Consider a "TinyMiniMicro" type slim PC instead of a RPi4. You'll get a lot more bang for your buck. https://www.servethehome.com/introducing-project-tinyminimic...

I think another big reason for lower compensation is because a lot of companies working at a low level tend to be companies making physical electronic products. Profits for physical profits don't scale as exponentially as they do with

NAT and firewall traversal are two other things that Tailscale gives you that you don't easily get with Wireguard alone, FWIW.

The vehement shilling against anything blockchain related is something I still don't really get. Sure, I get it, you don't like blockchain. But this website would've taken a bit of effort to put together, and for what? To shi

I recently joined a series B startup valued at ~$200M with ~100 staff and was granted what amounts to be ~0.015% over 4 years. (So if I had all my options now they'd be worth ~$28k). Seems like that might be a bit low comparatively, ha

Luck Surface Area ( https://www.codusoperandi.com/posts/increasing-your-luck-sur... ) definitely applies to this, though - it's all about positioning yourself so that you have the opportunity to get lucky.

It's a beautiful country but because of the small population there's a lack of opportunities, especially compared to the US or even Australia. The time zone makes remote work difficult too.

This sounds cool, do you have any recommended resources to get started with running a lnd node and getting it connected to a larger network? And, just curious, do you make any money from lighting fees?
