I use Slack voice a ton as well - quality has been perfect for me and I don't think I've ever had a dropped call.


This is great! I recently went through the interview process and found that doing this saved a lot of time. I didn't have to ask my interviewer to repeat themselves or clarify anything in the middle of writing code.


Same! I was thinking about building this a year back and thought the best monetization model would be to add some overhead for the delivery.


Yes - a common way to exploit a stack overflow is to basically "write code" in the stack and then execute it. If the stack isn't executable, you can't execute the "code you wrote" in the stack.


But he's implying that having a .com correlates to success - so % starting with a .com would be a more apt comparison.


Except for the spate of domain names that are .coms but are not the company's actual name, ala "Bootstrap" and "getbootstrap.com".


rjvir said the .com though. getdropbox.com doesn't count, but they managed to get dropbox.com after they raised enough money for lawsuits.

Any idea how to get it if you're outside the EU?


From their FAQ (http://jakeshake.eu/faq/):

> Do you ship outside of the EU?

> Unfortunately we currently do not ship outside the EU. We are however exploring the possibility of expanding outside of the EU in the future.


Use a mail forwarder that is located in the EU.


Send them an email and ask. It's a physical good, and I don't think they're hard to get across borders. It's food though... I don't know. Worth asking.


I recommend Powder Chow if you're in the US.


Shoot me an email at chintan@capp.io and I can go into more detail :)


We've actually been considering making it available for others to use. Shoot me an email chintan@capp.io.
