Really a great idea for a business. It won't likely go upsetting the powerhouses of the clothing industry but that doesn't mean there isn't a large revenue stream to be had on those of us who fall into these areas. Millions m

In the states, if you fall into a certain number of body types and desire properly fitting clothing your options are very limited without tailoring. For me, even clothing that is aimed at my body type doesn't fit well. I appear to be

Very interesting, as this is the first time seeing your company. Perhaps I missed this (I went over about three pages on the website), but: 1) How much are you trying to raise? What if it fails to meet the goal? 2) How exactly can I get a p

I know of solid devs in some of the areas I work that typically can take it. Otherwise, much of it is very niche both in domain and technology so it is up to the companies to find another route (sadly).

Not to mention the much more likely attack vectors with this approach over a safe/deposit box based approach (which you might be alluding to): - This has a big assumption that 2FA cannot be bypassed AND other service exploits are

The point is not how much time it saves this user this instance, but rather that it is an on going site issue affecting tens of thousands of users.

Near zero. Instead, I focus on being on the absolute top of my game (e.g. study hours a day, examine lots of open source code to improve, read research papers, etc), constantly reevaluate my approaches to improve (across the board, not just

Hmm... I should reframe this. I just noted it says personal. I didn't see the qualifier, ignore my previous post as it is for my actual business data (e.g. huge persisted data stores, logs, etc). Personal looks like: - Two or more

Never trust a single piece of hardware. Never trust two either. For me: - SANs/NASes make use of ZFS-Z2 or RAID 6. But, RAID is NOT a backup! - Have two or four separate backups in rotation (depending on how critical the data i

It has worked for me with forms that take less than 1000ms. For simple one field forms, they typically have a reasonable length requirement on my platforms (e.g. 32 characters). Things that fit in less than that length are typically things

One time tested approach for me is to very precisely measure how long the fastest human could fill out a specific form in ms (must be done per form, and must consider browser autofilling). Then, include an encrypted timestamp value as a hid

Not only the fluff, but the folks that put dozens of languages and technologies that are unrelated to one another. Being a polyglot myself, I still end up focusing on one or two languages to the point that I'd be comfortable putting th

It is critical to understand what you are measuring. I see misunderstanding constantly, particularly with GA. Were events being fired prior, because they are now. That alone could account for this behavior. There are many nuances in regard

If I can't properly develop and support them, they go to that big hard drive in the sky. I take the approach of failing as fast as possible. If code is in this state, it is now failing. It's time to move on to bigger and better th

I'd colocate if you have a proven/reliable revenue stream, predictable growth, you anticipate more than 6-RUs worth of servers, or need very high speced servers (e.g. 192GB of RAM in one box). You can build entire servers for the

I am already blown away at this level already. I see companies pooring money into Heroku/AWS/etc and can't fathom spending a mortgage level type cost for some RAM (e.g. 92+ GB). Don't get me wrong, there IS a use case fo

It pretty quickly starts making sense. I've had clients paying 50k per month to AWS when they have no earthly business paying more than 5k for someone versed in all this. I don't believe most software folks realize just how much c

The higher specs you need in a single server the greater the savings vs AWS.

You can build the same server for less than $1500 and colo at $100. FYI.
