I'm a happy customer of both Simple.com and USAA. Both are very customer focused banks. The industry is being broken down, just really really slowly.

Nice fearmongering: "The reason we use secrecy is not to hide it from the american people, not to hide it from you, but to hide it from those who walk among you who are trying to kill you." ... well in that case, please take my

We're the little guy competing against ExactTarget. I had no idea their business wasn't profitable. From their customers who have reached out to me, it seems that for web businesses to integrate with them there are huge complexities (like m

How is this becoming public information so quickly? Is this being leaked? It seems like it's not beneficial for this to become public knowledge for anyone except Tumblr if they are trying to start a bidding war.

As a .io company... when we bought our domain over a year ago, the only other io I had heard of was http://drop.io (now gone). It has been nuts how many other new companies became .io in the past year.

I had the pleasure of meeting with the Mailjet folks in New York a few weeks ago. We got in to a deep technical discussion about email infrastructure. I left the conversation really impressed by the team and their approach to the service th

I must've missed the who's hiring thread. I'll tack it on here. If you want to get in to Ember, we've been using it in production since 0.6. We'll be actively hiring people pretty soon. Deets are: We're in Manhattan, NYC. We're a team of 3.

Awesome! How did you pick those timings? And what were the responses like from the people who received the emails?

James, you're doing much better than me! I've been slipping on my reply times recently to up to 2 days which totally sucks. One thing I started doing is taking an hour of zero-distraction time every morning to fire off responses to emails t

When I heard about this product, I was excited. There are 100 small things you need to have in place when you start to become a real business. I am happy as a clam when people take one of those things and will do it for us in a way that mak

I'm in Turntable.fm almost every day. So is my cofounder and so is my girlfriend. Maybe there's not a strong viral loop going on, but my habit is formed. Anytime I want to listen to music but have no idea what, I go to turntable to "Indie w

I don't want to tell you you're doing things wrong. So I'll just share what I did. 6 years ago I was trying to get in to tech. When I would meet people, I had next to nothing to offer them. But I would find out how I could help them and ben

Hey there, sounds like what you're lacking in your current situation is a network. It becomes easier when you have other people looking out for your interests. Towards the end of last year, we (a company of 3 in new york) were running low o

You can. We did. We improved the product and charged new people a higher price while keeping early customers at their old price. Netflix was way past this point when they changed their pricing model. I believe what they're advocating is to

We have some customers grandfathered in at our earliest pricing tier: $10 per month. When we signed them up at that price, we told them that at some point in the future that would change. I think the important thing early on is to set expe

I've been running plex on an older Core 2 duo Mac Mini for a few years. Overall I love it. The downside is the Mac Mini takes a little longer when it's transcoding.

@jacquesm I felt the same way and got mad at disqus when I saw they did that without my consent. I turned off the "feature" and started looking for alternatives. Vanilla Forums looked like it provides a neat option to serve the same purpose

I'm actually experimenting with DigitalOcean for a side-project, but we've moved our main site on to dedicated hardware so no plans to try DigitalOcean for that.

You're right. We had a lot of issues with servers not being able to communicate on the internal network at the datacenter. Here's an uptime report of our hosts on Linode from Pingdom: http://i.imgur.com/KggJZ.jpg I handle customer support

"With Linode, I know that I am getting excellent support." To be honest, the poor support was one of the reasons we moved away from Linode. We were in the Newark datacenter for about 8 months with 12 linode boxes. Had frequent issues with t
