I'm curious if this site actually uses AI in some form or if it's just the hot TLD at the moment. There's no mention of AI on the page itself.

Another assumption that bothers me here is that the $9M in revenue would be completely lost during an outage. I imagine many customers would simply wait until the outage was resolved before performing their intended transactions, meaning far less than $9M would be lost.

On the other hand, customers can become frustrated at being unable to trade when they need during an outage to and go to a competitor.

The author sort of alludes to it at the end of the article when they mention that Gen-Xers' expectations are even more tempered than Boomers' expectations about what it takes to survive today.

Is there another group/time period you're interested in specifically comparing to?

This seems pretty clickbaity to me. There's very little content and no specific personal experiences discussed. What types of companies did you have better luck with? How many employees does a "startup/medium-size company" have?

This site also has articles entitled "The Must Know 7 Traps That Make Your Software Useless" and "Make Money with programming. Your Advanced Guide", so I'm not sure how high to set the bar.

The entire article can really be summed up as "Email the founders and get a recommendation."

The article mentions all of that content (though without those links). Perhaps they changed it? It's a fastcompany domain now.

Oh, I see that it does, sorry, skimmed the article.

I still think the main news here is just that the legacy Segway PT unit is being discontinued, along with the US manufacturing facilities in New Hampshire, where it doesn't make sense for a Chinese company to be manufacturing.

Seems to me like Mark Wilson of Fast company is trying to make a bigger story out of that, when I'm not sure there is one.

Fast Company has learned that the Segway brand will retire the last Segway as we know it, the Segway PT. Manufacturing at the Bedford, New Hampshire, plant will stop July 15

In addition to some of the other well-thought-out replies, much of the allure of streaming comes from live interaction, donations, chat, etc. Streaming to multiple platforms at once is more feasible for events like esports competitions, but would really make it difficult for a streamer to engage with their audience.

While it's a bit harder to engage with audiences on multiple platforms, it's definitely possible.

Since the communication direct is still mostly one way, you can e.g. aggregate all the chats from multiple platforms into a single one, and treat it like you would right now. Rocketbeans.tv, a German television-like streaming station that I watch a lot has a "superchat"[0] that does just that (which I think they built in-house), and it works really well. From a quick search, it looks like Restream.io also provides such a tool.

Well, that's a highly-opinionated statement :P

The serious answer is that Go is a reasonably well-supported language at GitHub, and C# isn't at the moment.

Opinionated +1 :)

The C# compiler is called Roslyn which might not be obvious for people trying to find it on GitHub - it's incredibly well supported, regularly updated, and lively:

What means well-supported language at GitHub?

I like that too, but it's worth noting that Github (not sure about lab) allows you to disable these features (wiki, issues, etc.) with a checkbox on the repo's settings page.

Very true. I guess it comes down to if you prefer "on by default" or "off by default".

You need 500 “karma” IIRC in order to gain the privilege.

There’s an easy way to find out if that’s true, and it’s to making a similarly successful solo project by yourself!

Productively building and finding the right thing to build to be successful are different things, and one can be good at either while being terrible at the other.
