"Join our newsletter to receive problems to your inbox" does not sound very fun. You might rephrase that to emphasize some positive outcome.

edit: I'm taking my own advice and would like to congratulate you on launching and trying to drive some social good via startups. Good luck!

Hey, that's pretty great. I didn't get a chance to test it out with another person, but I'm so happy to see WebRTC being used to keep things so simple for users. Also, nice hold music :D

Looks cool! Will remember if I'm ever needing shiny documents. I agree with those who support a one-off transaction option. (For example, I love PlaceIt and don't pay them monthly, but they might be doing good business from people like me anyway. I see those in the same boat.)

Side question: Any advice for a stats junkie wanting to transition into data science? I did graduate statistics on small data sets so I'm missing the big data piece of the puzzle.

As someone who frequently hires Wordpress freelancers, I offer this:

Don't 'sell' the client on using Wordpress relative to other frameworks. They don't need to know the complete power and limitations of the WP ecosystem; that's your job (in their eyes). Just say 'yes.'

>Can I add products later? Yes. >Can I add pages? Yes. >Can I add coupons? Yes. >Does it have SEO? Yes.

It's easy work for someone like you with sysadmin and PHP skills. Your client will love how quickly you can diagnose whatever problems they're having.

I applaud this effort! It seems to me that templating is the thing that the Wordpress ecosystem could most easily borrow from more recent development workflows. Probably makes life a lot easier for newbies to the Wordpress world, too. Cheers!

I'm tired of seeing these headlines based on one employee's departure. I'm not here to defend Valve by any means, but any sufficiently large organization will have the feature in Ellsworth's words that "it is human nature that they will minimize the work that they do and increase the control that they have," regardless of the structure. With that in mind, I think it's equally naive to think that (a) Valve has done something wrong with its organizational structure and (b) any other organization with "more" structure than Valve is doing something wrong. As much as it's become a line for dismissing people in Silicon Valley for a variety of reasons, "lack of (cultural) fit" can be a real thing.

If anyone from Stripe is watching the thread: any chance of this supporting subscriptions?

I'm super happy to see Segment go in this direction. All the e-commerce tagging was the hardest to do and yet the most valuable for analysts. And hooray for making more stuff free!

Oh wow, how fun. I learned something today; thanks!

I "see" some game images after I quit playing. I wouldn't call it "hallucinating," to use the headline's word, but I do have images of DDR or puzzle games or 2048 dance in my head after stopping playing.

Does this happen to others?

Check the footer. There are affiliate links for places to stay, cowork, exercise, etc.

I'm intuitively guessing that there's more geographic variance in rent prices than in coworking or food. Everyone will have different ameliorating factors in different cities, like friends or in-laws, and I'd argue that splitting out the NomadCost creates more mental work for a visitor than is necessary for the purposes of comparing cities to one another.

tl;dr we all have friends and fam, so chill
