   Thank you for your input! I have tweaked the Caveats section to better outline that compression efficiency is usually not a problem.

   Thank you for your feedback! I tried to keep the article as simple as possible, so I have left out some details on purpose. Like WorldMaker pointed out, headers in HTTP/2 are compressed using HPACK which negates the issue you mention.

   I would also say that it is essential. On top of that, a site with ToS and privacy policy is more professional and will instil trust. I have just launched a product myself and it took just a couple of hours to have something decent.

   I really like the idea of not having to constantly pull out my phone or be distracted by the turn-by-turn directions of a robot thinking I am a car :)

   Sorry to hijack this thread! I just have a quick question: I have just posted a Show HN and can't figure out how to write a comment, the comment field is not showing. How did you manage?

   I am currently not managing any server environments anymore, so there is nothing to try it out with, but thank you for the offer! :) I certainly would have paid for it though...

    I've used Zabbix before for monitoring a server environment of moderate size. The flexibility led to certain things not being very simple to configure. So your idea of targeting a niche is certainly a good one, you can make your produc

    Something similar happened to me last year. Instead of just relaxing or taking time off, I used those 6 months to work on my life :) Most of the time I would advise people to keep the wheel rolling: use the momentum to turn your idea into r

    > The corollary is that it is as easy to stay in place by standing as by running on a treadmill. I like this metaphor! However, once we realize that we are the treadmill, we can turn it off and walk away...

    While companies should definitely be doing something about this, at the end of the day it is our responsibility to look after ourselves. Too many people tolerate this type of treatment out of fear. I understand that this is easier said than

    For email forwarding, you can have a look at https://github.com/danisola/forward-cat . However, I do not know if this would work for your setup. On top of that, I do not think it handles replies to the email alias, but

    Have a look at https://thatoneprivacysite.net/vpn-section/ to get a detailed comparison chart of many different providers. Personally, I can recommend IVPN.

    I don't think there is such a thing as the best framework. One of the reasons being that there are so many to choose from and each of them does something better/worse than the other. I am mostly talking about PHP frameworks here,

    I too have benefitted from noise-canceling headphones (Bose QuietComfort 25). On top of that, I use a technique called neural entrainment: an audio track with a specific repetitive beat which helps you attain a state of focus and flow. In f

    One tactic I would use (and have used before) if I can't switch places is to just put on headphones and listen to music. You could even leave the music away and just have the headphones on. This was usually quiet successful in letting

    In my opinion, programmers have a very high impact. While salespeople help sell the product, the programming you put into the product is what creates the actual impact. Something you could do is contact the customers and ask them for number
