@nateberkopec I have them open but they are terribly formatted so it’s generally just pages of noise scrolling past

@searls has this ever happened? I’ve always lamented that the marketing people win (Signup button) over the UX people (Login button) even when the number logging in each month vastly outweigh those signing up. And there’s always more Signup buttons around the page… just let us have the one prominent login button

@searls @tenderlove epic trolling

@nateberkopec like Elixir’s repository pattern?

@searls reducing if statements is largely how I describe my job as CTO because it’s the clearest way to communicate the complexity, risk, and maintenance burden of seemingly-trivial feature requests

@tenderlove perhaps you’re just spread too thin?

@noelrap @tenderlove when the next version of Ruby drops and someone asks, “Are you going to update the Pickaxe book?” 😅

@nateberkopec “Your app performed 7% slower in the past 7 days”
…
“Your app performed 10% faster in the past 7 days 👍”

Are just the nonsense emails I get from Scout which I know are 100% attributable to the changing inputs because we haven’t materially changed the machine. Drives me insane

@tenderlove perhaps a “thanks” or “like” button to be clicked if the message is useful at some point in the future

@searls at least it didn’t say “Something has gone wrong”

@searls yeah, not sure I’ve seen an API key integration. We’ve done it through Connect for as long as I can remember and I believe this is the strongly preferred approach by Stripe. In fact, I think they would prefer if we used Express accounts which we retain total control over

@searls yeah, #2 sounds like a non-starter. We use Stripe Connect and when you cancel your account we stop the subscriptions to the Podia content. You can reinstate these via the API (we've done this) but it's firmly in the “theoretically possible but not easy” category.

I'm no product expert but our support team has a lot of experience supporting slightly off-the-beaten-track use cases.

@searls 👋 https://www.podia.com — we use your Stripe account so all your customer’s payment information is stored there.

I can't say it would be trivial to migrate away and keep payments, or import them elsewhere, but it would be theoretically possible with the Stripe API. Easier than most platforms which act as a middleman though
