You're pitching yourself wrong here, and based off your other comment. Those things are not blots. Here are a few counters that pitch better Every language teaches us new things, haskell might not be my language of choice but it's

Seconded. This is a perk not a given. You might get to program in a language you love and you might even get to work on projects you love doing parts of the project you love, but not always. Every part of software development at big compani

Yes but you can't clone from something that doesn't exist. YOU have to provide things to clone from.

Some actual feedback about the product instead of just the marketing website: - You need to make it possible to clone an existing template that shows of the features, see Notion as an example of where you almost always start from a template

Honestly, it's a Show HN. They might not have customers yet, and in which case SOMETHING has to go on the marketing site or you'd be complaining about the lack of testimonials.

In my experience, rich people are rich because they know how to manage their money (in addition to earning it, building it). It's only the people that care about status (i.e. appearing rich) that flaunt their money around. That's

Was going to say the same thing, the marketing website doesn't convey enough about the product. Congrats on launching though. Step 1 complete.

I like this angle. There was a great article on ACOUP about the weaknesses when using ChatGPT for writing essays (including many out and out errors). This is definitely a novel approach to using ChatGPT's weaknesses as a tool to aid le

One thing I recommend in this situation is forming alumni groups if they don't already exist. Regardless of whether it's layoffs or through just reaching the end of your journey it's a great time to form and/or retain yo

We can't let past failure stop the criticisms of genocide and slips into authoritarian behaviour. We all (globally) have to try to hold each other to account.

I consider myself on the left and have spent a bit of time in the UK (Usually vote Labour/Green in Australia). Labour does seem fairly inept in the UK, not certain I could vote for them if given the right. Certainly Corbyn running arou

Between India and China you're looking at roughly a 1/4 of the world population. This makes it hard to use sanctions in ways that work better against smaller, less critical countries (like Iran, Myanmar). Even Russia, which doesn&

So instead you're running only on the backup provider now. Congratulations on invalidating your multi-cloud strategy. You've failed to understand that the core reason you had that strategy is that any of them can let you down. Eve

This is the height of knee-jerk reactions, worse still it's largely pointless. Unless you're big enough to negotiate a specific contract with a cloud provider you're always going to be at the mercy of their catch-all policy.

I understand the need to charge money for things, but the $150 per month pretty much rules out any bootstrapped startups.

Was going to say almost exactly the same thing. Etsy is a far better place to start for this kind of thing. Makes it easy to add some level of internal/external advertising as well to get started.

It doesn't surprise me that this is a problem in less well established Wikipedia languages. I'm also very glad that the broader entity is aware and dealing with these matters.

I'm part of the problem not part of the solution and I know it. I spend almost all of my time in AirBnBs and other short term accommodation and I will rarely if ever leave a negative review. This is for several reasons. Firstly I stay

Not the OP, but it can go both ways I guess. I believe in being contactable and subscribe the the patio11 approach. If you email me as a human, I'm going to read it and if I don't reply it's probably because something interru

One of the great things about humans is the ability to take one experience and abstract it to gain knowledge about others. In this case I was implying (as was my sibling comment) that resigning isn't necessarily impossible to undo. Hig
