This is good! I wonder if this is another reason people like Typeform's UI - they only show you one question at a time.

Good points. Most of these also apply to people applying for a job as well: it's best not to make a deal with the devil. ;)

Financial desperation squeezes the cognitive juice right out of you. In 2013, Harvard researchers did a study of how financial stress affects decision making. Denise Cummins, Ph.D. explains their findings in Psychology Today: "When the

This is cool. What was your motivation for building it?

Couldn't agree more. It's the same for business / marketing / sales folks too. This incentivizes people to be founders, because first employees get a terrible deal (comparatively). It's odd that we reward people tha

I agree: I see movement at the top (Gates, Elon, Google, Cook). But it doesn't feel like there's much of a grassroots movement. Maybe I'm just missing them, but are there examples of this? I've been looking for prominent

I wrote out a 3 month promotion plan. It included items like: 1. Do a paid beta. Many of those early readers helped create that early buzz. 2. Writing individual emails to people I know (like Hiten). I gave them a copy to review and asked d

Really good: I've sold 433 copies so far (in all 3 tiers). Getting responses like this from readers has been my favorite part: https://twitter.com/hrishio/status/664054767581294592 It definitely struck a chor

The inspiration for this project was that I kept getting this question: "I just launched my app. How do I get users?" I wrote this book specifically for people in these three stages: 1. Developers who want to build a product, but

The first example is about using /giphy. The second example is about using /remind. The third example is about using a command called /tweet. None of those are from software development workflows. It's not until the four

I've been thinking a lot lately about the beauty and simplicity of the command-line's design. It has a lot less dependencies and complexity. Slack's command-line seems to have good discoverability and uptake: http:/&#x2

What metric are we using to determine who "won" here? Did Jira "win" just because OP likes it better? Because both companies are private, we don't really know how much profit either product has made.

Slack is great at pulling in notifications + conversation. But it's not great for pushing out action based on those inputs. If I want to react immediately, I have to use another tool. This tool allows teams to create, delete, and manag

Didn't know about the reply function in Slack's API. This would allow you to send a private message to the user in the #general channel, correct? I can see that being super helpful with a few integrations I'm thinking about
