What anki desperately needs (to the point years ago I explored this), is out of app nudges. I know I know, lots of folks dont like nagware, but I've found that for recreational things sometimes life happens and I just forget to go back

All opinions are my own It depends on who you're selling to; it seems like you might be doing more enterprise/b2b sales? Starting in the early aughts I transitioned from being solely technical to having been a key stakeholder

I've lived in St. Pete since 2000. If Tom was who I think he was, he was certainly a character. He'd drive around with that d * jeep blasting flight of the Valkyries.

Shopify is a big customer of theirs....this is interesting. As a shopify store operator, I'm super frustrated at a few things that we can't edit. This looks like it's not editable, but BETTER from a conversion standpoint, whi

Every health event is literally a blank check to multiple unknown providers. There's nothing to stop them from charging whatever they want.

The question is, do you do different things for YouTube vs. Patreon. Potentially, YouTube is more akin to a short lived annuity vs. a Patreon job. Maybe not, depends on the accretion of your content.

Not only that, but it creates an anti competitive environment where someone like me, who sells to US customers, subsidizes those shipments from other countries. That's the real kicker in this whole thing.

Have you read “Traction” by the founder of DuckDuckGo? It’s perfect for startups such as yourself.

I think Kevin Rose looked into recommendations at the dish level with a startup (milk?). You might consider checking to see if he posted any lessons learned.

I'm super curious how this will impact the future of elections; big cities tend to skew heavily blue. Suburbs tend to skew red. Will this change the suburbs? Example in the article was from NY to SC; SC tends to be red...

Have you read the book "Traction" (by Weinberg and Mares)? It might help you break out of the specific niche you're looking at and be able to come up with some white space to work on.

Had the same experience, except it was a pool in one of the Dakota's. I could not move, and it was completely unexpected. I recovered in a few seconds and I'm sure the pool ladder is the only reason I got out without needing rescu

It’s a 50k; Ive raced with them in 100’s and theres a reason they frequently have cloth between the sandals and their feet. My personal experience if moving to zero drop shoes was positive but took about a year before my ankles felt OK.

Democratic candidates have won the popular vote 4/5 times in the most re ent elections, but only won the Presidency 2/5. That’s an issue.

Amazon is a good cash business, but hard to build a brand on. Shopify is easier to build a brand on, but harder to make actual money on initially. If Shopify turned us off tomorrow (they can), we’d be able to continue. If Amazon did, it’s g
