PG really only stirs up controversy because he won't admit the fact that we're all biased to some degree. Even women in tech are biased against women in tech. It's natural because pattern matching is natural, and female devel

Understanding your company's product, marketing, financials, hiring, and business strategy makes you an _incredibly_ valuable employee (though perhaps difficult to describe with a job title). An employee like that shouldn't be spe

This is great, nice job! I work at Keen IO and we're kind of obsessed with smart device event data. Do you think Spark users would be interested in an API to collect & query all their Spark events? For example we have integrations

I'm a big fan of MG and this was so great! It really does paint the story in a new way. Thanks for sharing. Still, David was intent on destroying Goliath. I want our company to be the best at what we do, but that's not the same as

Hi! I'm on the Keen IO team. We have a limit around 1000 properties per event. For small accounts, we don't currently enforce data archiving, so your data sticks around as long as you want it to. For large volume customers, where

The title was definitely a surprise! We don't see ourselves as David to Google's Goliath, though that title & dramatic shadowy photo might have you believe otherwise. :)

(Note: I work at Keen IO) Heap is cool! Clicks in JavaScript are just one type of event data. You might also have events coming from your backend servers, mobile apps, smart devices, etc. A tool like heapanalytics is a great example of some

Everyone is sexist to some degree, even women, even me. We all have unconscious biases because that's the way the human brain works. We do pattern matching. And we currently live in an environment where women are _usually_ not amazing

Don't be fooled by this clever marketing for a scam service! Keen IO is the true market leader in /dev/null as a service! We released in April 2013 and have been serving customers with a 100% satisfaction rating ever since. S

Thanks for responding. I wonder if we just have too many friends on HN? We are not asking people to vote. Hmm.... I didn't tell anyone about today's post, although we did tweet about it. Maybe getting too many votes in a short per
