Websites by day, robots and vacation rentals by night. Trying to be a decent Dad and Husband during it all.

The amount of anger I feel at “The place was great, perfect location and great value. The hosts were so kind” [4 stars]

Framing this on my wall. Its my mantra now.

Yessssssss finally! I really hope “Phoenix” means the greater metro area and includes suburbs like Mesa.

2,000,000+ commercial deliveries.
New cities unlocked.

See where we’re taking off next

@Mculee @Mishbia15 @GraysonJAllen I need this.

[Grayson Allen @ImGraysonAllen]

@geoffreylitt (A)I did this.

[Grayson Allen @ImGraysonAllen]

@BowTiedBroke Are there plans for this? Super cool! Would like to do something like this in Northern AZ.

In a lot of ways, company legal teams pushback to prove their worth and see what they can get.

I say, teach them how to work with you. If they don’t want to sign your NDA, send them to a competitor who might. Internal people might move a mountain to work with you if you say no.

@mhp_guy Is this user error? We use ours nearly weekly with little issue.

@ryanzip If it’s safe enough to deliver Ginger, it’s safe enough for my burrito. I’m in.

Pro tip: If you’re traveling to an Airbnb for the holidays where you intend to cook, bring one of those fast knife sharpeners.

They’re never sharp.

Except ours, it’s on our quarterly maintenance list.

Describing @Waymo as a driverless @Uber is not accurate.

It’s so much better.

@KennethCassel Go away green? Disney.

@jliemandt Plot twist, they’re all gifted. The education system just sucks.

[Grayson Allen @ImGraysonAllen]

@emm0sh Diabolical if there’s an undercut on day 3

[Grayson Allen @ImGraysonAllen]

@spencertbarber We started doing handmade gifts only between siblings, that helped take the gift pressure off. We invite neighbors over to read Luke 2 on Christmas Eve and discuss how Christ has affected your life this year. It’s very nice.

Update: we have successfully reverse engineered it. Now time to simplify as it costs over the retail price in just hardware.

[Grayson Allen @ImGraysonAllen]

Wife wants a dough sheeter.
Looks up price: Nah I got this
Currently reverse engineering a dough sheeter with @McMasterCarr parts and expecting a sheet metal order for @sendcutsend. Will report back.

[Grayson Allen @ImGraysonAllen]

@cbames How do others get involved?

[Grayson Allen @ImGraysonAllen]

If it’s fixed fee with clear scope, they finish the work with no more $. That’s not on you. They charge more for that risk.

If they’re claiming scope changes, that’s a different issue.

If it’s T&M, you terminate the contract, get the files and hire someone else. Sunk cost fallacy will screw you here. Everyone involved is grumpy now and trust is gone.

As someone who has pitched you and lost the deal (which is totally fine), that’s what I would expect.

Sorry you’re having to deal with that.

[Grayson Allen @ImGraysonAllen]

@TrungTPhan At a price that somehow is immune to inflation forevermore.
