VC funding is primary reason that reddit reached the current situation. Another VC funded alternative will follow the same death spiral. Link aggregators/social networks cannot generate VC expected returns without dying in the process.

Interesting idea. But not sure how much you can rely on results for B2B ideas (might be good for consumer facing apps/services) >> P.S. Registering is frictionless, just need username and password, email is optional, no email val

Oh forgot to mention. It only works if you have custom view that's set to show 3 weeks :( Someone needs to make a chrome extension to shift Google Cal 1 week at a time. Cause the engineers at google sure aren't gonna do it :(

Just FYI Google Calendar web does allow you to shift your calendar view 1 week at a time (i.e. you can see 2 weeks from feb, 2 weeks for march). The UX for it is just super hidden and cumbersome. In the top left, there is a date selector. C

I think. This is so true. At certain point the software is done. And the only way to "improve" the software, is to just build adjacent software to enter horizontal or vertical markets.

This looks like something I wanted to build. Great idea. Currently using YouTube music, and its pretty good, except for one annoying bug that drives me crazy.

I wish I could force the Workday CEO to fill out expense reports 8 hours a day using his own software. I bet the software would improve pretty quick.

I agree git is not user friendly. But there are 2 solutions, that are pretty low friction 1. There are great cheatsheets online that you can just print out and keep on your desk. 2. Write a user friendly cli wrapper on top of git (i think t

Hey. I looked up redlining, but I am not sure how it relates to bidding. Could you explain your point in a bit more detail. I am kinda curious.

It would be same as the regular bidding process. Except that the gov't picks and pays for the contract (construction), instead of the local residents. For service and maintenance contract the gov't would subsidize the monthly fees

by snisarenko 6y ago
That's a good point. The law can have an exception for communities that get less than 5 bids. If that happens the gov't builds the infrastructure.

by snisarenko 6y ago
I think the government involvement should be minimal. They should create a law that requires bidding on local infrastructure, and enforce that the bidding process is fair, and the selection/voting process is fair.

The writer forgot to mention the most important barrier - Basic economics. Last mile infrastructure is always a winner takes all market. Even if all the barriers to entry are removed, you won't have 20 different providers competing in

Yep, I agree with this idea. Aggregators and directories should be separate services from the actual blogs, content. If you don't like the censorship/curation on one aggregator, you can go to a different one. I started working a l
