Patrick has to be one of the nicest people in our community. Whenever I shot him an email, even with the worst questions, he always took the time to respond. And please keep in mind that he used to consult big companies at that time and charge good money for it, but he always helped the community like this.
Thank you Patrick and all the best with Starfighter.
Something to note, for those who want to flood nice people with emails: I sent him a couple emails (probably similarly stupid questions -- I recall one was about his thoughts on Twilio having a "build your own appointment reminder" page -- not a direct competitor for your customers, but that does seem a little rude, no?), and never got a response. Nice people get busy, and it's best to consider if clever googling / just trying it will be a better use of the shared public resource called 'Patrick's Good Will'. In my case, I could have just e.g. assumed his thoughts mirrored mine, because even if they didn't, not really important to me.
Thank you Patrick and all the best with Starfighter.
