POODR (Practical Object Oriented Design in Ruby) by Sandi Metz is my favorite. Each idea in every chapter is backed up by a very specific example of refactoring. I can't really put a description on the type of structure, but I love the

I like your comment and a lot of your thoughts are common. Allow me to help alleviate some of your concerns. I think the root of the issue is that many "Startup Tarpits" are not talking to the right customers early on. I also thi

Three steps to make sure you get more than 1 or 2 days out of it. 1.) Make it very crappy, and put it live for the world to see. 2.) Be embarrassed that this thing you made is so crappy. 3.) Use that embarrassment to make it better. However

There are also a lot of businesses that do not want the GMail interface to change. For example, Yesware, Hubspot For Sales, and ToutApp are all built on top of GMail probably using the gmail.js library - and I'm sure there are a lot mo

I'm assuming they are using Lead Forensics - I've heard of this solution before. There are a few other competing technologies, but LF is probably the most well known. I think they do IP identification from a large number of networ

I think there's a few things you can do. 1.) You should put everything in perspective. You have a job that pays well and a family. A lot of people would be envious. 2.) Working 60 hours a week doesn't do much if you're not pr

Some of the best writers I know think that writer's block is a myth. Their theory is that if you are experiencing "writer's block", it means you need more ammunition. You need to do more research or thinking on the speci

Variety is the spice of life. Even if 6 people answer a question with roughly the same answer, they will all be a little bit different. Sometimes, it takes something worded slightly different to click for someone. I would consider this a fe

I recall thinking that I NEEDED a mentor at one point in my life. Eventually, I started learning from people online by reading their stuff and then learning from people I met offline. I never formally asked anyone to be my mentor. My guess

You can also send screenshots of mockups and ask for feedback based on those. This is something good to do to make sure you're on the right track before building anything.

Maybe you should license it to the company. I think it would be harder for them to pull the leg out from under you if they were paying a monthly fee. Even if it was something marginal like $5 a month. (Note: I'm not a lawyer) Here&#x27

I think the big thing is making yourself vulnerable to take that next leap. There's a few people you probably know (at least a little bit) from work, or meetups, or maybe they live near you. Ask them to get lunch or grab coffee. Start

No disclosures to make. I wouldn't say I'm a happy user, but I use those sites the same way I use HN. I think of them as Hacker News for marketing. Inbound.org is run by Hubspot and Sean Ellis runs Growth Hackers.
