Just adding a datapoint. I run a SaaS where people can run their own (Javascript) code. The first thing I did was block any Coinhvive script as those were the first obvious abusers of the service. Coinhive is now, for me at least, always as

Probably a mix. Most if not all Dutch have one normal bicycle. Multiple per household. This would probably be an addition.

In an ideal world where all facts are known before hand, yes. In a fast moving startup with toxic management? Good luck.

Weirdly, the salary for a role suitable to me is kinda above market rate.

Again, this is a pretty though thing to do fairly as what is fair is basically subjective.

Should there be some kind of “shit list” or “toxic list” for tech companies? Admittedly, public shaming & blaming is tricky if you don’t know the context, and faking a Slack screenshot is trivial (not saying the one here is fake). I gue

hard problem to crack, but the reasoning in the "Standard pay eats away at production and personnel" paragraph is a bit simplistic. It's not explaining or supporting the "why". It is just stating the obvious.

I have a Kindle. I read mostly hard science fiction and popular science. However, Amazon’s recommendation thing always shows me women’s romance novels, Danish crime and period dramas.

The "Spill-over" effects are a great observation. In previous teams I had at least 1 or 2 guys I would really not trust remotely. They just needed fairly constant motivation and for lack of a better word "baby sitting".

Yes, there is a $$ cost in the trial period. In my case they use cloud resources (lambda time mostly). But there is also the "clogging" of analytics pipelines, reports and overview in general. If for every geniune paying business

If someone offered the advice "just follow these steps and you'll be successful" I would classify that as "snake oil". Or being a crook. Most books in this category that I've read ("zero to one", &quo

Anyone selling/providing such a guide is probably deluded or, in worst case, a crook. There could certainly be a guide to “creating a startup”. The “successful” part makes it a bit hairy though.

Hard to put into words except for "it just works". But let me try: - The CLI / toolbelt is pretty amazing. You can do all sorts of analysis right in your terminal. - The upgrading/crossgrading is pretty easy to. - Attach

Heroku's ecosystem around their Postgres offering is pretty advanced. It will certainly take a lot of time for DO to even catch up to this.

I use this on a daily basis for Postgres and some really basic Redis work. Recommended.

Gorgeous, and works better on my Ipad than my Macbook. Does anyone have any idea why?

On Reddit, the /devops sub is pretty good. Very low fluff, no link spamming. Very different from the overrun /webdev or /programming.

Yes, got that same vibe but still I think the post was useful. Meeting culture in fast moving companies can either be a great force and accelerator or a dreadful showstopper. I think the points made in the post can be applied to much smalle

Well, I bet there are continents of people who would love a corporate IT job at WF. You make it seem like it's equivalent to mining coal in the 1920's.

Yes, a lock-in that can be avoided with a 20 to 30 line piece of Javascript that just handles the messages and passes it to your cloud agnostic piece of business code.

I’m Dutch. All of the requested data are legal to request as an employer in the Netherlands. Asking for an IBAN number (which is not considered “secret” btw) up front is a bit much though. You would only need that in case you are hired and

Ah yes, the good old “Dildo King” ads always put a smile on my face and remind me that Germans (and Berliners even more) are not yet 100% sucked up into the US / SV stance on morality and censorship. I noticed in Berlin startups that t
