<p>I'm looking for some ways of thinking about the trade offs in dealing with alerts in shared channels. On an app with very large volume, you end up with many random 500 errors. Sending all of those to shared channels (slack) and people stop paying attention altogether. We end up missing that 1 that was actually actionable and an early sign of a critical bug.<p>As apps progress the specific errors to filter out shift and create a moving target, meaning the alerts have to be consistently updated and you don't really know it's stale until you miss an important signal.<p>Any success stories on keeping alerts actionable and useful as time passes? Is it just about prioritization/resourcing a chore and no way around it?<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Vesting equity makes this pretty harmless. 4 year vest with a 1 year cliff gives you a year of dating even if you start working together before ever meeting, which of course is the most extreme absurd example.</p>

<p>Totally get that workflow working for a lot of people, but not me.<p>I end up with thousands of bookmarks that I never revisit even though I know I saved them for a reason. Even if they're organized by the window, I don't have any context as to what I was thinking when I saved it (was I interested in the entire site, or just a piece?). After a certain point bookmarks and OneTab are just too noisey to have any value.</p>

<p>Outside money is helpful if you want to grow in a specific direction and want to do it fast to make sure you get there before competitors do.<p>It sounds like you have a nice thing going, there's no need to jump into the deep end if you don't have the ambitions to.<p>A lot of VCs talk about raising money as 'the big leagues', and the takeaway from that is: success is judged as performance against expected returns. Perform or get out.<p>If this doesn't sound like what you want, then don't take VC $. If you're ambitious and it sounds like an interesting challenge then maybe it's something to consider!</p>

<p>Hi HN! Maker here. I’ve been a too many tabs guy for as long as I’ve had internet access (even back when that meant too many windows on IE). I've tried a lot of approaches: chrome extensions (OneTab, TooManyTabs, Tree-style tabs); built my own extension (TabLasso); even written down links on paper (I know).<p>I had this realization that most of my tab sprees came from research I was doing into specific topics—stuff that was kind of like a background job I wanted to pause on and pick up later. So I'm building a browser specifically for that.<p>Your tabs are organized by project, treated like a todo list, and can get cut up into just the useful pieces and glued together into a kind of summary of your progress on looking into that topic so far.<p>We’re looking for people who have tried all the tools and want to get in on the ground floor. Excited to hear your feedback on our approach!</p>

<p>Hey, thanks for the question!<p>We've used amazon a lot for ordering seltzer in our offices, and it doesn't have the selection (1/10th of ours). There's also a pain about managing delivery times. Amazon is optimizing for 'real-time' delivery, but what I care about is not having to think about my seltzer and just have it be taken care of. Amazon fresh experience is _not_ this. We're looking to remove as much mental overhead as possible, by simply always having your flavors, having predictable delivery, and making getting what you a delightful experience.</p>
