Love the "text me a link" feature!

The app itself looks nice and clean as well, with some great animations (the pull-to-refresh one, for example).

> Its latest composite bat, the Avenge L140B, has special construction that allows the hitting side to flex like a spring.

I'm not familiar with baseball (Belgian here) and was wondering how these things are regulated? Does each player have its own bat? So one team can already be at a technological disadvantage when the game starts?

Just guessing: it follows your phone?

For WordPress plugins and themes I enjoy https://easydigitaldownloads.com It's not perfect, but has some nice plugins (licensing!).

As I understand it there are 6 peers with the following situation:

  - Between 1 to 20 ports between Level3 and that peer
  - 1 of those ports is congested
  - They are handling the upgrade together, which is business as usual.

Then there are 6 other peers with the following situation:

  - Between 1 to 20 ports between Level3 and that peer
  - Almost all of those ports are congested
  - The peer refuses to augment capacity

"Congestion that is permanent, has been in place for well over a year and where our peer refuses to augment capacity. They are deliberately harming the service they deliver to their paying customers. They are not allowing us to fulfil the requests their customers make for content."

I'm wondering if the A/B testing score was skewed due to it being the first non-working link in the menu. Someone going through the menu to see what's possible will probably take a look at the top item first.

A random order for the menu items might have been better. Or maybe not.

Props to Microsoft for opening up the devkit to everyone. It's not their fault that some people just love screwing other people over.

There is one in the top right corner (underneath the language part) for me. Although it does seem to disappear whenever you start scrolling.

The "Scroll down" hint wasn't obvious enough for me. I'd also show both screens as soon as you land on the page, as that is the unique feature of this phone and it took me quite some time before I actually found it.

(If you don't scroll but just click on the links you just see 1 screen at a time. If you aren't really paying attention you don't notice that there are 2 different ones)

That does sound like a scammy experience.

Personally I wouldn't mind about leaving my CC details if I was told the entire truth afterwards and then had the opportunity to opt-in again. Any reason why you didn't take the "second opt-in" approach, Adii?

It's hard to experiment if everyone knows what's going on.

If you didn't like the experiment you had the possibility to opt-out and never become a customer of him again, without having to pay a single dime.

As I understand it customers were informed about the change in plans before they had to hand over their money, so it's definitely not as bad as you put it.

The roadmap was actually changed because of those customers, so presumably the end result should align better with what they really were looking for.

I would've done an opt-in though.

Communicating about it would defeat the entire purpose of the idea.

The way he did it allowed him to validate the idea in the exact same situation he would end up after building it, so it's a great way to take the (huge!) risk out of building a product.

Personally I wouldn't mind as a customer as you did know all the facts before you were actually spending the money.

"taking people's money under the banner ..."

He didn't actually charge people before the product was finished and they were able to opt-out after they knew what happened. Would have been a whole different story if the cards had actually been charged.

Attending!

Comments at the right edge of the screen are unreadable as the balloon is partly outside the window. Would be nice if they would pop up to the left, in that case.

Beautiful design nonetheless!
