I always preferred money stuff. I feel like the hosts have better chemistry and matt levine is one of the most read/respected financial journalists in the last 20 years. I always look forward to it coming out on a Friday.

Screenshots disappear for some reason on mobile. Home page has screenshots but only of the mobile app.

I’m assuming the issues are encapsulated in the idea that you need to specify what events mean a user is engaged and using a product. Is there not a service which you can send user events to (sign in, interaction with a feature) alongside some sort of unique customer ID? Seems fairly straightforward and would result in a fairly good accuracy considering you can track a user over their entire lifespan.

Is there really no plug n play options?

As per PG: “It turns out almost any word or word pair that is not an obviously bad name is a sufficiently good one, and the number of such domains is so large that you can find plenty that are cheap or even untaken. So make a list and try to buy some. That's what Stripe did. (Their search also turned up parse.com, which their friends at Parse took.)”

Upload all of your course notes onto a website, and have it all categorised and sorted automatically with generated flash cards, key takeaways, etc

Maybe a section for exploring a topic more deeply.

You cannot be serious, this has to be a troll. By pretty much every quality of life index most European countries (esp Western European) rank higher than US. Why do Americans group Europe into one chunk like this? And what exactly is the benefit of income per capita when the environment you have to spend it in isn’t as nice as 90% of European cities/towns?
