Thank you for sharing! That is even more strict than what my tool calculates, as in 75% set aside for the future. The exact numbers likely also depend on where you reside, and how much of a social security net exists to catch you when thing

I am not sure what your background is, or whether you are, or have worked as, a freelancer. What I am writing might therefore be old news to you, in which case it would still be interesting to hear how you are thinking about the numbers I&#

I have exactly the same need (and problem too)! I'll monitor this thread and see if anyone else has any solutions to this. I really would like not to have node running on my server in order to get SSR! Which effectively means I'll

Hehe, shame this got down voted so much. It's actually a pretty hilarious Erlang joke. They made a video way back showcasing Erlang in the setting it was primarily used: telecom systems. In this video they keep calling and greeting ea

Except you have to be careful so the monthly amounts don't end up so small that the credit card processing fees eat up the majority of your donation! The processing done via Stripe (which is used by Donorbox) has a fixed minimum fee of

Recurring and steady incoming is certainly useful for any company, but I would advise against doing tiny monthly donations over a larger yearly one! Processing fees are going to take away a significant chunk of your total donation relativel

There is actually a very good reason to drop these email addresses, and the reason is that a high-rate of non-deliverable emails hurt your sender score. It's a total pain to get emails delivered to the major email providers in the firs

The irony is that you can now often recognize sites being designed with Tailwind the exact same way. They tend to use a certain font, they tend to slightly overuse the card metaphor with a rather specific corner radius and box shadow... Whe

Just a heads up: I tried leaving some feedback using the "Give Feedback!" link at the bottom of your site. Submitting the feedback resulted in a 500-error.

You _can_ negotiate with tech transfer offices, but it might not lead to much. We have been fighting with ours for ~8 years now. The terms keep getting worse. I think all told, and if I were to repeat it, I would certainly scrap the IP I ma

> Which is why GDPR, although theoretically a good idea, is pretty much useless in practice. This is very much not true. GDPR isn't restricted to regulating tracking on websites. It also restricts and regulates what companies can do

I went from Haskell to F# too. For more or less the same reasons you outline. Better and more consistent tooling. Significantly easier debugging. Not all the benefits of the Haskell type system sure, but enough of them to make classes of er

I agree! I would have expected the banks to pay on the order of $4k/month each. Maybe the enterprise plan isn't aggressively enough priced, or aggressively enough differentiated..?

The github issue you linked to and the discussion it contains is the reason I am sticking with dokku. The CapRover maintainer seems to argue in bad faith and not have the users best interest at heart.

For those coming across this post later, here is a nice comparison of FastSpring, Paddle, Gumroad, and Avangate [1] (in fact the whole post is an interesting read). It also sounds like Quaderno [2] + Stripe is a common and decent combo. I

I use a VPS at Hetzner, but a whole lot of traffic sites stop working when I am using the VPN. I bet in part it is due to the CloudFlare's efforts to "Cleaning up Bad Bots" [1]. In this article under how they detect bots they

How does one go about doing that? Getting an ASN I mean? Edit: did some reading [1]. Clearly it's not easy to get an ASN. Not something a private person would do. 1: https://www.apnic.net/get-ip/faqs/asn/
