I think these startups, you make trade-offs every single day. Literally, I did trade-off today. I was rolling

out entire peeling platform, and it changed like 90% of how we do peeling. And I'm like, in the

and discover, collecting your favorite things into stacks.

Today's episode is brought to you by dot-tech domains, and this one hits close to home.
