Why does this surprise anyone? Forget an app. Just a normal computer that government buys ends up paying 1.5 of what you will get on Amazon.com. This is because government does not pay on time, there is a lengthy and resource consuming proc

Those income caps are a sham. You can always pay a poor man to apply and then stay with that poor person. Also X can add Y to his agreement and X can later leave.

They are not trying to be nice by offering free plan. That is their growth strategy. By using Slack you are helping their marketing efforts. IF they even end the free plan there will be competitors and open source tools which will help you

To give a growth hacking analogy, becoming KGB head is the final step in the funnel. To be a KGB head you should probably have qualities that 99.99% of the people do not posses. But it is wrong to say he does not represent the majority of s
