@louispereira Fully agree! Must-read if your'e starting a marketplace: The Cold Start Problem. It's essential to identify the smallest functional network (e.g. 1 airbnb host, X guests) and scale these nodes.

Marketplace ideas are the easiest to come up with, but the hardest to execute.

@LeahThar interesting! makes me think about how campaigns, metrics, conversions are connected. Low campaign quality acquires the wrong traffic, leading to 'high drop rate'. Acquiring the right traffic means less total traffic but more targeted; buying at a higher price, better conversion

I drew this a year ago. I have no idea what it means

Don't have a website but think you should have one? DM me! Something's cooking...🍲

So there's a great Thai restaurant in my neighborhood called Kiin. Yesterday, I searched for their website to order some takeout. Here's the Google result.

Hey @damengchen! not sure if you know/care but this article testimonial.to/integrations/s… has a dead link to testimonialto.myshopify.com

@Yannick_Veys why should the 95% matter (ignoring marketing value of CR7) if the $200M are a signal to the handful of decision makers?

Christiano Ronaldo made the deal of the century. A Saudi soccer club will pay him $200 million per year. The masterplan behind it: The Saudis want to bid for the 2030 Worldcup. The problem: 95% of people will only remember Ronaldo. Not the country he's being sponsored by.

@DmytroKrasun Do you have a self?

I am not mine projects, ideas, and even thoughts.

@allenholub As a non-native speaker this feels like such an elegant solution (compared to other languages especially).

Maybe this will get me in trouble, but I think it's better to use "they" instead of either "he" _or_ "she" in writing. I'd rather use an entirely neutral word than replace one gender with another. (For the pedants, "they" has been a neutral singular pronoun since Chaucer's time.)

@levelsio @wichmaennchen @arvidkahl Subjective take, but influencer means to me someone who tailors your content towards a specific audience. In comparison your audience grew around your authentic voice. Maybe it's a chicken-egg thing but I would've never thought of labeling you as an influencer.

@wichmaennchen @arvidkahl It seems quite targeted at me with the whole "digital nomad influencer" thing, so a bit weird to read and well sad for him/her

Oh wow, the top post on Hacker News is about a disillusioned indie founder giving up due to mental health issues. “I am done. I give up” It’s a hard read, but an important one. Protect your mental health. What this founder experiences is very common. news.ycombinator.com/item?id=341038…

@marckohlbrugge Couldn't agree more. Had to go windows for the last two weeks because of a repair and it's the first time now that I'd openly admit I like Apple 🙊 Also started using tailwind for my last projects and it's been a real joy so far!

They say tech stacks don’t matter, but I’ve had 3 times in my life that made a very meaningful change: Windows XP 👉 Mac OS X PHP 4 👉 Ruby on Rails BEM CSS 👉 Tailwind CSS

@marckohlbrugge @levelsio @Austen Next wave of successful AI-ish startups will use such "open tech" to capture a bigger chunk of the value chain, the chunk that was too complex before so it had to be its own business.

@levelsio @Austen Yes, well put. AI is just another piece of tech in your (and soon everybody’s) toolkit.

Discussion with my friend: my friend: What's the point of learning this AI stuff or even building AI stuff if there's no moat anyway? It's all open tech and even if you learn and make something it'll just get outcompeted/copied by someone else later?

@dinkydani21 @ProductHunt Congrats! what a success!💥

🥈#2 product of the day!🎉 I am VERY happy! What a completely wild 24 hours with a MUCH bigger response than we expected 🥰. I got a bit excited with the multi-colored arrows 😂 Remember you can still get 40% off with the PH coupon until the end of 2022 🥳producthunt.com/posts/ellie-6

Exodus vs. profits Who believes that @gumroad pricing will serve them in the long run? #indiehackers

@johnbuilds @PierreDeWulf Yeah I think @gumroad has/had a pretty good image as the hassle free and easy option. Not so much anymore I guess.

Interesting to see that no matter how well-loved a product or a company is. It's always just one pushy price update away from backlash.

@mistermeenr Confirmation > trust If you read the docs you're gambling on them being up to date and correct.

Why read developer documentation when you can spend hours just guessing what the code does?

@scrumtuous Make it work. Make it fast. Make it pretty.

Do you always write clean code?

@sulamitaivanov No but I feel like my past experience can help in learning some things faster. But learning completely different paradigms gets definitely harder.

Developers, do you think you’ll ever get to the point where you’ve learned everything you need?

@marckohlbrugge Hotwire is so refreshing when you need a little interactivity. Rails 7 feels so powerful again!

The real-time page updating seems over-engineered, but it's just a few lines of code with Rails 7 + Hotwire 👌

Making progress on the paid premium features. 1. Select from the dropdown 2. Redirect to Stripe Checkout 3. After payment redirect back 4. Stripe Webhook updates frequency 5. Page updates in real-time w/ web sockets

@marckohlbrugge This is ace!

Twitter will soon start releasing unused handles 👀 So I made a service that continuously monitors your desired handle and notifies you the moment it becomes available for registration. handle.horse 🐴 It's freeeeee! (*insert horse sound*)

@damengchen Got one to calm you down: andreschweighofer.com/tech/the-art-o…

Can't stop buying domains! HELP!
