I use loops.so a YC funded startup. It is a monthly charge though. But super simple to use for product updates. The "loops" part I have not used yet which is emails triggered by actions. Kind of strange that you only send a couple

This is all great. Signing and verifying software is important. But it is woefully inadequate in a post Solarwinds-Notpetya-FLAME world. We need something that allows an organization to verify that code has not been maliciously tampered wit

Alfvén was pretty much the father of the electric universe theory. From Wikipedia: In 1937, Alfvén argued that if plasma pervaded the universe, it could then carry electric currents capable of generating a galactic magnetic field.[6] After

This is great! Placed a couple of wagers and created a market. Have you read Shockwave Rider? John Brunner envisioned a network that placed odds on everything, just like this.

One thing the article does not mention is that the "Forbes Technology Council" designation is pure pay-to-play. Vendors pay about $3,000/year to get that designation for their CEO and the marketing team writes his/her s

I am an industry analyst and pay a lot of attention to head count. I use similar metrics to the author to estimate revenue for each of 2,000 companies I track. I usually have a friendly CEO in a sub-segment that will share their revenue num

I agree if it is a slick ecommerce site. But I recently went to siteoly.com to check out the Google Sheet to website capability. The chat popped up and I was talking to the creator. In a minute we were on a video call and two days later he

Why wait until a crash is imminent? Before I hop on an important video conf I have to remember to open Activity Monitor and manually kill all the FirefoxCP Web Content processes. It crashes each tab and frees up all the memory.
