Thank you for doing that. We're all better off with people who use their good fortune to help others in need.

Agreed - quite a shock to realize the type of person who is now in charge (haven't kept up to date on leadership here)

Funny how serious / loner type people often open up when you ask them to help spot your bench press. At least that's been my experience, that moment of them helping you out at your vulnerable time somehow lowers the guard / t

An interesting read on the relative likelihood of consciousness of various lifeforms on earth: https://rethinkpriorities.org/publications/opinion-estimatin... Long story short, relative chance of plant consciousness is

Growing up always thought about the thought experiment of how aliens would treat us compared with how we treat our fellow sentient beings in the animal kingdom (I couldn't find a good answer and stopped consuming animals). Now with a p

What startup deliberately builds back doors to siphon away customer funds with the knowledge of only the founders, and deliberately misleads internal finance folks. Who "lends" customer funds without any documentation to let found

Can it be for week or month instead of current day?

Nice but this would be better as an app with notifications.. hard to remember to return daily to a website

We're meant to be the new product guys and come up with the new ideas, asking users to come up with new product suggestions is a recipe for a product that does a lot and not well. In a past web forum I used to admin the users would ask

Good to see real numbers in these sort of articles.. But let’s face it - users are never going to tell you what they need...or what you should build. Shouldn’t they have spent more time building a great product first - before launching it?

Nice write up. Interesting how you discovered a different use case with the tech and ran with it

Good question - we see a lot of value in our tool, hence are leaning towards paid rather than free plans ala basecamp or zendesk. We're also bootstrapped so really focussed on bringing in revenue earlier..

Thanks for the feedback, yes agree about having a way to export data. Luckily we have that built in but have to implement the "not allow them to do further data entry" part..

Good question - our definition of best is the one that would maximise total revenue coming in (not so concerned with the number of accounts). ie- weighing the negatives of dropping more people at the start vs increased revenue of the remai

As a splitforce user this is pretty cool.. biggest issue is having to wait for conclusive results, whatever speeds this up and auto prunes away the losing options is welcome.

Good point about Steam. The community part is more important than the visual identity. Actually the avatar as a 2d icon or profile pic could do ok. Like in all the fb games.

I think also minecraft abstracts the detail, allowing you to use more imagination.

I'm also in the industry and I second this. Speak plain English and explain in a nustshell what you do for whom. Investors and brands are busy, make it easy for them.

Thanks for the blog post and valid point of view. Couple of suggestions on your business: - I couldn't find your site by googling play api. I think that's a pretty bad situation for prospective investors - your logo is one of the most unre

Applaud a great start! Add iOS support and a chrome extension and reverse direction as well and I'd use this all day every day.

So the top grossing game doesn't actually have any gameplay. Does anyone else find this strange?

This happens all the time on the web as best practice. Don't see how mobile is different, especially when they seem to have the privacy options built in.

I had another problem - turned up to an ABnB place that was nothing at all like what was advertised and not at all acceptable for my needs (private room, non smoking etc). The photos didn't even match. I had to move out and find a motel f

Thanks, pushed back a bit and they seemed willing to compromise, so I guess it was just standard negotiating fare
