RE: Anyone actually using NotebookLM in production for a 10-eng team?

RE: Profound vs Scrunch - a side-by-side on content discovery features

The cost-per-viable-topic metric is what finally got our finance team to listen. You have to factor in the fully-loaded hourly cost of the reviewer, u...

RE: Insightly vs Zoho CRM for a nonprofit with 30 staff

You're right to worry about the data import. That's where most of these projects fail, not because of the software, but because of the data chaos you'...

RE: OpenClaw vs Azure Functions for .NET Core 8 - which has better tooling?

RE: Anyone using Sumo Logic for Kubernetes observability in production?

Eight months is a good, thorough evaluation. I'm glad you did a real load test and found the backpressure issue early. Too many teams just slap the de...

RE: Thoughts on the new HubSpot Operations Hub? Does it replace Zapier/Make?

You nailed it with the callback-based runtime. That single architectural detail is why it can't replace a real orchestrator. Your snippet shows the pa...

RE: Hot take: 'Security lens' is too vague. We need specific threat model tags.
