from the ask-hn dept.
We're running a B2C firm, most similar to Netflix and Spotify, and see a good number of churned users, who cancelled our service months ago. Overall, churn is pretty low -- however, I wondered if there are some best practices or excellent write-ups on the topic.
They want people who do side projects, but stop them when you work for the firm.
Just send it to them, anyway :)
So you got accepted. Then tell everybody in YC that they're shitty. Then you get kicked and wonder why.
This sounds exactly like Cloudflare could add this as a 1-click feature to save 50% bandwidth.
Startups are the most efficient organisations in the economy. Because you have to get shit done and can't fuck around. A lot of people love to fuck around and do "fake work". Only output and impact matter. Hard work is "hard", and at startups you can't hide "not working". It sounds pedantic but that's quite the reality, a lot of people just don't know what "work" feels like, and don't want to do it.
I'm actually very excited about it. Could start a new era of how we develop and work with data.
Congrats on the launch, love the demo!
#5: introduce a subscription fee for 'premium' tier or hosting. That works best by far in my opinion.
For cameras, the resolution is only one of a ton of relevant factors for quality. What's most important is the sensor quality.
and: please kick sourceforge.net, that download page is incredibly ugly and destroys the "quality aura" you built up on your own website.
Design is still massively under-appreciated. Airbnb, Airtable and Coinbase and Stripe massively succeeded, because of Design. And Zorin OS 16 is on the right track, but still: hire an excellent Designer to review the entire system again. Check margins, Branding, consistency of the entire system, and more.
Design makes all the difference and creates real business (and user experience) value.
Trying to give feedback (heavy user of evernote, notion)
Hate:
- huge lack of basic hotkeys: CMD+N for new notes
- no styling / formatting at all in the free version, which is a huge bummer.
- CMD+, doesn't show the "preferences window" I expected
- Markdown styling
Love
- extremely fast (evernote and notion became exremely slow to the point I'm close to dropping both)

Talk to and show it to customers. You'll quickly see if they like it or not.

from the en.wikipedia.org dept.
1. Is this substantially faster than JS? (canvas / .svg). Please test this exhaustively. Render time and script evaluation for JS charts is still a huge JS problem.
2. Can this be made interactive, e.g. on mouse-over show exact numbers? Without interactivity, it is still kinda lame
Hire engineers to fix the root cause instead of hiring "employees to do job X". Engineers can automate almost anyone away by fixing the root cause. Lemonade is doing a great job at this.
I'm very confident open-source projects (also like VueJS, Nuxt, and many NPM packages) are some of the highest-impact donations and philantrophy anyone could make.
There is no legal address, phone, email and no imprint on your page, that looks highly fishy. Would fix that. Privacy policy is missing as well :0
MacBook Pro wish 2021: rounded-edges end-to-end screen, that's the future, like the iPhone and iPad have.
Touch bar is great, but should be an ADD-ON above the function keys, not replacing them.
Your company is user hostile you users are thinking about creating a union - because nobody else is caring about their interest. Caring about users should be any firms #1 priority, lol.
