(for those mentally converting nm to nano meter and scratching your head) I think nm here means nautical mile which makes more sense in context than nanometer.

PaaS is probably the right term and you’re right that the original comment was about buying bare metal servers to offer value added services. When I made my comment, it was half in jest so I didn’t think through every word choice of mine.

Very invaluable feedback. I’ll find a way to make the landing page better. Thank you. Edit: s/valuable/invaluable!

I’m probably using the term very loosely but PretzelBox can be used to host a website, store and share images and files (like Dropbox or Imgur or wetransfer) and integrates with AWS to give you an entire backend you can extend to run a whol

No nonononono, I don’t have any idea how to make or sell Notion templates. This is an AWS backed storage and hosting solution through and through. Your emails use SES for send/receive, files are stored in S3, auth is managed using cogn

I sense that you haven’t fully internalized the idea of some of the popular open source licenses. Such licenses are a bit like letting go of a balloon. Most times, the balloon will float away and pop on some tree with no benefit to anyone.

Tbh, you don’t have a point of view on Facebook that people have come around to. You didn’t like FB for their condescension. Today people are walking out of fb for their business practices (and ppbly a myriad other reasons). Your reason and

Tangent but what’s “erging”? Never heard this before and the spellcheck has a red squiggly below it, so it has not heard of it either.

I saw that the article mentioned maintenance being minimal right now but at some point, you will need to hire an SRE or some such individual to handle just the Hetzner subsystem for you. Is that part of the TCO calculations? E.g., if you’re

How’s it immoral to make sure the public knows that a product they are planning to use has been declared illegal in a certain jurisdiction? In fact, given the state of regulatory capture, it’s a public service to educate consumers locally a

Yeah, fight with whatever tool you have including going negative. I don’t for a second think Google would hold back if their own behemoth was in under mortal threat and their main competitor had been found guilty of illegal acts. The invisi

I agree. GP comment brings to mind the infamous reply to Dropbox Show HN which compared it to something users could trivially implement using basic Unix commands.

Damn! They really are the vampire squid of technology sticking their money sucking tentacles into every little bubble of innovation, draining it of life and opportunity. Thanks for sharing. I didn’t know about this. I’m going to create a pr

This fascination with primes is has, of late, seemed to be a little misplaced to me. Primes emerge as a property of the number system that you have. The number system itself is an an approximation of the natural world where actions like add

Then the definition of both totalitarian and authoritarian needs to be expanded and made inclusive. There’s no central figure/politburo telling a believer in caste that they have to believe in it for the greater good. It’s Vaclav Havel

I don’t see it the same way. Indian society - not the country because that’s a new creation - has been around for a few thousand years. It hasn’t devolved into anarchy, neither is it totalitarian in the way you are using the word. They (wel

Maybe the higher place of existence is to find humor in playing subtle pranks on our fellow man. I mean, most fun gods were also pranksters.

I’m not a fan of endless global restrictions either. If we don’t like to live with global restrictions at someone else’s say so, why should we expect teachers to go out to teach at our say so? As a group, they have chosen to stay home and t
