• My Thoughts on Python in Excel

  IMO the better paradigm is coming from enterprise applications like Anaplan. Cells are not the right abstraction to work with numbers. Most of the time you work with multi-dimensional quantities (eg revenue by product, geography, month). We’re working on a more approachable implementation of that paradigm at https://causal.app. - Source: Hacker News / 18 days ago

• Show HN: Type-safe feature flags with Git versioning, local fallbacks, GraphQL

  We're using Hypertune at https://causal.app for a few months now and it's been great! We have a few feature flags in there but also some more complex typed data for our onboarding modals. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Show HN: Hypertune – Visual, functional, statically-typed configuration language

  Congrats on the launch! We've been using Hypertune at Causal (https://causal.app) for the last few months and it's saved tonnes of engineering cycles letting me and our PM iterate directly on custom onboarding copy for different Causal templates, alongside more typical feature flag use-cases :). - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Enterprise AE - Career Path (Advice needed)

  If you're particularly keen go onto some of the prep courses there are out there. wall street prep is one, there are other PE prep courses hawked on here for as little as 10 bucks. All are built around excel skills and learning DCFs. I recommend causal.app if you want to try to skip some of this and get forced into a tool. Source: about 1 year ago

• Minimum Viable Finance: The Guide for Seed/Series A Startups

  Hi HN, I'm the founder of https://causal.app and the author of this post — Most of the finance content online is very textbook-y and overkill for early stage cos, so wanted this to be a 'no-nonsense' guide for founders/ops people that have to juggle a bit of finance stuff alongside everything else. We've helped lots of startups across different stages with finance stuff over the last few years through Causal, so... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Automating standups using GPT4 and Github APIs

  We think GitReport could replace standup apps like Geekbot. So we're making it into a product. More Git features are coming, like tracking issues and pull requests. Source: 9 months ago

• Agile / Scrum

  We run standups every day, however only 2x of them are a Teams call. The other 3 are run using a tool called Geekbot (Yes scrum masters do hate this) which is basically just a chatbot that sends you the standard standup questions and you can answer whenever you feel like it. This has helped our team heaps due to having such a huge mix of people in our team (Cloud Eng, Database Eng, Software Eng, Network Eng) that... Source: about 1 year ago

• What do you really think of your daily standup?

  My new job recently pulled in https://geekbot.com/ to handle stand ups. Answer a couple basic questions when you login, and they’re all sent to a central channel. I’m not big on that type of communication in general, but it takes maybe 30 seconds each morning. Source: over 1 year ago

• As an IC, is there anything I can do about super cheerful team members using up meetings time?

  We use Geekbot to help standups. The feedback from each dev goes into a channel, then we talk about things that need to be addressed or things we're working on. Source: over 1 year ago

• Scrum Has Failed the Developers

  Back in 2005, I remember working on startups running on Scrum principles. It worked well at the time, we where able to ship, grow the team, and move forward with a nice few-features-per-week cadence, working remotely, on a small team; less than 10. Tt always worked fine, but very slow, as all-dev-things were at the time. I worked with ActiveColab in 2007, Skype 2007, Yammer 2009, Trello 2011, Pivotal Tracker 2013,... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
