I think I agree. Although, aren’t all employees cost centers for their companies at some level? For example, companies would choose cheaper employees for the same output, if possible, even if they are responsible for a lot of revenue.

Any flight buffs know the estimated cost of doing something like that? I’m all for having fun, and I love that they spent the money to do it

I’m all for journaling approaches, but I literally laughed out loud that their first recommendation was digital journaling (aka “plz try our app”). It kinda hurts the credibility of the rest of the list.

I do sometimes when I know that there will be a time (days/weeks) between coding sessions. Git history is an easy way to get back into the my headspace where I left off

I think the author was saying that the order of Vegas is better than the seemingly disorganized look of those apartment buildings. I doubt he was trying to argue that Vegas architecture is the best design possible

Glad I’m not the only one who thinks my cell speeds have gone down. Maybe the tech needs time to mature? Did the switch happen too early?

Totally agree. This reminds me of the Innovator's dilemma. The small company comes in, does one small thing really well, and then expands until it overthrows the large incumbent.

Very cool! You could probably sell some kind of low-effort physical product, similar to: https://shop.lasertweets.co/ . I bet there's some folks who would appreciate the coasters of their favorite repos. Or, even lower

Maybe the apps themselves are stable enough that the engineers working on them have to work on something. Is there an example of a SaaS product out there with more than one developer that isn’t interested in adding features? I don’t know of

It’s amazing how a few bad bananas can negatively impact a culture, isn’t it. The most attractive thing to me about entrepreneurship is what you described. FAANG companies so often have a few bad actors that set off a series of actions and

I have found way more satisfaction while building something for the consumer masses, rather than system-to-system integrations.

Are we even surprised at this point? Legal ramifications for these security breaches are a joke. Consumers just keep getting worked over.

Congrats, OP! What a great change. Out of curiousity, how did your relationship with food change? Also, did you have anyone in your life that supported you along your way? What was most helpful?

The easiest products are where you’re solving a product for either yourself, or someone you know well. Otherwise, try to find an online forum (e.g., discord, reddit, etc.)

Loading on mobile just has a massive "Login with Google" button, but no other info about the service. You might want to put a proper landing page in place to describe your service before asking for customer info :) Perhaps a page

Yeah Microsoft is an interesting case, since they aren’t as impacted by ecommerce spending. As far as I know, they haven’t launched a completely new service/offering that would require that many people. That might be a case of them cut

Many tech companies made the same assumptions in the last two years (e.g. online transactions/ecommerce will stay at COVID levels). Those assumptions turned out to not be true, so they are course correcting to match the current economi

I agree. "I'd have close relationships (and not feel lonely) if I could simply, accurately explain myself."<-- seems sus. Not all people who are lonely are misunderstood. Perhaps others understand the person, but don'

My guess is they will follow 1Password and have more strategies to monetize users. I wonder what the difference between the two services will be at the end of the day.

Observability is highly underrated for management. The best managers I’ve had have public calendars, so we can see what they’re spending their time. Priority is pretty clear when management is spending time on something

Isn’t it possible that since they cut costs (inhumane way to describe layoffs), as long as they keep the investment dollars the same, the percentage would go up?
