Stop Paying the Intercom Tax: When to Build Instead of Buy
The biggest hidden cost in a growing business is the compounding penalty of per-seat software licensing. If your team uses Intercom, you already know how this works. Every new hire increases your operating expenses. You are essentially penalized for scaling your team. We call this the SaaS Tax. There is a specific inflection point where renting software becomes drastically more expensive than building and owning it.

Soccer: Checking in with UW teams at the start of conference
Sports Men's Soccer A look at the men and women's soccer seasons so far Football is back in Madison, but maybe not the one you’re thinking of. Wisconsin’s men and women’s soccer teams are back on the pitch and both have a lot to prove this season. The women’s team started their year off with a dominant showing in pre-season play. The action began away from home against Texas Christian University. The Badgers held the frogs to a 0-0 draw.

Trustpilot promises to be "free and open" - in reality, they are the exact opposite, holding companies at ransom, and outright violating their own terms, as well as the law. Like most companies, we didn't choose to use Trustpilot, but in 2019, a user left this 5-star review for Shoprocket on Trustpilot.com, and whether we liked it or not, we were now listed, and anybody could leave a public review that we have no control over.
Madison's soccer club loses tough game to MLS team · The Badger Herald
Sports Forward Madison FC Forward still finding its footing with new manager Despite a strong showing early in the U.S. Open Cup, Forward Madison FC was unable to pull off the upset over visiting Minnesota United FC last Wednesday. The flamingos hosted the Major League Soccer club for the third round of the Open Cup —U.S. Soccer’s main club-level tournament.
Forward Madison FC: Season in review
The USL League One season came to a close this week, with Union Omaha lifting the trophy in a rematch of the 2020 final against the Greenville Triumph. Unfortunately for Forward Madison FC fans, it has been another postseason of watching from the sidelines. The Flamingos finished the season ninth in league play, claiming only eight wins in the 28 game season. The team also found itself near the bottom of the league for goals.
Struggling to get over the hump · The Badger Herald
It has been a rocky Big Ten opening for the Badger women’s soccer team as they enter October with back-to-back home losses. Despite a dominating start to the season, the Badgers begin the second month of conference play with a 2-2-1 Big Ten record. Things started strong in August, with the Badgers showing a dominating presence at the pitch. Opening the season in Kansas City, the team came home with a four-to-nothing win against the Kangaroos.
Badgers on the pitch: Update on UW men’s soccer
The Badger men’s soccer team has been making the most of the early part of their season, delivering two massive two-to-nothing wins in the same week. It’s clear Head Coach John Trask’s Badgers are looking to make up for a disappointing 2-7-1 showing in 2020. The action started Tuesday with the Badgers sending the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Panthers home without a point scored.
WI must end preemptive laws regarding plastics to preserve environment
As stores have begun to reopen over the past few months, I’m sure the pile of plastic shopping bags you’ve collected is growing larger and larger once again. But with Madison no longer collecting these plastic bags, what should Madisonians do with them? Although they often seem trivial collecting dust in our homes — or when they just rip on your walk from the store to your car — these plastic bags can wreak havoc on recycling systems.
Ending statewide mask mandate is counterproductive as pandemic's end wavers out of sight · The Badger Herald
Despite our wishes, the coronavirus is still raging across the country. Michigan is experiencing yet another surge of cases — this time among young and otherwise healthy patients. This makes the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s decision to end Wisconsin’s state-wide mask mandate at best, ill-timed, and at worst, deadly. March 31 saw the court release their 4-3 decision on the case, with the four conservative judges in the majority and the three liberal judges offering the dissent.
Wisconsin legislature must stop battling Evers over COVID-19 relief
With the Biden administration pushing through a new coronavirus relief package, Wisconsin is set to receive another from Washington. As per usual among our state leaders, there has already been intense debate between the Republican-controlled legislature and the Democratic governor’s office over who should divvy up the money. The relief fund comes with $2 billion already set aside for local governments and non-governmental programs, which will be sent to communities based on federal formulas.
Open COVID-19 vaccine eligibility unproductive, focus must be on currently eligible groups
May 1 is the nation’s new deadline to make all adults eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine. Following a year of social distancing and isolation, most Americans are ready to put the pandemic behind them and go back to ‘normal’ — whatever that may be in a post-COVID America. But with already long waits to receive a vaccine under the current guidelines, how much will change come May 1? At the moment, vaccines are available to around two million people in Wisconsin.
Drones establish internet access in rural Wisconsin, they are only a short-term solution
COVID-19 has changed how our society works and how students continue their education. Now with over a year since the beginning of the lockdowns, many students are used to logging into their Zoom lectures and discussion sections. Unfortunately, in parts of rural Wisconsin, there is no access to reliable internet. The issue of reliable internet coverage is not unique to Wisconsin.
Social media key in fostering grassroots organizing among youth voters
It’s doubtful many would argue the 2020 presidential election was normal. In more ways than electoral scholars would expect, 2020 brought out some of the most peculiar campaigns and elections our country has seen. From the resurgence of white supremacy groups as major political players to a yearlong movement in support of Black lives and against long-lasting police violence, the 2020 election cycle changed how national politics will work moving forward.
Gov. Evers' plan to reverse Act 10 could protect Wisconsin unions and workers · The Badger Herald
I was nine years old when I first marched around the State Capitol building in Feb. of 2011. As the son of a prominent state union leader, heading downtown for the anti-Act 10/recall-Walker protests became part of my daily routine. I would finish school, get in the car and drive downtown to walk around the bustling capital square. To be perfectly honest, nine-year-old me barely understood what was going on. I knew we would walk, hold signs, sing songs and chant — to this day, “what’s disgusting?
Robin Vos' request to lower flag for conservative radio show host degrades American flag · The Badger Herald
It is no surprise politicians make appeals to their potential voters through any means available to them. From public statements to policy proposals, our elected officials use their positions as tools to gain political support. But where does political pandering cross a line? When it starts to fundamentally change our country. The flag of the United States is a sacred symbol of democracy in our country and around the world.
Gov. Tony Evers invests $43 million in rural development, to aid contemporary economic depression
After years of empty promises and forced empathy, Wisconsin family farmers may finally get the resources and support they desperately need. The new budget proposed by Gov. Tony Evers dedicates $43 million to rural development in the state. This action marks a light at the end of a dark tunnel for many farmers who have faced growing hardships over the past two years.
Political Stalemate: Wisconsin Republicans must compromise with state Dems on COVID-19 legislation
Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers launched a new mask mandate only one hour after the Republican-controlled Legislature voted to end the prior mandate. Less than a week later, a prominent GOP donor is already pushing for the Supreme Court to end this new mandate. This back-and-forth stalemate between the legislature, the GOP and the governor is not new, but its continuation makes Wisconsin residents the casualties of the political battle.
While UW messaging stands firm on COVID-19 prevention, continuation of UW athletics tells different
This Friday marks one year since the coronavirus first appeared in the state of Wisconsin. With a year that has now felt like decades, the University of Wisconsin has continuously made COVID-19 prevention a top priority in the press. Now with new virus strains documented around the world, UW has been focusing press releases on how the school plans to continue to meet the virus head-on.
Biden must address how "fake news" claims and media distrust continue to fuel Trump supporters · The Badger Herald
If you have ever wanted to see the totally unfiltered opinions of the American people, look no further than the comments on your local news station’s Facebook page. It is here, behind a thin veil of internet anonymity — or at least as much anonymity as a Facebook profile provides — that we tarnish one of our nations founding principles. The truth. It is not news that Americans have an unfavorable outlook on the media. Public confidence in the press has trended downward since the late 1970s.
