I'm really bullish on this concept. I learned how to code coming from a finance background, and the mental shift from Excel to relational database felt natural enough, but the lack of Excel-like ways to interact with those databases ha

You’re exactly right. Portfolio size is absolutely the key here. To give yourself a fighting chance of finding an outlier-type return, you need to have some diversification... Gerry Neumann did a great post breaking down some of the math on

Corey is both on-point and hilarious and his newsletter[0] is worth reading. This particular post really resonated with me because AWS gets so much run for being impossible to compete with, but really it's not hard... you just have to

It's fun seeing the comments here and the two sides of this. For me, being a team of 1, I pay for gsuite, Streak, Calendly, Docsend, Hellosign, and github. When I add a few staff members, I'll happily pay for Slack and Notion. Yes

Author here. You are completely right. There are a million ways the analogy breaks down: consumer vs enterprise, marketplace vs IaaS... It was more just that looking at the console jogged my memory in a visual way and I do believe there are
