I’m curious if you (or anyone else) know of any other services that are paid-only in a traditionally free/freemium product space. Perhaps for news, or video content, or music, or something else. What else do you use today for free tha

I thought the structure was set up in such a way that only Automattic has commercial rights to the Wordpress trademark. To balance this, Wordpress.org has discretionary power on deciding whether Automattic are good stewards of the trademark

Great caveat, not trying to throw away the baby with the bathwater when it comes to cultural interviews or even personality based assessments. It can be done well. My personal take (which I admit is equally a leap of intuition) is that the

Inferring negatives from positive information sharing seems pretty adversarial to me, both in spirit and in substance. My comment was to question why the interview should be framed as something implicity adversarial to begin with. And why i

Some of the claims here feel like leaps of intuition. You claim companies don't but many companies, especially ones that are not in the tech industry, do employ personality quizzes in their screening process. Even tech companies, now t

Would you happen to have any examples showcasing their hypocrisy? Though hyperbolic, I thought the reviews were balanced. Products shouldn’t primarily be built on hype and optimism, they should fulfill a job to be done. The software for AI

I also don't believe it's about memorizing word for word but the way most of these incremental reading apps are designed rely on cloze deletions to create the "flashcards" and so it is in a sense training your ability to

The point of disagreement here is probably with regards to our definitions of happiness. What you define as happiness, I see as just forms of temporary satisfaction or pleasure. In my opinion, I think happiness isn’t the goal since it’s tem

This is a step in the right direction but it is still wrong. Yes, whatever praise or accolades you earn from work will be things you can never take with you when you pass. But the same also goes for whatever enjoyment you get from hobbies,
