1. It was right after the first MVP was hosted on Heroku so not that much work. I had to write Dockerfiles and set up a CI/CD myself (Github Actions thank you). 2. I'm a dev with a bit of DevOps experience but mostly as a user. I

It can be optional! When you're joining a flat, select "I have no camera" in the audio video settings.

Firstly - thank you! I recently introduced a "floor builder" which allows you to select different tiles that you would like to use in your flat. This might be something more serious with professional looking meeting rooms or more

Hey! Please mind that the demo room is an open space to show off the features. Once you create your own flat, you are able to edit moderators, guest list, allowed email domains, banned list and keep the flat open and closed whenever you wan

Ah yes, flat.social has nothing to do with Calla but thanks for mentioning it, I'll have a look! As per the JS library for audio/video - I have used Mediasoup.

Hey, thank you! It's the latter - the audio is based on the distance and walls.

It seems from the website that InSpace is a proximity based chat app too so this aspect might be similar. I don't really see a demo there so hard for me to assess the exact differences! I'm experimenting with the revenue model rig

Spine problems from weights are no joke here for sure - been there, done that. That's why I emphasised on the professional trainer in the original post. Technique and staying within your limits are really important to avoid any injurie

I agree with this. One of the best things I've done last year was signing up to a powerlifting gym and working through all the basic movements (from a long warmup to compound movements) with a professional trainer. It did wonders for m

I use Typescript daily and I really enjoy working with it. I've been working with Javascript for quite a while and Typescript made my life a lot easier. I do however (possibly controversially) find the Javascript world in general rathe

I wonder, is moving from UK to US easy within a FAANG company? Is that something people do?

> To me this sounds like "code in pure HTML, no React/Angular or anything like that". Am I correct? That's not what I meant. With optimising page speed, there is a diminishing curve of returns from the perspective of

I second that. SEO is a slow growing channel and it takes some time to get effects. Starting earlier can help out. Also, make sure that your page loads fast - especially the content that you are trying to index. Low hanging fruit like optim

Thanks! I've been on it solo since last year. Progress from the product side is going pretty well but still a lot to do and optimise! Usage wise, it's in experimentation phase so the pattern is rather spiky ranging from silent day

That is how I have done it as well. In addition, almost every page has a footer with links that can direct existing users to pages like pricing, features, support etc.

While I mostly do ignore recruiters that don't put all the information upfront, I think there might be a couple reasons why they do that: - Incomplete information is provided purposefully to get you to the next step of the funnel which

While this is surely feasible (especially in London) I wonder how many of those outliers are marketing baits for recruitment agencies to collect CVs.

Error 503 unfortunately. I promise I was patient. Once back in the early 2000s I connected the floppy drive incorrectly and the entire thing melted inside with some smoke. It was rather funny at the time, mostly because it wasn't my co

Touching on your points: 1. "99% of remote workers are working from home" - we're in the middle of a massive pandemic so it's hard not to. 2. "(...) avoiding offices and commutes altogether, not replacing it with a

This is an excellent example of the difference between "working from home" and "working remotely". Those two terms unfortunately are used interchangeably as synonyms.
