Thank you!

Interesting thoughts and links. Thank you.

Wow, I need some time to process your reply. So much food for thoughts. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for taking time to share your thoughts on the topic.

Totally. Now I realize that Instagram is here to stay at least for a while. Posts & stories is a perfect combination in their case. As a result we don't see as much spam in the feed like on Twitter. Want to post more? Just do stories.

Your thoughts on Discourse are also interesting. Added it to my notes. Will give it a try when there is a moment.

Based on the fact that more people are going remote, this is a bit concerning for me. It would be awesome to have a place online where you can make friends based on different hobbies / profession.

> I do miss searchable public forums specializing in topics.

Yeah, me too. Subreddits cover some of the use cases for me, but threads are more different to search compared to the forums.

Just run the following command in your terminal: "cal 9 1752"

this is very reasonable in terms of flippa and other tools. in terms of 3 different languages - each is good in its own way. i would agree that rails could be totally replaced with node. but overall picking the right tool for each specific problem allows to move faster. you probably know how many languages are used at the backend of github, google, twitter etc.

"Moving faster" is a dubious benefit.

Context switching is very costly. So is having to configure, support, and debug 3 different environments.

I understand using Node for realtime/async services, but using both Python and Ruby makes no sense.

It depends on your knowledge of these tools. But you seem to be a wise guy. So I would say you are totally right, since I don't want to waste my time arguing.

on the one hand you are totally right. on the other hand there are many companies trying to implement their BI solutions from scratch, this foundation could be a good fit for them. anyway, thanks for your feedback, I highly appreciate it.

The reason behind selling the project is that our team decided to split up and angel investors need their money back. Nobody does marketing now and I began to work on other initiatives.

You don't have an investor, you have a creditor (might I say: a loanshark). Investing means there's risk of not getting your money back, loaning means you get your money back no matter what.

learning the hard way :)

You liquidate the company, and the investors get what they get. They're not going to get their money back. I'd be blown away if you got a few thousand for it.
