Yes, you are correct, my bad :) Clicking on screen in the Settings -> Battery says screen time on is 4h 32m. So I guess in a 4 day cycle I get to a little over 5h

I installed BatteryStats just now, and added a few screenshots to show more detailed usage data. It says screen is at ~20% - so about 20 hours of screen time.

People resent change. But smart VCs can see the markings on the door, and AngelList is quickly becoming the main channel for early stage financing - they need to be there or miss out on getting in early. I think it makes even more sense for

Hi Jason, Yes - that was the same claim I got from your support back then (score update within a second mostly) - but that breaks up a linear process into an asynchronous one (since you can't complete the purchase process immediately).

We really wanted to like Sift, as we suffer from a substantial amount of fraud attempts (as most business who sell digital products). However, their model is not a good fit for eCommerce sites, and that's a shame - it seems to be built

Lots of gems, but this is my personal favorite: "However… you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t get him to drink. Even if the water comes in the form of an endless supply of VitaminWater in the company fridge."

LTV = Life time value. Have a high ratio between customer acquisition costs and life time value in order to be profitable at scale when CAC goes up. Hope that makes sense now.

You're going to pay for those anyway if you are growing. The point is that those are fixed costs and not costs per costumer.

It's a cute interaction, but for credit-card forms you want to be obvious rather than cute. Showing all the fields a user expects to fill out instills confidence and prevents questions like "where do I input my name and card expir

So you're saying, it's fine to start with mostly incorrect data because if you get traction eventually the data will get better? I'm not sure I follow the logic. In the meantime, they're doing a disservice to the compani

I would like to offer a contrarian view. Gittip is a nice initiative, in the "thank you for developing this project" kind of way - but I doubt anyone believes they can (or will be able to) pay the rent with donations paid through
