I worked with Capricorn [1] for several years, and these topics were always top of mind there. They have the goal of making money first and foremost, but subject to the investments themselves being good for society, and serving LPs who do t

I read the parent comment as "If I go to a 60 year old and present them a non-excel build, they will ask me why didn't I just use excel?"

Thank you! That's such a strange place to put it. Silly me, looking on the "Settings" > "View options" page instead of the button that says "Week". Edit: doesn't look like there is the equivalent o

We really wanted to use this, but having an appointment link creates a permanent vertical "event" in your own calendar that you can't get rid of. So adding multiple appointment links (e.g. one for 30mins and one for 60mins) c

Clerk is great for new builds in the react ecosystem. We focus on more complex use cases where there are multiple user types (e.g. freemium, enterprise, partner, internal), multiple applications, or both. Having everything in one system rem

Depends on the app and the context. A lot of apps need multi-tenant access control but not necessarily separate containers etc. In those cases, "adding" multi-tenancy means maintaining an Organizations table, a Roles table, and a

Sorry I got busy today (more convos!). I'd be happy to chat or email and try to be helpful -- if you want you can check my bio.

We build a system that is multi-tenant capable but can run as single tenant until you need it. Happy to chat if helpful

Balsamiq is already so cheap. We use it for our business and every time it renews I just think they could be getting 5-10x what they are. That in turn helps drive a better business and product.

It feels like there is an analogy here with Yahoo! and the early days of going from curated lists of websites to search algorithms. Do you think of LLMs in a similar way? I.e. some kind of model ranking score that companies could eventually

We're required to have code review as part of our SOC2 process, and I assume automated agents wouldn't count. The other end of the spectrum is linting and tests, which catch errors before review. Does Ellipsis have a role between

This looks like a nice project, though it's a tricky problem. For auth, MAU is only one axis and is applicable mostly for B2C with basic authentication needs. Do you plan to add feature configuration as well (e.g. custom data residency

Directionally accurate, but in the example you've chosen it's more about economics than demographics, so they'd hug and then vote to separate anyway.

TL;DR author's dad was silly enough to think that people who don't like wine are intellectually inferior. Author learns about taste buds and finds closure.

Why should this be the case? They offer a service with hundreds of competing options (other schools), so it's hard to argue they're not offering market rate.

Honest question: why is 1/5 that much more of a problem than 18.8%?

I generally agree with your statement, but Apple goes a step further to say they believe it is a human right. That feels a little forced from a massive corporation.

I love technology but I'm an absolute luddite when it comes to drones. Something about flying a 5 pound weight a few hundred feet over others' heads really bothers me. I'd love to have this app so I can show people whenever

It's incredible to think how removing the "bottlenecks" drastically increased average lifespan around the turn of the century. Makes you wonder if there are a couple of things we could do around aging processes that would

I wouldn't consider the NFL protests a fail, given that we literally have a commentator on FOX news taking prime time to accurately describe to the audience "this is why they're protesting".

It's a crazy indication of Uber's culture that a rational, levelheaded sentiment like this is worthy of mention. In many ways, reflects the larger world we live in though...

Having started a couple myself, I'd say a few of these are industry-specific. The main thing I learned (and learned to accept) is that at the beginning, nobody cares. Potential customers don't care until you very clearly articula
