• Words, thoughts, and theories - MIT Press, 1997. [All Versions]. Alison Gopnik's book that articulates and defends the "theory theory" of cognitive and semantic development, the idea that infants and young children, like scientists, learn about the world by forming and revising theories-a view of the origins of knowledge and meaning that has broad implications for cognitive science.

Pricing

• Don't just roll the dice – Software pricing guide - Huge and complete collection of pricing scheme, with their psychological effect and impact on revenue model.

• Business Model Patterns - A list of 15 different ways to sell products and services.

Pricing / Usage-based Pricing

• Use-cases for cloud services - The reason usage-based pricing makes even more sense for cloud services: to optimize ROI, keep all regular workload in traditional architecture and reserve cloud computing for elastic and experimental projects.

• Electropedia: Tariffs for electricity - Before the cloud, there was another metered resource priced by its usage: electricity. Here is a detailed (and multi-lingual) taxonomy of its vocabulary from the International Electrotechnical Commission.

Pricing / Subscription Plans

• Lotus (⭐1.8k) - Open-source project to manage pricing & packaging infrastructure.

Pricing / Hybrid

• The Three Part Tariff - Beyond linear pricing, there is a place for additional platform fees and free-tiers in the pricing structure.

Pricing / Market Research

• Pricing niche products - “The most compelling argument against simply picking a price, though, is that it limits how much you can learn about your market.” Then the author setup vickrey auctions to discover price.

Invoice / European VAT

• On GCP invoiced billing - Invoiced billing is a B2B-friendly payment happening after the service is consumed and an invoice issued. It seems to be a pain to setup on GCP but I suspect is a consequence of trying to reduce (costly) fraud.

Invoice / Structure

• Content of EU invoices - The information required on a EU invoice is detailed by Article 226, Section 4 (Content of invoices) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC on the common system of VAT.

Invoice / Integrity

Business Intelligence / Customer Lifetime Value

• You're all calculating churn rates wrong - “On the surface, churn rate may seem like a natural proxy for changes in customer lifetimes. Let's dig into why that is not true.” Churn rate is not a meaningful metric to compute CLV: during the customer lifetime, the churn probability is not constant. Most of the time because of your free trial and vouchers. This article illustrate the influence of the distribution used to model the probability of a customer quitting.

• How to project customer retention - A seminal paper, with a stronger approach compared to the one above: the exponential distributions is replaced by a geometric model, which is better suited to discrete time intervals like monthly contracts, the former being more appropriate to continuous time process.

• Survival Analysis For Customer Retention - Illustrates how retention can be better modelled using a survival function like Kaplan–Meier survival curves.

Competitive Analysis / Cloud providers

• DigitalOcean Billing changelog - All the latest billing updates on DO.

9. Urban and Regional Planning Resources

Platforms and Software Resources / Environmental and Climate Planning Tools and Platforms

• Climate Mapping For Resilience and Adaptation - Climate Mapping for Resilience and Adaptation (CMRA) integrates information from across the federal government to help people consider their local exposure to climate-related hazards.
