That's one thing I didn't realize. It's only in the Bay Area (makes sense).
1. Yup you sell someone's car 2. Probably, I need to sell my car within the next year and it's a hassle to put the pictures online, etc. 3. You guys handle the test drive. 4. Seems good to me.
I actually chose to donate the proceeds of my book The Rapid Rubyist to Watsi. It's been pretty satisfying to know that the money will actually go for something useful! The book has been a success so that is nice too.…
Here is a link to the book. Yeah, I'm pretty shameless but haven't done much promotion yet :-) http://www.amazon.com/The-Rapid-Rubyist-ebook/dp/B00DPQ5P24
Having written a Ruby book I would definitely agree, even though my book was very modest in size it took an order of magnitude more work than I had expected. Coming up with code examples, editing, creating a book cover,…
I think it has yeah. I haven't driven any traffic there, nor have I promoted the book much at all and it moved up the charts to where it's generally in the top 5 books in it's category, sometimes higher. Over time it…
Yeah I agree. Exposure though is the issue, you'd presumably have to do a lot of self promotion otherwise. Or maybe posting to HN and reddit is enough. Not sure.
That's pretty impressive. I wrote one of the better selling Ruby books on Amazon and it would take over a year to make 5k for sure.
I spent most of the last 4 months doing all my front end work in Angular. The biggest problem I for me is that A) there are a lot of nooks an crannys and B) the views end up being pretty ugly. I've been doing more with…
No it's awesome! Don't listen to the downers. It is a lot easier to use than Bootstrap. Fewer elements, etc
I personally think this looks great. I was kinda of burnt out of Bootstrap. I'm gonna give it a shot!
What are you suggesting is a higher performance platform? You may get 2-3 times faster with some other framework but you aren't going to see an order of magnitude increase and you are probably going to be sacrificing…
The main thing you need to do in order to prevent scaling issues are making sure you aren't making an absurd amount of queries per page request. I once worked on a project that was taking close to 10 seconds at scale.…
