Looks great, is it out on Kindle? I'd buy it there for easy reading.

This looks great, we've been a long time ERPNext customer, but we really only use the accounting and invoicing systems. This might be a better fit for us.

Looks interesting, I am looking for something like this, but without more details I am not sure I can order. What social networks? Is there a video demo, rather than just a screenshot of the results?

Are Nokia phones still sold in the US? We have plenty in Asia that are nothing but a phone and texting.

Specs from the SmallWorld Facebook page:

“Our current test version is 4GB RAM, 1.1Ghz CPU mobile version, 128GB SSD.

The final specs we want for $369: - 8GB RAM - 256GB SSD (minimum 128GB) - Core i3 (final confirm in a couple week, but that is the goal)

Hope we can hit that target. Will update more later.”

How can we get our newsletter listed? I run one with about 2,000 people for tech in development.

Wow, this is great! As someone who is coming back to web dev after a few years off, this will be awesome for my use!

We just got word that they were moving email to Office 365. But for internal stuff, I think it's still going to be Notes. God, I'd take Oracle at this point.

IBM (Lotus) Notes - Amazingly awful software.

Nomad Projects (http://nomadprojects.io) would be good to add as well.

Thanks for posting the static site plugin. I was looking for something like this. I've been using Wordpress forever and wanted something for personal use, but didn't want to host a public version of Wordpress.

I really enjoyed Twitter's TNF streaming. I usually watched on my laptop or phone and enjoyed seeing the tweets integrated into the experience.

I really have a hard time with Amazon's prime video player and offering, the UI needs more work. Hopefully this will work internationally like Twitter's version did.

Hey, thanks for the feedback.

Right now most of the site analysis, content recommendations, competitor review is automated, but the writing of articles is not. My co-founder is a former copywriter and we have a strong belief that we're a ways away from writing automation. Even with all the focus on machine learning and AI, it's going to be awhile before we can automate that part of the process.

For pricing, it's actually $160 a month for one article a week, so roughly $40 an article.

Thanks!

No problem, we have a one article option for $60!

Thanks for the kind words!

We get our writers from all over, almost exactly as you say. My business partner and I are expats in Asia and have made a good network of US and U.K. writers looking for work as they travel.

That and freelancers who've applied through the site. :)

We are still testing out pricing, but for now this seems to strike a good balance for the types of customers we get, mostly small product builders with one or two people.

We automate a lot of stuff to help lower costs for our writers and we have writers on staff from our agency that fill in the gaps and do editing.

Awesome, we'll make sure to reach back out!

Problem: Writing regular content for your product's blog is time consuming.

Project: We are working on automating the content writing process. Articly (https://articly.me) is a automated content strategy and writing platform. You give us your site or product and every week our platform sends you a new article to post to your blog.

Well and the actual cost isn't $1000-$2000. From the website: "The Detroit Land Bank will issue a Quit Claim Deed at closing, which transfers its interest in the property. The purchaser will be responsible for any delinquent taxes, water bills, or liens on the property."

That could be quite a large amount depending on the back-taxes and liens that could have been placed on the property.

I finally pulled the trigger on getting a drone. I picked up the Phantom 3 for $350 and have loved flying it around.

Usually 2-4 on a project, depending.

I'm a Program Manager, currently manage 16-20 projects at any given time. My developers work 3-5 depending on the nature. I'm usually fighting management to keep them on the lower end of that.

Awesome! Great work!

Great work on this site! Very helpful resource. I looked at the timeline, how did you launch to 1000 email subscribers and get 300k page views in the first month?

Wow, I had no idea people would interpret this as sexual harassment. I say this to both men and women on my teams that look like they are having a rough day. I'll remove that from things I say.

Edit: I don't just say "Smile", usually there is more context to the conversation and usually ends with me trying to see if I can help fix the problem(if it's work related).

I've always looked at it as a startup has a major focus in technology, while a small business could be any business that is, well, small.

"Dude, You're Gonna Be A Dad" was pretty good. It's a little bro-ish, but if you can get past that, it's a good quick read. - https://amzn.com/B004XWDD8W

"The Happiest Baby on the Block" was a good practical guide - https://amzn.com/B00TCI48AE

Wow, that's an amazing level of dedication to mapping this all out. Looking at the about page, it looks like an good exercise in machine learning.

The developer talks about the process of generating the test data here: http://www.danvk.org/wp/2013-04-20/generating-training-data/

Great article on this: http://alistapart.com/article/getting-clients

I posted that before they responded. Good to hear they don't respond to RFPs.

The point of RFPs are to allow fair competition between vendors. Also to allow the government agencies to compare bids apples to apples and score accordingly. You're example is fine as long as you are providing the other bidders with the same information. It breaks down if you have inside information that other bidders don't have.

For example, most RFPs don't include budget info, but often a large portion of the scoring is based around the budget. If 18F had worked to create the criteria, knowing information that wasn't public to bidders, then won said bid, that's where the conflict comes in.

But this is all for not, as 18F has clarified that they don't do this, which is great. I'm all for better requirements, transparency, and lower government spending.

I bid on a lot of RFPs and the process needs fixing for sure. Anything tobreduce the amount of work I need to do to draft a bid is welcomed. Goverment bids take an insane amount of man hours on our part.

Love the work 18F is doing in this space.
