Is the hey email client by DHH and Jason Fried (Basecamp) still able to unlock features while avoiding using apple's in-app subscription purchase? I just saw an update on this from the compliance guidelines and seems to go against the

They must be targeting people who just want to use this for internal purposes, rather than developers who want to integrate Jitsi with an existing product.

Except DIY kits are not an option to admit in court. They are not admissible. There is a temporary order allowing them to be collected during COVID-19 in California only. It is yet to see if these will even hold up.

It's interesting to see the only comments defending this startup are from newly created accounts. The article you shared appears to conflict with what this startup is offering. > It's being called a "temporary protocol&quo

It appears that if they are persevering despite putting countless rape victims at risk, they might have bad intentions. From the same article you posted: > Defense attorneys worry that allowing victims to conduct their own rape exams cou

First of all, who said this is the #1 rule of business? Lol. Did you write the only book on business? Are you Steven P Jobs? Secondly, revenues can't go to infinity. Not only is infinity an uncountable times bigger than a Googol, but m

Probably because people just complain about Godaddy but don't recommend alternatives and explain why they are trustworthy/better. Who do you use and why?

> I don't see how being a startup justifies making cancellation incredibly difficult. True. I'm questioning where is the trade-off and balance between making it more difficult to cancel vs. trying to fix what's wrong.

by glaive123 6y ago
Yeah I agree. So are you saying the problem is with "call to cancel" itself or with the response the OP got from customer service rep when he emailed them?

by glaive123 6y ago
And also the intention? Big companies like Comcast are just doing this to extract every penny. A startup trying to survive and make their product better for customers--or fix something that went wrong--is completely different situation IMO.

by glaive123 6y ago
Isn't it one thing when a faceless corporation does this, and another thing when a startup is doing this to learn about why customers are churning so they can improve their product?

by glaive123 6y ago
I personally don't think this is bad as long as: 1) They make it easy to cancel when you call 2) They only try to offer you some free stuff to stay as a customer My guess is the startup here is trying to learn why customers are cancell

A better way to think about this is from the "Born On Third Base" report looking at the Forbes 400. In 2012, it was estimated only 35% of the wealthiest people grew up in low or middle class--as opposed to 95% of the general popul

So what percentage of corporate CEOs do you figure are "psychopaths"? Of course psychopaths exists. Most people are not psychopaths, though. And especially the CEOs you mention may have problems to persist. I still prefer those &q

> that the only way to become a billionaire is by exploiting people Any statement that has the word "only" in it is guaranteed to be wrong. I wonder if PG worded it this way intentionally (straw man fallacy). Most people agree

I want to agree with this author, but sadly the business world does not agree. The reason Airtable, Notion, Monday, and others are so successful is because they do precisely the opposite of what the author is suggesting. This is the same re
