It's just my opinion, and I have no factual basis. It's an appeal to common sense, but I stand by it nonetheless.

I meant the STEM work as an example (hence the eg.) -- sorry if I wasn't more clear. You could just as easily substitute any "skilled" profession -- medicine, etc. All work can certainly be fulfilling, but more because of the

There will always be work that some find unglamorous but has to be done. I doubt that garbage collectors see their job as a higher calling or a passion, and yet without solid waste collection society would literally collapse. Somehow, you

I love TypeScript, and after spending a few years writing JavaScript and CoffeeScript, I've switched to using TypeScript whenever I possibly can. The only bad thing that I can say about it is that the management of type definition (.d.

Languages constantly evolve. Java was created 20 years ago and it's still receiving regular updates.

Before the app store model became popular, it was much more expensive and difficult to get your content published. Until 10 or so years ago, the most common channel for selling video games was retail, which meant you had to go through a pub

Hey everyone! Happy to answer any questions about the product or the tech behind it: React + RethinkDB + Node.js. This is our second startup. In 2009, we founded AgileZen, which was one of the first kanban project management apps. (Think Tr

They've been reinvesting potential profit into the company in order to grow R&D. (Spend has increased from $57M in FY13 to $141M in FY15.) Their gross margins are probably what you want to look at instead, since their cost of reven

It's hard for me to get that from what you wrote. It seemed that your point was more that the existence of Twitter means it's easy to reproduce it, but before Twitter, it was difficult to envision a site like Twitter. My counterpo

You could create something that looks like Twitter, but you couldn't create Twitter. Ignoring the network effects and scale that Twitter has is ignoring its primary value.

Yeesh. Lay off the Nietzsche.

What you really mean is that you wouldn't be willing to pay $15/month. That's reasonable, but another thing entirely.

I really have no idea why you're getting such bad feedback on your comment. It's kind of terrifying to see such negative responses to the idea that people should save money.

We've been using compose.io with good success.

I'm using pretty much the same setup, and the only trouble I have is that simple React exceptions can cause webpack-dev-server to terminate. It's not the end of the world, just kind of annoying to have to restart the dev server if

...which is why they still accept applications for solo founders, but are straightforward about it knocking you down a peg.

IANAL, but they almost certainly don't need permission. Typically you just need a message that says X is a registered trademark of Y. GitUp is unaffiliated with Y . Also, it's entertaining to me that in one comment you say that c

Pretty much every SV startup raises investment, also. Without that, giving a product away for free and "figuring it out later" doesn't really work.

I highly doubt that this is the kind of economic dependence that they were referring to. There are many more women who choose to forego their own education or career advancement to stay at home to raise a family, and without the income of t

This is not a thing that exists in the real world. There is absolutely no science whatsoever to back this nonsense up.

Thanks, on all counts. :)

Sure Matt, I remember! We come back every now and again, so we'll have to take you up on that offer.

The new platform is light years ahead of the old one. Part of that is six years difference in technology, part of it is that I have another six years of experience, but mostly it's a difference in mindset. RethinkDB and React in partic

Zen was ASP.NET MVC, SQL Server, and a big mess of jQuery. TaskTorch is React, Node, and RethinkDB.
