Congrats on the public launch. Some of our customers have been trying you out over the last year and I've been hearing good things. When things calm down from the launch, we should speak further. We built / released our own Compan

That's a good idea. I think a blog post explaining the strategy further could be helpful for a lot of devs. To be frank though, I really don't have time at the moment. My typical blog post takes a few days to write, and I'm c

Because most of the code you write at a previous job is not going to publicly available. So I have no other reference point as to your current skills. Apart from just the code itself, having side projects is a good sign of valuable, non-tec

I replaced "normal" TV with occasional documentaries, news, educational programs, TED talks, etc. If I'm feeling lazy and don't want to read a book, something like Vice on HBO is pretty legit.

It depends on your situation. Part of mine is that I've had 3 bosses straight up steal money from me over the years. So the fear/pain of getting screwed by another boss is greater than the pain of starting a company. Apart from th

Idk if it's just me, but it hurt my eyes to look at that site. The dark background and red/pink font were too much. Apart from that, it looks awesome.

This looks really interesting. We've been having challenges internally where we have a number of microservices, some running locally for active dev, while some running in a dev/staging env we connect to via ssh. I have some experi

I was thinking the same. Realistically, I believe the only way you could do that on the client would be JS. But if they added that, it would change all their feel good marketing about no JS...

Yeah. That's why I bought a webcam cover. I highly recommend if you don't have one already.

From my experience, as I did exactly that.. - If you're looking for a new job, find one that has a good work life balance and where you will learn skills relevant to what you want to do. In my case, I was weak in dev ops, so I picked a

I've evaluated Timescale, Clickhouse, Druid, and Pinot for our own use case. Druid and Pinot have a lot of moving parts. If I remember correctly, Druid was something like 6-8 different nodes for different parts of the ingestion /

Being a small team, we try to have managed hosting as much as possible. One less thing to think/worry about. Then our stack is primarily in AWS. So when it comes to DBs, I'd prefer to keep it all within our VPC for security /

For sure. Like I said, I usually do a custom build of a framework, then strip out the stuff I don't need. And if it's designed with variables, changing small stuff like breakpoints etc is maybe a few quick changes.

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll have to think it over, but it seems like the general sentiment here is towards taking the job.

Tried that. I got 1/3 refunded so that helped a bit, but it's still ~6x what I had planned vs the 10x bill.
