(OP) In my post, I actually ask the question of whether a student would _want_ to interact with the tutor, not if the tutor is capable of providing good instruction. These are drastically different critiques.
I’ve been in the habit of emailing myself a lot, I’m excited to give this a try! I had thought of building this myself, so I’m glad I don’t have to :-)
Our customers are split between the US and Europe. There are a lot of decision makers in the process who need to approve a purchase at school, so things are pretty time consuming.
If you go to https://app.pickcode.io/lessons you can do some free Pickcode VL lessons without an account. Later this year we’ll probably add some Python or Javascript to that page too. URI storage would be neat!
Basically just a lot simpler. Replit has a million features (and AI ghostwriter) that in my experience are distracting for kids (I used to be a teacher and still tutor kids 1:1)
This post (just thinking of use of Unix tools within game software) reminds me of that bug a few years back within steam itself that accidentally deleted user’s root directories
Palantir is a classic example of what is a hybrid services => product business. It was a _very_ long road for them to get to a point where their product could actually scale without massive implementation effort, but I think they’re finally getting there (they offer a cheap self service option now AFAIK)
How does this compare to magnet? Magnet has worked well for me for years, although recently I was trying to clean up my menu bar and realized there was no way to remove the menu bar icon. I’ll ask for some advice on that here actually since there are some Mac experts, is there some terminal incantation to remove a menu bar item?
OK, I tried it out. First thing I did was type a website into the big bar at the top and got an upsell modal for an AI thing... I get the need to make money but this was not a good first experience for me
That was a lot of bullet points, but doing more communication asynchronously is good. I have a small company so it’s obviously easy mode, but we got rid of slack and it’s been great.
Basecamp isn’t necessary though, Github discussions is a very decent answer for forums and discussions. It feels like things that go on in discussions are much more permanent and searchable, and can be tied to tickets, etc
