@aarondfrancis What if it was available for Windows & Linux first...?

[Simon Lindsay @singularo]

@aarondfrancis Directories works better for me than git worktrees.

@MostlyTechPod My 2c - Some people will pay to not have annoying ads.
Why not offer a simple no-advert version for a tiny monthly fee and see how it goes?
Keep selling the sponsorships as well in new and funky ways that @aarondfrancis or @ianlandsman dream up :-)

[Simon Lindsay @singularo]

@opdavies Not exactly, but the one causing the failures was very cut-down, something like this (I deleted it).

[Simon Lindsay @singularo]

Just spent too much time chasing a 500 error that ended up being because of something in services.yml that had never been an issue before. Copy the default one in and fixed.. Sigh - #programmer life. #drupal

Awesome work @AussieAngelsHQ team :-)

[alan jones @bigyahu]

I just want to shoutout to the @AussieAngelsHQ team. I’ve just caught up with all my holding statements and it’s probably the first time I haven’t had any notes for improvement. It took other funds I'm part of 10 years to get to holding statements and reports that were this clear and usable. Thank you team.

@aarondfrancis @steve_tenuto @xata Seeing this reminded me the sqlite early bird ends soon, and now I've gone and bought that.

You got me with the FOMO!

Loyalty discount for the postgres one, which I really need more? :-)

Great job, keep up the excellent work.

@nmdmatt There was probably a constant slight worry as well, get that sucker out and move on. Gotta keep our 'machine' in good working order!

[Simon Lindsay @singularo]

@ultimike @palantir That looks awesome, filled out the form, keen to be involved.

[Jake Warner @ Cycle.io @JakeWarner]

🚀 Today we've launched Functions on https://t.co/dh8lA3l02T! This feature allows users to bring a Docker container to the platform and dynamically scale as events/tasks require. Think of this as like AWS Lambda, but on your own infra -- even if that's across multiple clouds.

[Simon Lindsay @singularo]

@nixcraft I've been happily using @insynchq, it works pretty well. Satisfied user, no affiliation.

[Cycle.io @CyclePlatform]

With Broadcom's acquisition of VMware come doubts about the future of Tanzu and other VMware products and services, and a huge spike in those looking for alternatives - including @CyclePlatform

Is it actually terrible though @AndrewWarner ? It pretty specifically targets the niche of people who will be interested in their content. To paraphase @ShaanVP ... There are Riches in the Niches Baby, Riches in the Niches.

[Andrew Warner @AndrewWarner]

My First Million is a great podcast with a terrible name.

Use it as a model of how NOT to name your podcast.

A good podcast name…

…SHOULD: be broad and give you flexibility to change its topic

…SHOULD NOT: lock you in

Podcasts evolve based on their hosts’ interests, audience reactions, world events, etc.

Good examples…

…The Joe Rogan Experience - notice how it helped him evolve over the years?

…All-In - they started talking business, added Covid news, layered politics, and soon they’ll launch a tequila

…Huberman Lab…The Ben Shapiro Show…SmartLess…Pivot - all allow for topic evolution

Bad examples…

…My First Million - They started with interviews of founders’ early days. But we care more about the hosts than their guests. They grew so much, but the name limits them. When I recommend MFM to people, they think it’s about getting rich quickly.

…Acquired - They started talking about acquisition stories, like Twitch, Waze, etc. Over time, they realized they were incredible at telling any deeply researched business story, but the title stayed the same.

Terrible example…

…Mixergy - My podcast name sucks. Yes, it’s broad, but it’s hard to remember. Most people think I’m saying “Mixergy Energy.” I did well despite the title because I was early in both the podcasting and startup scenes.

If you don’t have a good title, go with…

…A variation of your name: The Joe Rogan Experience, Lex Fridman Podcast, The Gordon Ramsey Show, etc.

…Something super-flexible: Pivot, Club Random (with Bill Maher), Modern Wisdom, Now What (with Trevor Noah), Fresh Air, etc.

Do you have other examples of good/bad podcast names?

[Simon Lindsay @singularo]

Great find @ultimike, awesome work @selwynpolit !

[ultimike @ultimike]

The open-source #drupal book that @selwynpolit has been writing and maintaining is clearly a labor of love. It provides lots and lots of code samples and explanations - most Drupal developers can probably learn something new from it!
