Also, insurance. $200/month is a normal rate where I live (with a clean driving record).
I don't see how your point makes him wrong. If anything, it seems to reinforce his point.
Does this make it a publicly traded member co-op?
Agreed. The advice to ignore competitors and focus on customer feedback is great when you're small and a solo Dev. As the company grows and you can dedicate other resources, you can start monitoring and selectively…
This is irresponsible reporting, and irresponsibly ethically. Those companies aren't putting out GHG for fun. They're manufacturing products every single person on the planet is consuming. Those companies, while they…
With trees and porous materials, this is known as "wicking". With humans and biology, it's the clotting factor that prevents bleeding out. There are downsides to this as well, blood clots in veins and arteries can cause…
I've been recommending my clients avoid using it for minimum 6 months post "release" regardless of accessibility. Gutenberg has been changing constantly. When it's "released" it should only be released as a final…
They're small, to be sure. You get 400-500 square feet. Enough to eat, sleep, work a little from home and watch movies with company. Perfectly livable. There's both modern and older buildings at that price range.
I live in Toronto. It's relatively expensive, but the rent prices don't factor in tons of things: 1. You don't need a car, carshares like Zipcar work great, which saves $1000/month ($200/month parking, $200/month…
This is more of a problem with time frames. Wooden houses last 100-200 years if very well built. I've seen teardowns after 50, sometimes less. What's the environmental cost of building 4 wood buildings to last as long…
Physically demanding doesn't necessarily mean heavy. Moving at a rapid pace for extended periods is considered physically demanding. If you're in regular shape at 50 or 60, this is tiring but absolutely doable for a few…
They're absolutely garbage at this. When I was _forced_ into the windows 10 update, it went through the process and appeared to finish but didn't put my desktop back. No problem I figured, they put it somewhere. So I…
40mg is normal. 60mg is high dose. 80-120 is absolutely abuse except in 0.1% of the population that just doesn't respond. 20mg XR has me uneasily wired for 18+ hours. Rarely take it because of that.
It is. Monopolies only exist within context. Zero to one has a good section on this.
There's definitely something to be said about economies of scale and efficiency. But I'm talking about design and product expertise. People sourcing knockoffs can create a cheaper version 1 of a product, but only a…
I've seen this happen too. And have some insight from the seller side: 6 companies might sell the same product at varying prices, some of them uploading 1000s of items they have dropshopping for, but no real inventory.…
I can't speak to mom and pop shops in small towns. I think while the concept is the same, this would be more along the lines of the town opening it's own discount store and putting the mom and pops out of business. But…
This would defeat the purpose of private labeling, which is to make you rely on the private label brand and not the manufacturer. The private label brands wants the freedom to change manufacturers and have you stick…
The problem with this is that it's built in the backs of brands who were at one point well recognized brands on Amazon. Amazon took their sales data, determined it was a good market to move into, created specifications…
IIRC from developer stories from this era, things had to be done "creatively" to save space, and ensure optimal runtime execution. Certain platforms may well have had undocumented bugs and platform-specific…
It looks like they may have been added since you read it, as they're in the article now. What I find problematic is that they list a concentration, but no real world examples. We sell a concentrated product that…
I take it it's not a coincidence this came on the heels of the Shazam acquisition. Has anyone used both? I've used Shazam a dozen times and it's good.
I 90% agree with this. The other 10% realizes that if you had warnings and waivers for every fringe case, you'd have the worst UI in the world and had a worse UX for 99.9% of the people it didn't apply to. Do you want…
As someone else with a throwaway account, some of us come here for the ideas rather than to build a social profile. And your point about taking breaks is valid. But I agree with the parent's about not using a break as a…
