Starting a VPN is super easy so I’d imagine it’s mostly people who want a easy cloud based revenue maker. You probably don’t even need to program anything these days to start one. Low barrier of entry and decent(?) margins, low initial inve

If you cater to the international market (“make everyone happy”). The you’ll inevitably end up with cookie cutter inoffensive garbage like we’re spewing out now. Get a few reliable IPs and milk them for all they’re worth. If I think about s

I'm surprised there's no onboard storage option yet. I just got the Rasp Zero for a small build with a sensor and I've been super happy with the tiniest computer but I can't imagine they couldn't put storage on the

This is the strength of NASA. They can do crazy one offs rather than having to build financially feasible platforms all the time

And what the ROI is. Tens (hundreds?) of thousands of dead people and stalling the taliban for a little bit versus unlocking mysteries into the origins of the universe

The oldest galaxies that have red shifted off the spectrum and are only visible with this. You can’t do IR telescoping except at L2 because earth is giving off its own IR reflection or radiation or something like that

Surely not all ransomwear hackers are Russian? At least not for long given how effective and visible they have been lately. Seems like a easy field to hop into and make millions

Why improve overall cyber security which is at completely garbage levels at most companies when you can blame crypto instead? It just seems like the bill on security has come due and I recommend paying it. Otherwise you leave the economy op

Bitcoin is like the digital gold. We can all agree on that. I don’t understand why the maxis can’t be happy with that and have to sully any other competitor in the space that are actually trying to be a currency or dozens of other potential

Depends how far along she is. I changed to a less stressful and better paid and better leave job about 4 months before birth and it was a great move. I also went from 0 to 4 weeks of parental leave which I didn’t even know at the time

Agreed. I was there from the early days from one of the forums I was at. Probably something awful. He pivoted so many times, it was for the longest time supposed to be the most expansive and realistic (2D) RPG there ever was. Then the Ninte

It’s really up to you who cares about something to archive it. I managed to find a torrent of early days video games from my region that has almost been lost to time. Luckily I found a discord and could coax someone to hop on to seed it. If

It’s also not just WFH. Covid made many people think hard about their lives with all the extra idle time they had and traumatic and world changing events tend to do that. I left my job in February because I realized I wasn’t happy and could

I just started reading Fooled by Randomness and Taleb makes this exact point. People just make up a story afterwards about why they were successful but it’s completely meaningless fiction and Cherry picking

I don’t even know if serving the menu from a data center on the other side of the country is more environmentally friendly. Besides talk about “high hanging fruit “ if what, a 100 pieces of recyclable paper per restaurant are the environmen

I had fertility issues and my urologist showed me how sperm levels generally follow a wave pattern and taking the sample at the bottom and the top can have a very significant delta

I’ll say it. Bring back menus, QR code’s are terrible. You already printed this goofy thing why not just print the menu so I don’t have to dick around with some PDF on my phone. Perfect example of a solution looking for a problem

The basics do wonders. Healthy diet, meditation, regular exercise, plentiful sleep. Other than that it’s specific to your situation and what you can change. For me my job was the source of most of it so I switched to a chill but better paid

What would be the incentive not to? Honor among thieves? You know they’re vulnerable to the attack (the hard part?) so why not keep doing it until they shore up their defenses.

Almost every scam gives money to the early adopters. It would only be a ponzi if they claimed that there was some kind of a business/mechanism that’s generating the revenue when it’s actually coming from the fools downstream from you.

Meh. As someone who has moved around a lot this just sounds like friend nepotism. Based on this system I’d be a garbage tier developer since I don’t have friends in high places. I much prefer the imperfect systems that at least pretend to b

These are not Ponzi schemes. In a ponzi you have a mechanism to distribute money to early adopters in the tree. These are just pump and dumps but you create and pre-mine the asset before pumping it. There were ponzis some years back like On
