I've written a couple of technical books, and then I've helped my wife grow her business as a USA Today best selling romance author. The biggest challenge here, to me, isn't writing the book or figuring out what tools to use,

I currently use my spreadsheet and then just need an app to categorize the transactions and sum them up for me. I used to use Penny, until they got bought and are shutting down. Now I use NerdWallet's new spending tracking feature.

Looks great for web content, but how does it support the workflow of signing up for a website on my browser and then downloading their mobile app, and signing in on the app without a password? Or is that TBD?

Great post Dan! Especially appreciate the detailed explanation of a founding engineer. Also gave a +1 to fizx for the note about a board seat. Important for sure.

Here's my anecdote: my wife is an author on Amazon and personally knows most of the people who review her books. FakeSpot gave her most popular book an F grade because people were "suspiciously positive". Most people leaving

Way to go Netlify. I've been a customer since BitBalloon and this team does great work in a trend that I'm really glad to see. Edit: a downvote? Really?

This is definitely true. I first moved to Boulder in a crappy small apartment, but when I wanted to buy a house, I moved way out east and commuted. With the housing market the way it is, I was able to sell that house in 3 years with a big p

All great points. For me, connecting to wifi networks has been a huge pain with iOS 10. In settings, I'll see a checkmark next to the wifi network name, but no wifi signal icon in the status bar or connectivity. Stays like that for 2-3
