Wow, I had almost exact same experience and had two more people in my coworking space encounter the same issue basically in the same month - we all tried to sell rather expensive stuff (300-600$ range) and were instantly suspended and no we

Honestly, we need to rework what we consider to be an aggregator and what we consider to be a publisher. I'd argue that Google these days fall in line more of a publisher than a search engine. More often than not I'm feeling th

Not OP but I've been experimenting with tortoise and it's pretty awesome! I love that it works with pydantic out of the box so it integrates with FastApi really nicely. I just started a small side project with fastapi + tortoise +

Could you elaborate more? Your comment doesn't make much sense otherwise - if anything I'd argue that NOT tying yourself to a single framework is what makes you grow into a senior developer. I'd argue that Python (or similar)

As someone who lives in SEA this obsession with e-bikes is rather fascinating. Modern ice motorbikes are dirt cheap (you can get one for the price of OPs battery pack) , easy to maintain and are surprisingly silent. Finally it can carry the

That's a very cool hack! Thanks for sharing. This does seem like a very big overhead just for one request: build up/tear down would be quite expensive. I actually noticed that there are personal VPNs that do not have a concurrent

Thanks, that's a great suggestion! I actually have an article on proxies in the works however I'm a bit stuck on making it a bit more accessible since proxy access is either really expensive (for a single dev) or extremely unstabl

I don't get this. People can still create 1000s of fake users on my website just by _buying captcha solves_? Type of spent resource is rather irrelevant, isn't it?

Solving captchas is pretty cheap too and will get increasingly cheaper with tech and AI improvements. ReCaptcha in particular is getting ridiculous to the point where people spend minutes solving it - I'd rather let my device sit idle

Google maps very often have menu photos for restaurant pages. We usually just pop the menu, find what we want and call the restaurant. It's often cheaper too and you know that all of your money is going to the restaurant.
