Thanks, were you ready to take a paycut for better criteria? If yes, how did it work out and how do you deal with the FOMO?

They are making lot of enterpise bucks though. And they did start as Open Source. Killing it midway to serve their convenience is the issue. There's also tonne of Open Source that isn't as popular but serving niche communities. It

It's still limited to just one party, that's heavily regulated for compliance. Not perfect, but a step better than exposing to apps that can have bigger surface area of exposure.

Technology for all the above existed in rudimentary form, faster Internet, faster machines and adoption was missing. But Current bets are assuming AGI. No one knows how soon. To predict that would be foolish.

This is the 'problem' I need solved as well. Sync across multiple Financial institutions is a nightmare. If the CSV import can be automated with some Plaid/simplefin bridge that's reliable, I think it would be a nobraine

Kindle scribe if you can get it for cheap. I think it goes for $240 sometimes and it's a steal for 10 inch of eink. Not the best for writing, PDF may have few rough edges but pretty decent overall.

Looks promising and exactly what I want solved. Adding wireguard and Caddy is slick. How are you planning to go about Zero Downtime deploy? Maybe emulate Swarm?

Very cool. I've looked into doing something similar for self hosting and have wanted something in between docker and Kubernetes. Nomad seemed like a good fit, but still a tad more work that dead simple docker and lack of ecosystem. I f

Drop in the context of Databases isn't even close to anything being released or launched. Drop = Delete. Release is a much better word for this context.

Similar problem, since my personal home server may sometimes need a restart and may be unreachable, I need something like this that works over the Internet. I use a cheap smart plug and PC auto start on power setting and it works beautifull
