I don't agree. The right person most likely had spent 5 months prior to get to the point of being able to do it in a day. This 5 months of trial and error is called learning.

I'm not reading any book in 2019. I usually find a moment of quiet during lunch and I would read then. But it developed into an eating habit and, as a side effect, a weight gain. I want to focus on building practical things this year i

Lots of good common sense advice and practical experience there. I've had my fair share as a devops/sysadmin working on crazy systems (more worse than better haha). So it's unsurprising how common sense isn't always put

Edited to mention Varnish. Also, adding caches is still resource scaling. This is a semantically correct. Caching can indeed cut down on resource usage. It isn't always a scale-up operation.

I'm not sure resource scaling is what's needed here. Just good ol' caching. Shameless plug: I built Cachoid[0] for caching as a service (leveraging Varnish mainly) to help with situations like this. [0] https://www

I had tentatively been planning on a freemium model, and I could not have been more wrong. Users were unanimously and strongly against it, so I had to find another way This took me by surprise. Why is HN against freemiums? I'm debati

I've had exposure to these hugs for a variety of websites. I'm not sure how it started but people I had helped with traffic isues started referring others to me. Anyway I got a glimpse of a pattern in a lot of these sites. So deci

Do you often find yourself having to adjust capacity when under traffic spikes? Would be happy to help smooth out the traffic using off server caching ( see https://www.cachoid.com ). Fremium plan would work well. Feel free to e
