Most people aren't going to want to sign-up without knowing more. The intro sentence doesn't do enough. You need to demonstrate the purpose of the product and the value proposition to the customer (i.e. your users).

No one is going to contribute their e-mail and their time for free. No one does anything for free, really.

I have no idea what I'm getting into by signing up. Make it more clear and I'd be tempted!

Can you substitute the fictitious "elsewhere" with an actual suggestion, per the thread?

Wow, that one is pretty nice... Do you have any experience plugging this into, say, a react app? Fairly simple?

As bockris said, you can stand up minikube locally. Or if you download Docker for Desktop, they now have the option of a built-in local K8's.

Kubernetes shouldn't necessarily be a 'target'. You can write any app, and if you make it deployable via a Docker container via a Docker image (a Dockerfile; plenty of info on that on the web), then it should be deployable to K8's.

Since everyone is recommending note apps, I'll throw a plug in for Bear, if you have a MBP and an iPhone. Syncs via iCloud, and it's just simple, Markdown oriented notes with a simple tagging system. Good enough search. Haven't really needed anything else and it actually exports pretty nicely to various formats (Word, pdf, html, etc.).

Your opinion is totally valid, and I agree.

I should've been a bit more clear... On the list of things that are important, having a "good idea" is near the bottom ... unless you're lumping in market validation, timing, total addressable market, etc. into "good idea". In this case, I wasn't. Those are all on the list of things that need to be considered though, and to me, fall directly in line with "execution", rather than "idea".

Again, this is just the way I see it, and it's mostly a semantic argument. But to me, "Idea" is like the hypothesis, and problem statement. "Execution" is proving that out by building a really good product and iterating on it, along with analyzing TAM and PMF. If you're better at the "execution" component, you're going to find more success. Especially if you're good at doing that portion quickly and reliably and can cycle through several "ideas". Therefore, ideas are a dime a dozen (in my opinion).

Ideas are a dime a dozen. Execution is what matters.

Is your idea building "Tinder for job search"?

I don't say that to discourage you. Quite the opposite. If you're passionate about it, do it. As others have said, at the end of the day, it's quite a simple formula: build X, get people to use X.

Even more simply, "solve problem Y for lots of people".

Can you share a bit about how you implemented?

Very useful, and thank you for sharing!

Are you working on other ideas at the moment, or focusing on this one?

Were you actively ideating, or was it more of a "I have this problem. Wow, this software is expensive and too complex, I just need a simple solution" and then you built it?

Appreciate your response to this. I guess it's tough to go back and try to pick things up and move forward from a particular point. I feel like getting a much more solid grasp on Probability and Linear Algebra would be the most beneficial to my profession (data science), but again, not sure that I have the motivation.

I have a Bachelor's and Master's in stats, more or less, but my confidence is still extremely low.

Couldn't find your e-mail in your profile and wanted to get in touch. Very interested in going down this path, or potentially working together.

There are frequency ordered decks I believe. Very useful. Top 2000 most frequently used, for example, is a good start.

Also, many people here are kind of missing the point. The OP posted that for the express purpose of receiving corrections and feedback. People are criticizing the corrector for performing the task that was requested of them — likely on a website dedicated to this practice of written correction...

I think in this case, the point of the website the OP posted their passage to is to receive highly critical feedback to ensure 100% accuracy and learn from mistakes. I doubt the person correcting them was doing so with the spirit you describe here. Also, word choice is a bit subjective and perhaps the disagreement with the other poster you're replying to is regional or something else.

I did a quick Google to see if anyone was trying to solve this independently, and this looks pretty neat: https://thereviewindex.com/ ... Anyone have experience with it?

Any idea where to start? I've always found it extremely challenging, in regards to both motivation and direction.

Had a similar idea the other day. To search Twitter for "is there an app", "I want an app", etc., and display those on a page. Let people do a simple upvote, and use that to start training a model on what constitutes a "good" idea (there is a lot of chaff when searching those phrases).

Referring to the above poster's "non-locality", are we talking about denormalization of formatting? Is there a way to "normalize" PDF structure? Calculate margins or common formats beforehand to normalize?

I'm not really following your criticisms on The Phoenix Project... Can you elaborate?

The design is slick. Do you have any tips, or is it pure handbuilt?

An additional feature suggestion: if you really wanted to add value, require version and software that the question relates to, and track those against release repositories. That way, when you're looking at some sort of bug resolution that applies to version 2.x of 'some package' from 2014, and you're 5 years in the future on 4.x, you can use that as a heuristic that "maybe this doesn't apply to me".

Great point, and it's also not counting total comp, which I imagine is much higher on average in California.

This is pretty rad. I considered making something similar for lens comparisons. I always use the "customer photos" sections on Amazon or B&H. It'd be a good way to make some affiliate cash, if you had a similar setup as this, but included affiliate link. Maybe your next lateral move. :)

I've been looking for something like this. I really dig the aesthetic. Great job!

Y'all hold on to that designer you've got. Those landing pages have a great feel to them.

Thanks for that! I was originally referring to the layout of the article itself, but I'd be interested in both, if possible!

I really love the look and feel of this. Can anyone give a few pointers as to how to achieve something similar? I know it's rather simplistic, but it's really elegant.

Interesting to leave out "Revenue more than doubled to $728 million in the same period, as did membership."

Might be nice to have an "apply all" and "download all"
