@destroytoday YESSSSSSS

Here's the Pull Request template I used in the livestream:

https://github.com/TransistorFM/handbook/blob/master/pr-template.md

@CasJam @r00k @JordanGal @derrickreimer @robwalling @SingleFounder If you want to hear a *really* honest personal update, listen to this one:
https://overcast.fm/+MP5-OsBD8/39:39

(Especially starting around 39:39)

@stauffermatt 🔥 Awww yeaaah! Nice work!

@tranhelen Truth! In almost every situation!

@derrickreimer AWWW YEAAAAAH!!! 🔥

Another challenge with Spotify stats:

Apple Podcasts gives us "Average consumption" percentages. Meaning, if your show is 40 mins, and most folks listen to 32 mins, "consumption" is 79%.

On Spotify, however, a listen is "anything over 60 seconds."

For example, if you search "Couples Therapy" on Spotify you get a list like this.

With this UX, is it possible people are looking for the artist/song but clicking the podcast accidentally?

Gotta get back to doing these!

Now that's how you pitch for a book!

☝️ @jonbuda and I respond to the new funding options available for bootstrappers: @earnestcapital, @tinyseedfund, @indievc.

Also, apparently the fellas in AC/DC personally remove me from their list, because it takes them 24 hours to do it. 😜

☝️ That quote is the cornerstone of my blog post today:

💸 Let's talk (honestly) about business costs!

@bkorte I'm trying to be more aware of times when folks dispensing advice just don't have all the information.

(Sometimes this is self-inflicted; like when I'm holding back details to protect my ego)

@zOxta Email is scheduled for 4am Pacific, but I noticed that some of you are already up. 😎

Folks with Rails apps on Heroku:

What are you using for auto-scaling?

(ie. scale up automatically when your app's workload increases)

Great article about community design and raising kids:

https://usa.streetsblog.org/2018/11/02/single-family-housing-upholds-the-patriarchy-and-hurts-moms/

As someone who's been a part of a few communities like this, I can attest to their value!

The world’s on fire. 🔥

@n0ther_guy @patio11 It was recorded at @microconf but the videos are only available for https://www.foundercafe.com/ members I believe.

Live: using @tailwindcss to fix a mobile rendering bug on my @Statamic site. https://www.pscp.tv/w/bqsqsDM4NTU1MXwxenFLVk9tbU9rUEdC109yIHiXcNI38K9VI8tm-luTORtiH6_2wc7Kq4CuqUs=

Here's the episode. I know this one will be controversial.

Eager to get your feedback!

Also on @IndieHackers here!

https://www.indiehackers.com/forum/i-have-a-new-website-designed-to-look-like-an-old-punk-rock-zine-201b52cdf9

@delk Agreed. Feels similar to the mattress opportunity: easy to ship, self-assemble, currently high retail markup.

@the_fln @MathDy24 Not yet.

I just switched my main site (http://justinjackson.ca) to @statamic.

Right now @megamaker (and http://store.megamaker.co) run on WP + Woo. I might switch those in the future to Statamic. 🤔

3. Twitter – it doesn't work for every audience, but my group (tech folks) hangs out here.

Twitter is a great way to exercise your writing habit.

Also: share what you're working on! Screenshots, updates.

Many folks say they joined my newsletter because they "liked my tweets."

@SingleFounder @robwalling This must be a heavy talk; look at the size of that wine glass in frame! 🍷😮

Hey @screenflow: I'm having this problem too!

https://twitter.com/leif_ottosson/status/1054048799403003905

@stauffermatt Good luck on that flight!

Make sure you get up to do some aisle lunges every few hours. 😄

@Shpigford I can't believe how helpful folks are in the comments. Surprisingly patient! 😅

@5minpause even joined me live on Skype and helped walk through a bunch of stuff.

LOOK WHAT WE MADE!

@ajlkn @airtable Dope!

@MorganJLopes @mikaelcho @Adobe I'm still using CS5. 😜

@ZAlanbuky @michaeldyrynda @KateKendall Awesome! I want to hear this one. 👍

Looks like the Periscope/Twitter stream was a bit glitchy but you can watch the recording on YouTube here:

@nathanallotey @jasonfried @basecamp This is amazing. Love the Doc Brown quote!

@AbduL_Haseeb_ @JamesClear It really delivers. I'm only on chapter two and my brain is already 🤯

@frontendben @m1guelpf @statamic Done! 👌

@patio11 @limedaring @pjrvs @curtismchale This is what I was looking for! Ok. I'm diving in. (Wish me luck)

@asantibanez @guayaquildevs Your biggest asset: your mailing address. Sponsors love the idea of being included in your next email. 👍

👉 Starting with installing + using @statamic

@jasondoesstuff @ckelso Congrats 🙌!

@freekmurze Whoa you're quick.

DAMN. 🔥

This new video from @theleviallen is just insane. 😮

https://youtu.be/tKncm49CP9I

☝️ @jackconte, @spencerfry, @drewwilson – I'd love your thoughts on this.

(it'd be cool to get @patio11's thoughts from the Stripe Atlas side too)

@tomcreighton When Basecamp launched in 2004, it was unique and notable. It came at the right time.

Taylor Otwell's Laravel is currently the most desirable PHP framework - for 2018 its perfectly timed.

The Zune was well-made, but the iPod was more desired in its time.

Yes! This 👉

Awesome photos from #laracon Chicago! 📸

Thanks @ninjaparade! 🙌

@ninjaparade @LaraconUS @jeffrey_way OK this made me spit out my beer at the bar

@sethlouey Yup, it's this:

http://forecast.baremetrics.com

@sara_bine @LaraconUS @laravelphp @JoseCanHelp @AnthonyTerrell Love this one 😂

This #laravel lineup is crazy

🎤 I've also seen a bunch of smaller bands play this past year.

🤔 What makes me go see an indie band?

💬 It's almost always because a friend invites me.

👨‍🎤 Last weekend, I went to see @John_Fogerty live.

📰 I heard about it in the newspaper.
🖥️ I heard about it on Facebook Events and John's FB page.
✉️ I got an email from John's newsletter.
📱 I got a notification from @Bandsintown.

(That's a lot of touchpoints)

🎸 Thoughts on marketing bands.

🤔 First question: how do people hear about concerts? What makes them go?

This is true.

It's why we're making it our mission at @TransistorFM to "help shows get more listeners."

@kylefox Lost in Space (with my kids)

For those of you incorporating in Estonia: what are the downsides?

1. Can you still use Stripe?
2. What banking are you using?

⚠️ July is your last chance to get @marketingdevs for awhile!

Registration closes July 30th.

Jon and I have had a change of plans.

Listen to our latest @TransistorFM episode here:

https://share.transistor.fm/s/b664390b

@brennandunn HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

Review:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Very 'Corn Pops' (which I dig). Finishes with a light 'rice crispy' on the backend. Tastes great with bananas. Would definitely eat 3 bowls of this after a night of heavy drinking."

@kentcdodds I thought Americans fell asleep to the sound of fireworks every night! 😉

☝️ doing some writing today for tomorrow's newsletter:

https://justinjackson.ca/newsletter

We need to get this for the @TransistorFM office.

@RichardGorbutt @DanielPink YES. OLD PEOPLE RULE.

Finally got a video on #IGTV:

"Maybe you shouldn't be a solopreneur."

https://instagram.com/tv/BkTU25JFYEl/

@ianlandsman Wait, you code?

Whoa. YouTube embeds are broken?

"I've fallen and I can't get up!"

In the '80s and '90s, memes were spread exclusively on schoolyards.

Reddit basically disrupted schoolyard banter.

My buddy @MarcEglon is giving away 5 years of @podiadotcom!

@Shpigford @andrewculver YESSSSS. This. 😩

“Shame is a focus on self, while guilt is a focus on behavior. There’s a huge difference between ‘I screwed up’ (guilt) and ‘I am a screwup’ (shame).” – @BreneBrown

@ianlandsman attached u will find my amazon wish list.

i hav good taste and am good cultural fit.

pleez hire

(or, buy me something on amazon)

I'm just kidding. I ❤️ podcasting.

@ProductHunt Glad to see more focus on MacOS.

Also glad to see these features on iOS meant to curb iPhone addiction (in adults + kids).

Do I know anyone at @Pocket?

This bookmark is still caching an old version of my blog post:
https://getpocket.com/edit.php?url=https://justinjackson.ca/dont-sell-to-startups/

I can't see a way to re-crawl Pocket's cached version.

Help!

📰 I'm late getting my Saturday morning email newsletter out.

It's a good one, but should I wait until next week to send it? Have you already had your coffee?

http://justinjackson.ca/newsletter

@JackHarner It’s all about the relationship.

@brennandunn earned the right. 👌
