I disagree. If you can get a few people who are regularly and eagerly talking to you about your idea because they really want it, then it’s much safer to take the dive.


Ive been running ads to get targeted traffic to my landing pages. Anyone have thoughts on that?


Two years into marriage I was driving down the freeway and had an epiphany that my wife loved me even though she didnt show it. We went from verge of divorce to strongest marriage I know 10 years and 3 kids later.


Was that an epiphany or wishful thinking that coincidently bore fruit?


People show love in different ways. (There's a book called "The 5 Love Languages"; even if you don't buy the details of the book, the idea is likely correct.)

If your spouse shows love in a different way than the way you expect to receive love, that can be confusing. Figuring this out is a big part of making relationships work.


Whats awesome about nix? I struggle to grasp why is better than docker


I was vacuuming listening to YC startup school. I thought, what is my worst pain in life? Paying medical bills popped into my head. It's just such an annoying adult chore to sit down at the computer, type in a long url, punch in an account # and pin, and pay. I just want to text a picture. So I made it.


"Hey, text me your private medical data and bank info, and I'll handle it for you!"

Sounds legit.

I mean, you probably are legit, but you are asking people to blindly trust a random web site with some of the most private data we have. There needs to be far more effort put into building trust before I'd consider this anything but a potential security nightmare.


A more concrete perspective on the abstract term "loose coupling"


Simple interpreter that uses Elixir Decimal lib to solve simple math equations.


Much like a testing pyramid, a fast feedback pyramid will surface the frequent problems fastest and the rarest (hardest to catch) problems later.


By optimizing compile times, tests and CI, you can extend the productivity of a monolith and avoid the "microservice premium" for much longer.
