I really hope you can bootstrap on the side, cuz that's what I'm doing and hoping for success. I am adding some extra probability for failure by tryin to do it 100% by myself. We'll see if i end up outsourcing, contracting or

Sure. I haven't really concluded if this is a bad thing yet, but compared to previous places, this is what I have observed. And that is that we will bounce around an idea about something that is pretty (seemingly) trivial for longer th

As a remote team, communication may be what slows our team down. But on the same token, in-office communication can slow things down too.

Definitely terrifying and exhilarating. Thanks for commenting - always fun to hear how other devs start out, sometimes similar, sometimes way different.

Great point, it really is taboo, and it's great to have companies that embrace the capacity to admin "I don't know". You seem to understand how to hire effectively.

It's exactly the same. You have to add money from your other cards/accounts to the wallet balance (aka paypal balance) then you spend it from there. So how long does it take for your google wallet balance to pull money from your o

I learned vim-style through vintage style. But then I started spending a lot more time in vim on the servers. I've added custom key bindings to sublime to add to the vim-ishness. (ie } or { to jump to blank lines)

Great writeup. I'm so sick of hearing about VC funding, growth-hacking, hock-sticks, and user-acquisition and all in the name of an exit strategy. I hope to see more and more companies take this more bootstrap-ish approach to building

Benjamin Briggs makes a lot of good stuff. I'm a bit of a NES nostalgic when coding. My love for coding began in 98 when I built my first website (a Zelda 64 Ocarina of Time fan-site) http://benjaminbriggs.bandcamp.com/

when someone rejects the demand, it doesn't mean it's worth more, unless there is someone else willing to offer more. But you're dead on that it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. "worth" is a t

I went HTML then PHP (hadn't discovered CSS yet in 2004), then MySQL, then back to HTML/CSS. Then Javascript, jQuery, Ruby/Rails, since then. But I would say rails. Ruby/Rails is way easier than Javascript for new devs I

Feels similar to amazon subscription goods, but just accessible from the phone. Kinda nice idea. Wonder if it will pick up traction.

It was pretty abstract, but I think it's meant to be mostly high level. "looking at the world through the lens of software" from what I got, is just seeing all problems as solvable by software. Not sure how much deeper you ca

What about a site like Passpack? https://www.passpack.com/en/home/ - Does that mean a site like passpack is only waving its hands at its security, and that its client-side cryptography is irrelevant and basically

I don't think I would say asana is complex as far as usability. The interface and shortcuts are all pretty intuitive in my opinion. I do think though that asana's lack of opinion or convention and freedom of how to structure the t

Great feedback. Thanks for that. The primary point (although possibly poorly communicated so) was meant to help us detach from the things we identify too strongly with. And no not be insulted when those things with which we associate (our a
