Good article but it doesn't fit in with American thinking. In search of a unicorn. The only very visible company in the United States I can remember following the profitability and measured growth path was 37signals. Even they have occasionally wandered way off course, with multiple products, and neglecting the main product (long discussion). I agree with you. This philosophy of profitable growth makes me interested in Linear as a potential customer. There's less risk of you closing your doors or just selling your smaller users out.

Where did you share the code? You didn't include a link.

Great job with Pushpin. It was the only extension which worked semi-reliably on iOS. Sad that it wasn't viable.

Based on the average diet in North America (fast food, oversized portions, GMO vegetables which look good but are nutrition free, hormone overloaded beef, chlorinated chicken, this is the short list), I would argue the system (North American style capitalism does not nourish the body.

I'd also apply the same thought to North American arts and sports. Singing about hoes and bling, while clutching your testicles or ring fighting hardly feed the soul.

The Olympians should get proper state funding. They do inspire.

Lots of money for bombs for Gaza, bombs for Ukraine, bombs all over the world. Very little motivation it seems to settle foreign policy issues diplomatically. Which would save trillions of dollars (for us) and millions of lives (for them). Lots of money for war.

Talk about hard decisions and belt-tightening is ludicrous until North America changes it's all-war, all-the-time politics.

Breakdancing should never had made it into the Olympics. Breakdancing is art or it's not. It's certainly not sport.

Cf. Rhythmic gymnastics free routine is borderline but there's a whole bunch more set pieces the young women do with balls and hoops which are sport. Figure skating is also borderline but does have figures and set moves and a high physical danger factor (you try leaping high, at speed on the ice, or being lifted). Freestyle skiing doesn't belong in the Olympics.

One doesn't start with the marketing. One starts with the great game. This is the one of the biggest issue now in culture – one is taught to promote one's awful films, music novels, games, paintings. Instead the creators should teach themselves how to make great, or at least good, art first.

Then the division of labour was to find the editor or the producer to take your work to the next level.

Between them Reddit and Macrumors have almost all the useful public information for macOS users, music producers, video creators, colourists. Handing Google the keys to Reddit will be trouble. I'm not quite sure what kind of trouble, but deep trouble.

The SEO spamslaught which will start now will be part of the issue, Google will also work to make visible on Reddit what they like and make invisible what they don't like. Money talks and Reddit was already big on censorship. A more independent public space is what we need, not a more moderated and beholden prison yard.
