I work for a company similar to GrubHub outside the US. 'The Cloud' works great for us. Think, how many people order food at 9AM on a Monday? Therefore, we only have a very small amount of servers running. However, 7PM on a Friday

For me it comes down to ease of use. If Spotify didn't exist, I doubt I'd be buying albums etc. anyway. It's the same as torrenting movies, people do it because it's convenient (and free) but now Netflix is here, it&#x27

We use quite a lot of custom built tools and Splunk to funnel the logs from everywhere, so we can use their AI/ML to detect anomalies etc.

We run AWS, GCP and Azure. Devs in my team can pretty much chose their favourite cloud to deploy things to. Everyone always picks AWS, it's just the easiest to navigate and feels like everything links together well. I think the only th

Is there some documentation on how to contribute?

Would use it if it showed more Crypto to GBP graphs.

Thanks for the response. I thought the Chrome issue may have be something like you mentioned. The fact that you're here and replying is another reason why I want to like 1Password. I'd be shocked if a LastPass employee responded t

I purchased the standalone Mac 1Password app, but moved back to LastPass. I hate LastPass, and want to use 1P but LP just seems to work better. Despite being bloated and ugly. Admittedly, I haven't tried 1P for around a year now. So

That sorted it, cheers! How long is the Chrome database kept for? I use Chrome Canary and the standard Chrome, but only had a few hundred results in each, a lot less than I was expecting. I can't remember the last time I cleared my his

> you install on your own server Yes anyone can easily spin up their own server, but MailChimp does that part for you. Right? So the cost analysis should really include the cost of an EC2 instance too, to compare them fairly.

Sorry but I don't agree with the statistic of the Status feature. > the company announced that 250 million people—a quarter of all members—were using it daily Just had a quick look, and I have around 150 contacts on WhatsApp (mainly

As a 21 year old, the way I see it right now is Snapchat is used for more private photos (not that kind, but more for friends to see) and Instagram is used for photos that people wouldn't mind being seen by anyone. A lot of people post

Ethereum fell too. It's on it's way back up though, slowly. Hope it continues... definitely bought it at the wrong time.

I'm doing a degree part-time, online, and that's the only time I've ever used UML. I work at a kind of graduated tech start up, so we're doing most things the modern way. I've never even heard anyone mention UML.

You were $5.94 in debt, so they decided to take $275? Bit extreme... How could you carry a balance there anyway? Was considering using Vultr at one point.

They really are great guys, it's not the first time they've tweeted me either! The CEO is active on HN too. Great customer service.

I had a similar issue with the .IM domain three months ago. One of the four NS for the domain was not responding. Two of the guys at Cloudflare diagnosed it for me: https://twitter.com/xxdesmus/status/8558584412895

That's a shame. Will have to pass on it for now. Good to see a lot of growth in the FinTech industry though, with banks like Monzo popping up and all these smart investment sites like Nutmeg.

This looks really cool, but I'm nervous about trying it. Can they provide any guarantees?

So I'm assuming the fork, Ethereum isn't at risk? At least as far as we're aware.

Not sure if it's a Chrome update or macOS update as I did both at the same time, but since I updated to High Sierra I've started getting a lot of certificate errors in Chrome v59. I tried updating to the 60 Beta, but it is still o

I personally use Streisand [1] hosted on a t2.micro using the AWS Free Tier. Some people also recommend Algo [2]. Both have all their code open sourced on GitHub. I do have a Pi too, but after all these new laws where ISP's can sell yo

What was wrong with Streisand? That's why I have been using and recommending for a while, I've not had any speed issues. Currently running it on a t2.micro in AWS.
