sridvijay··on Ask HN: Which books teach mental models?
Competing Against Luck (Christensen) - models on how to think about innovation, and the "jobs to be done" theory (what job is the customer hiring my product/service for)

Such a small shift in perspective, but it makes such a dramatic difference! Really recommend reading if you haven't already.

sridvijay··on Keybase launches encrypted Git
Was just thinking that as well, the hard part about changing GitHub hosts like bitbucket/github is the feature parity between them. This is really enticing though.

Around 7 hours most of the time, from 1:30-8:30am

sridvijay··on 120,000 Apps in BlackBerry World, 47,000 by one developer
Try adding color to the app? Don't only use the default assets given by Apple? I'm guessing that'll add just enough for them to approve it, but still compared to other things on the store that looks like it should be approved, but hey it's Apple's famous app store approval team.
