Not a value judgement on either opinion, but, ironically, there is a buddhist perspective here which would rhyme with: that's exactly what you are doing in your normal life without children every second while chasing your ambition. And

If you are technical, I would recommend looking at the open-source Python ecosystem to create reports and dashboards. It has amazing analysis and visualization libraries (like Altair and Plotly). We are building an open-source library to cr

I think many compelling companies come from rigorously testing lots of possible solutions for a problem that the founders understand deeply. You might experiment and fail with 10 different ways to solve that problem, before one of them stic

Nice work on a cool side project! Just my 2c, but I would find this more useful as a place to validate and support early pain-points, as opposed to solutions. Validating that a genuine burning pain exists for a small group of people - with

Nice work! We had to solve this problem a few years ago and iterated through a bunch of technical solutions and rabbit holes. Funnily enough, the best performing solution for users was having the two PDFs rendered as images with a slider to

It's still early in the space, but there are real advantages to defining visualisations, metrics, and reports in a code-first way. Aside from being able to do more powerful things with something like pandas as opposed to Tableau, being

In this sort of deal, is it common for the buyer (or whoever is leveraging them) to purchase some sort of hedge to protect themselves from the stock price diving during the DD or legal process? For instance, if I agree to buy company for $X

Strangely, I've observed the same behaviour with people on the exact opposite side of the spectrum too (i.e. UHNW). A friend of mine worked on superyachts which were £400k a week to rent. He said that without fail the owners would be p

I use a combination of Brave + Blokada which seems to work well (I haven't seen an ad in over a year, I don't think). Turning off Blokada is horrifying.

I wonder if the quality of other data processing frameworks is also getting 'good enough' for many use-cases, and they often have less complexity than Spark. With Hadoop, many companies bought clusters because they thought they ne
