What is the recommended screening frequency ?


That highly depends on the individual and their risk profile. But the best approach in general is to be aware of the signs that are up on these posters you see in every good dermatologist's office. Then you can spot abnormalities immediately and get them checked out professionally. Half of all melanomas are not found by screenings and are self-detected instead.

Perhaps by "An annual checkup is not enough", they do not mean you need screenings multiple times a year. Rather, one needs to regularly examine their own skin in addition to yearly checks by a professional.

An aside for my fellow wookies: moles can form under hair!


To me it sounds like there are several startup opportunities there.

How would a solution to each of those for airbnb look like?


Cool!

btw there's a small bug on the storage part of the pricing plan calculation. It shows 5,525 GB units but then the calculation is for 10,100 units.


Thanks for the heads up! We just pushed a fix.


We use Clojure at Nubank.

We’re actively hiring Clojure devs or we can teach those who don’t know it yet.

We’re very happy with it.


Don Tempelton's Sales Ready Product concept [1] (adopted by Sequoia), especially the ideas around MVP vs. SRP [2] were very useful to me.

Summary

To transform your product into a Sales Ready Product, you need:

- Unified Engineering, Product, Design and Sales teams

- First-hand customer research

- An inventory of customer objections

- Understanding of what matters most to customers (and what you can ignore)

- A qualification list (and the right initial customers)

- A demo that uses data from the prospect and includes a light switch moment

- Standardized and unified sales training and materials

Thank you :)


A not for profit ride sharing platform, in the spirit of ghost.org .

Self driving cars are still years ahead, besides that, humans will still be needed for other kinds of gigs for some time.


See Waze Carpool. AFAIK not (as much) for profit.

That sounds like anti competitive pricing all over again. Bundling Windows with a cloud subscription. Will it call for anti-trust action?


Having it plugged into a security camera would be amazing though. It could alert you when your dog is bored and wants to go out to play for example :) or if it's feeling sick and needs to go to the vet :(
