Hello, Product Hunt friends! 😻 Happy holidays to you all. This week is all about thanks and giving, and that’s exactly what we’d like to do today. We’re grateful to everyone who has participated in our diverse community for software engineers over the past year. Tens of thousands of talented coders have joined a cohort, chatted with peers on our Discord server, or read and shared our...

Are there any Black people involved with the creation, curation, or communication of this project?

@maximilian_fleitmann how are you validating these deck sources? I can already see one deck that's not from the actual company, but rather an exercise from college students. https://www.pitchdeckhunt.com/pitch-decks/square I wrote a blog post about why founders should be skeptical of pitch deck resources like this from that exact example:...

Btw - go waaay back to episode 2 to hear @arlanwashere's interview with @rrhoover! How could you not listen to an episode entitled "An Intense Mullet"? 👌

@nemmy, how do you plan to monetize the service (meaning, how will you keep the service alive over time!)? I used OtherInbox for years before they pivoted to a different product since the exact service you're offering apparently didn't work as a business for them. I can tell you it's tedious migrating away from a setup like this once you've used these custom email addresses with hundreds of...

Heads up, @sathyvelu_kunashegaran - the Square deck you have listed on there is an unofficial, unsolicited one from a few UC Berkeley students. Not a real deck. I wrote a post about discovering this showing verification from one of the student creators: https://medium.com/@bryanlanders/the-case-of-the-fake-square-pitch-deck-8315ab862f29 Check your sources to make sure you're not propagating...

Very impressive! That's a big podcast milestone and a ton of work well done. Congrats, @themalia! Keep up the great work! 🎉🏆

Hello, PH Pod friends! 🎧😸 This is the final episode in Season 1 of my podcast. Yes, seasons are arbitrary in podcasts, but they help give closure to a chunk of work and content. I'm looking for feedback on what could be improved in Season 2, so please do chime in! In this episode, @jasparweir, President and Co-founder of TaskUs, shows us how well-tested core values can scale a thriving startup...

This show hasn't been added to iTunes or released as a podcast yet. For anyone who wants to subscribe in a podcast app, you can use the Soundcloud RSS feed here: http://feeds.soundcloud.com/users/soundcloud:users:246829364/sounds.rss Kinda janky since the name displays as "ycombinator" and you have to manually add the URL to subscribe. Hope they do it right soon because it's obviously amazing...

Dig it! Great quality, great length, and clearly the series will have great guests. For other fans - do you think you'll be watching the videos and/or listening via podcast app?

Ok, my PH Pod friends. This is a super special episode. It's a collaboration with @arlanwashere. Discover her extraordinary story of going from a career in the music industry to venture capital. Her mission: Backstage Capital is exclusively focused on backing the best underrepresented founders (People of Color, Women, LGBT) in the country. We also pull in 5 portfolio founders to share their...

Hello, PH Podcast friends! This episode of Mission & Values is so special to me because it's exactly the kind of show I wanted to make when I started. This startup... - Asks potential recruits what their own personal values are to make sure they align well. - They're a certified B Corp because their social mission was that important to them. - They have an atypically diverse team that gives the...

Meet the 11 CEOs of the mission-driven startups in Techstars Healthcare Accelerator’s first batch. Listen in on mini-interviews recorded at the Demo Day event in Los Angeles just after the founders pitched to a theater full of investors. Happy to answer any questions you have about this here on PH! I wrote this up as a big ol' Medium post:...
