profit" (as in, is your aim to make money with them)?

Good post. The key to good customer support: it's always about the customer, and their needs. It's not about us (the business) and our problems, our process, and our work day. Customers don't care about that. They just want good service a

If this is a hosted web app, how could I use ConvertKit on my existing app's domain? Is it possible through subdomains?

Thought provoking for me, as I've been involved in hiring folks in the past. I think the current trend is to use traditional methods of looking at a candidate (resume, cover letter, interview) and augment the background check with a combina

Most of the feedback I've received on Twitter has been focused on this line from this post: "I’m being so selfish: I’m expecting all these people to cater to my emotional need for belonging." It's interesting: I didn't realize so many peopl

It's common wisdom that Snapchat appeals particularly to those under the age of 18. This study focused only on "respondents aged 18 to 29". What people (read: the media) really want to know is "are teens sexting with Snapchat?" Naturally

Great dose of reality. The companies I respect, and use, seem to have a gradual growth curve. One new customer at a time. Chris Nagele (of Wildbit) echoed this in his "How to get 1000's of paying customers" talk: http://justinjackson.ca/ch

"Just a design" "Just a work of art" "Just a musical composition" "Just a book" "Just a piece of software" "Just a photograph" I don't think folks should be able to steal these things (or anything) just because they're "easy to copy". I als
