A distilled summary of Sam Altman's "How to Succeed with a Startup".

Sam Altman - How to Succeed with a Startup

Watch the full Y Combinator talk on YouTube from Aug 29, 2018 here: https://youtu.be/0lJKucu6HJc

Summary

  1. Build a product so good, people spontaneously tell their friends about it.
  2. Build a product that is easy to explain in a few words.
  3. Identify a market that is going to grow every year.
  4. A real trend is one where the early adopters use it obsessively.

A Node + TypeScript + ts-node + ESM experience that works.

The experience of using Node.JS with TypeScript, ts-node, and ESM is horrible.

There are countless guides of how to integrate them, but none of them seem to work.

Here's what worked for me.

Just add the following files and run npm run dev. You'll be good to go!

You'll want to login using an official Google account (i.e. if this is for your company, use the comapany Gmail account vs. a personal one.)

When logging in, you might be prompted to verify the account; if so, enter your cell number to get a verification e-mail or phone call.

Once verified, you'll have to agree to the terms of service; do that, and click continue.

The Iris Dataset

This is the "Iris" dataset. Originally published at UCI Machine Learning Repository: Iris Data Set, this small dataset from 1936 is often used for testing out machine learning algorithms and visualizations (for example, Scatter Plot). Each row of the table represents an iris flower, including its species and dimensions of its botanical parts, sepal and petal, in centimeters.

The HTML page provides the basic code required to load the data and display it on the page (as JSON) using D3.js.

For a more up to date code example with React & D3, see (VizHub: Stylized Scatter Plot)[https://vizhub.com/curran/3d631093c2334030a6b27fa979bb4a0d?edit=files&file=index.js].

Custom Web Fonts and the Rails Asset Pipeline

Web fonts are pretty much all the rage. Using a CDN for font libraries, like TypeKit or Google Fonts, will be a great solution for many projects. For others, this is not an option. Especially when you are creating a custom icon library for your project.

Rails and the asset pipeline are great tools, but Rails has yet to get caught up in the custom web font craze.

As with all things Rails, there is more then one way to skin this cat. There is the recommended way, and then there are the other ways.

The recommended way

Here I will show how to update your Rails project so that you can use the asset pipeline appropriately and resource your files using the common Rails convention.
