Mike, Raymond - big fan and daily user of the webcam. Congratulations on the new product launch announcement, very interested in becoming a customer!

Congratulations to the founders for the launch, but unfortunately I had the same response. In situations like these - intrigued but with no real understanding of what the product is - I want the video to show me a real-world example in abou

This is phenomenal work. A genuinely modern take on MUDs of old. Is multiplayer already implemented? I'm weirdly interested in starting up a good old MUD clan/guild again on an all-player killer server...

It's anecdotal, but unfortunately I'd say that the experience is much the same in single-payer Canada. I have never had a GP who is not trying to rush me out of their office as they seem to get paid by the amount of patients they

Nice deck! And terrific market positioning; in doing my own research of trying to get all organizational data in a single place in an otherwise non-technical organization, I've done demos of Fivetran and a few of your other competitors

Really interesting concept and product - perfect for the times we're in! Desperately needs a video of the product in action on that home page, get on it! :)

I'm all for an Assassin's Creed style augmented reality view of the world! But I don't see why it's something 5G would usher in over 4G (or 3G).

I remember listening to a Masters In Business podcast [1] with the President of Qualcomm and listening to his explanation of why 5G was going to be a huge game-changer. He perked my interest by mentioning that he thought that _everything_ w

It's an incredibly busy position if you're doing it right! I've had development teams of 4 - 20 reporting to me, and I think my responsibilities have generally included: - Being the point of contact between Development and th

I'm curious about a related question: Does a manager need to be the best coder on the team? How much does it help/hurt if they're not?

It still comes down to: Would you rather be seen as someone who creates value (profit), which is a "developer", or who works on odds and ends for the company and ultimately costs money, a "programmer"? Given the two opti

Let's not make Mr. Esper out to be doing this for any other reason than because of the strong and immediate backlash from the violent street-clearing that occurred in DC. This is the same guy who said to state governors, "I think

To draw anecdotally from my own experiences, its for two reasons: 1. It's simple to get started with, but complex enough to tweak to your needs in respect to simplicity of deployment, scaling and resource definition. 2. It's appea

Sorry, use of the term GUID confused things - I meant that if an identifier string is generated when you click on the ad, and the purpose is to simply see if that identifier completes the app install and first use - that's not against

Re: Ad/marketing attribution, that's not necessary correct. If the data point that gets sent back to Facebook is a GUID type string that matches the GUID that got generated when you first clicked the Facebook ad for the app and do

For those wondering why the Facebook SDK is so widely used in popular mobile apps: Facebook Login is actually in the minority of reasons to add the Facebook SDK to your mobile app. The vast majority of apps will add the Facebook SDK because

Is this a fair summary, then: A site with free-to-read content must by default load no tracking scripts/cookies - aside from those that do so in anonymized aggregate form - unless the website visitor positively confirm they're oka

I think I might be offside with this as per site rules, but does this link really need to be Breitbart? They're an incredibly deceitful organization that exist almost entirely to whip up people's bigotry and sexism. Surely another

I think there's a balance to be struck here depending on the type of site and what organization you work for. If you're thinking long term and beyond the time period that you yourself will be employed at your org, you should put s

Elastic Beanstalk comes with the load balancer already in place, I've never had to think about load balancing as a thing-to-figure-out. And Amazon Aurora lets you set up a read replica / autoscaling policy as you're setting i

I guess we only have anecdotal evidence to go on here, but except for exactly one case I've always seen the organizations I work for get and wait for a positive response to their request before they display our logo. Does everyone else

Instead of EFS, use a WordPress plug-in like WP Offload Media Lite ( https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/amazon-s3-and-cloudfront... ) that immediately moves those uploaded files to S3. Cheaper and more resilient (if y

There's a lovely WordPress plug-in called WP Offload Media Lite ( https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/amazon-s3-and-cloudfront... ) that takes the upload locally and re-ups it to an Amazon S3 bucket of your choice

This is ridiculously over the top. I run our organization's WordPress sites on Elastic Beanstalk (just do a "eb deploy" from your Git repo of the site and it gets up there), plus RDS (Amazon Aurora) and CloudFront. EB and Aur

I did click tracking on major Canadian websites such as Sportsnet.ca on these buttons (and everything else); we found that they're very rarely clicked and removing them would mean a completely insignificant change in the number of shar

I think PHP had a couple of obvious advantages - it almost had a "first mover" advantage in that it happened to be installed alongside CGI-BIN on shared webhosts way back in the way - plus Drupal and WordPress being PHP projects.
