I built a Mandrill clone based on SES, Google AppEngine, Phoenix/Elixir. I moved everything there and it works pretty well, planning to open source it at some point.

Unfortunately this is standard MailChimp way of doing things ever since they screwed over paying customers and merged with Mandrill [1]. They are the opposite of a transparent organization - they are the GoDaddy of this business. (I was sup

Everybody makes mistakes, and that's fine. The issue itself can be forgiven for a technical design flaw. BUT, what is NOT fine is trying to censor customers who have paid a lot of money for these products, trying to voice their concern

Is it still called stock manipulation if the bug is critical and for real and the company deserves to lose shareholder value simply for the critical nature of the bug? Imagine how many people are vulnerable out there - I'm already star

The genuineness of the Twitter account is absolutely irrelevant in contrast to the validity of the bug itself. Apple was reported a high priority bug at a specific time. Who reported it, how they look like, what their Twitter profile looks

This is a dark pattern usually dying companies like to follow. Why? Because, if you are confident of the value you provide to your customer, you don't need to be so aggressive about not letting them go. Yes, retention is an important K

There is one more aspect of fraud the journalist has missed - chargeback fraud. Chargeback fraud is where companies try to lengthen the timeline of resolution of a fraudulent incident such as this one so that it exceeds your bank's off

Machine learning is literally a numbers game. The bigger and higher quality your data set, the better your models. So, it's contradictory that a company like Apple assuming they've taken a "privacy first" stance, can als

I don't think Apple has advancements in machine learning tech as much as its competitors. For example, take a look at how primitive Siri is. It struggles a lot in comparison to its competitors even for some basic commands. Or, take a l

It baffles me why you would do all that serious planning to commit such hifi murders but, somehow screw it all up by carrying a device that is designed to track your location, activities and probably other data (like heart beat rate) that

Sorry for the lack of clarity, I have since edited my post. They asked me for 1/3rd of my price - Not going down by 1/3rd, but rather 1/3rd of my quoted salary. So, if it was 100k, he was asking me for 33k.

There's an interesting downside about remote work that most articles don't talk about. Pay. The brutal fact is most companies simply re-brand outsourcing as "Remote" employees. Case in point, a few years ago, a DIY websi

The iPhone XR is failing because of Apple's arrogance. They shoved in a 720p display into a smartphone in 2018. They even dismissed concerns about it[1]. The other reason is there are too many models in their lineup in a desperate atte

Of course, I have used Django (and I still do for data-heavy applications). Python and ruby are quite similar syntactically, but very different philosophically. This is beautifully elaborated on this page here: https://rubyonrail

If you can do all the above, then you already have some basic sales skills. A developer - needs to "sell" his solution to his teams/managers A trainer needs to sell his trainings to get students to come visit. A tech conferen

Sales is not just about cold calls. This is a common misconception. Cold calling is just one aspect of it. You can skip cold calling as a channel and pursue other channels of interest. In fact, these days, cold calling doesn't work wel

I would move to sales. Sales is the only skill that helps you make money fast , if that's your goal. What I really mean by that is as you get better at Sales, you increase your "personal conversion rate" - which I define as

Is there any way someone outside of the US can get access to these trainings? That would be awesome for someone like me trying to switch gears from being in development and just entering sales. I understand the other alternative is to provi
