Your son is cool.
I sense sarcasm
Hell yeah!! Time to move to stripe.
I do get the feeling that Atwood has become a MS marketing tool. I wonder how much free stuff he is getting for these posts.
App Stores are monopolistic on the platform they serve. If I want to build Mac Apps, I have to go through the App Store. Yes, I could make it a web app, but that would limit the types of apps I can create.
Before he listed the threats, I immediately thought "App stores" due to my recent debacle with Apple. Bam, there it was listed. Great article.
Nice work Chartio team!
What would make more money: Paul Graham lunches everyday for a month at a lower price or limiting supply to 1 Paul Graham lunch at the coming auction price?
too late =)
Similar to what Swivel was trying to do. Great idea, nice execution, but really how will you monetize this? There is no real market for consumer grade "intuitive" statistical software. While this will appeal to casual…
Its really all due to the Mac App Store. Having a free lite version helps. My conversion from lite to paid is around 6%
What is definitely dead are Java Swing apps. I believe desktop BCC was a Swing app. Swing app installation and updates are a major pain. Native apps on an App Store dont suffer from these issues, and their ability to…

Well he is only 17. Did you know about Markov chains when you were 17?
Definitely Bill Gate's Mini-Me
Thanks for the laugh
whats the license?
Totally. In fact, colleges should publish outcome stats -- what percent graduating in degree X got a job in their field within 9 months? And at what median starting salary? Dismal numbers would cause many students to…
Too many people confuse a college degree with functional skills. College is a good place to gain functional skills, but in the age of grade inflation, a degree does not imply you've gained any.
good point, in other words its a bunch of guys without girlfriends.
One idea is to put sensitive data into an image (for example the prices), and only serve the image to the user. While images themselves can be scraped, it is much harder than text.
