   Obviously it depends a lot on which CMS you're using and I can imagine there being a lot of complexity involved. That said, setting up something like Contentful and integrating it with NextJS is roughly a day or two of work if you&#x27

   Can you elaborate on the Ad part? What kinds of ads should one be thinking of? What do you think about content marketing (technical blogs etc.)?

   I know antitrust covers more than just the classic case of monopolies driving up consumer prices. But looking at it just from the anti-consumer lens, the case against Amazon really is kind of funny, when they're at the same time blamed

   Slightly off-topic, but any personal experiences on how to get involved in the ecom space? Or if you can point me to any online forums, that would also be appreciated. I'm aware of ecom-reddit. I'd love to hear stories on running

   Here's a random collection of thoughts that I have about the progress of Artificial Intelligence (AI): Machine learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) in particular benefit from fast computer chips. The most impressive gains in AI in the

   I'm no expert but surely fast chips still matter in stuff like AI? Although, one could argue that modern AI hasn't had a huge impact yet. Anyway, my point is that having faster and more energy efficient chips would make the traini

    How much is Palantir in the consulting business vs. a SaaS? Whenever I read something about it I get IBM vibes, of a company which is partly doing some software platform stuff with a mix of good ol consulting. How off base is that impressio

    The book Range, by David Epstein has a pretty interesting chapter on music and the history of improvisation. I knew that Django, the Python web dev framework, had been named after some obscure dutch musician. But after reading the book I ha

    This is kind of Off-topic, but I've been getting back to doing web development for the past few months. One thing I've been surprised is how much high quality content marketing/blogs there are especially regarding React. The

    The walking bit resonates a lot. Feels therapeutic to go for a walk and let my mind wander after a day of work.

    Yup. I'm honestly impressed that Apple's services revenue is now 50% of iPhone revenue [1]. [1]: https://www.cnbc.com/2020/07/30/apple-aapl-earnings-q3-2020....

    I guess the sentiment that TikTok should be sold is gaining ground. It's pretty clear from a regulatory perspective that Facebook won't be allowed to buy it and probably Google neither. The app also seems to be kind of a wonky fit

    Out of interest, how much capital would one roughly need to buy a 1K MRR? I'd assume the valuation would be some multiple of the revenue with some combination of growth rate?

    I've heard great things about Taiwan and Ben Thompson of Stratechery often talks about living in Taipei. What I'm wondering is how worried are the people of Taiwan about China encumbering on their sovereignty in the near to mid fu

    I'm no expert in the matter, but AFAIK, concurrency is becoming relevant in Python web dev. One can already use stuff like FastAPI [1] and Django is supposed to be getting async/await support later this year [2]. So that should ma
