Well, this is a great point. Gmail eventually grew into a B2B-B2C model. Users get a reliable mail service with a nice interface, Google gets ads revenue, and then Google sell business Gsuite. There is a trio-business relationship, hence wh

Yes, exactly. Free users are likely not going to stick UNTIL very later. I remember using lucidchart.com from time to time. I just needed a quick sketch and I could bypass the free limit with some careful tricks. Until I was required to mak

I am going to ask, do you want to try this scenario on your own in real life? Because often we make general statements while we don’t actually practice what we say to others when the issue is going to hurt ourselves.

Portfolio only buy a small amount of shares which have low return. Try buy some from Stash which offers a basic way to invest in stocks. You certainly are welcome to invest in the high risk portfolio, but it's so risky you are likely t

Here is another advice. If you can't afford buying a house in Bay Area, and you need the extra cash, you may consider buying a house in Southern part of the country. It is usually about $50,000 - $100,000. Then you can rent out to coll

Risk is unavoidable, but we have weigh the long term risk. Blue chip stocks are great for long-term but very low return and probably don’t worth anything.... The problem with the mortage crisis in 2008 has to do with bad credit. If you save

My take is different and I don’t think there is one way to live either. I take my dad’s words: spend the money and time well, and enjoy your life. So save enough every month and get a good meal either alone or treat your family to a good br

Right! Worth sharing I am a DevOps so I do production support. One night I was at the dinner table fixing some horrible issue. My sister and brother-in-law asked why I was frowning. Initially I refused to explain the situation but they conv

This reminds me to hate AWS Lambda. I am not sure if anything has changed since my last use (around spring of 2017). I wrote my code in Python, and wanted to use psycopg2 to connect to my PG RDS instance. Luck out, yike! I was told to commi

Yeah running a registry is the better option, although another solution is forking / committing the dependencies in a separate repository, and use branch + shallow clone to keep the download size small.

Nature-inspired recipes can be categorized as "biomimicry". I came across this video [1] the other day, which described the design inspirations the Japan’s Shinkansen bullet train took from nature. [1]: https://www.vox.

Certainly a factor, but honestly, I really think this is about building up the business. Uber burns so much money through its quick expansion. You could be the first, one and only one entirely, and last standing, but what really matters is

You are missing the point. If spinoff, Uber is the parent company. Spinoff is not to remove the new company entirely, just financially and operationally. It's only telling the world "our main company - the one in IPO, will strengt
