In today’s SV mantra, standing still means falling behind, and waiting until you either get disrupted by other startups, copied by big tech, or both. No, something must be done, and trying to force themselves deeper into their customers’ wo

Surely you'd agree that "trying to be pseudonymous but not taking it very seriously" and "being published in the new york times" are substantially different things, no? One can do the former and reasonably not expec

I have a bit of experience with this. A SaaS company I used to work with did this while I worked there, primarily due to our legacy architecture (not originally being a SaaS company) We already had experience writing DB migrations that were

I didn't get around to checking out your product yet, but from your comment and the guide you linked it doesn't sound like you've actually solved any of these pain points in a meaningful way. It would be REALLY COOL to have a

I'm going to check out your product on the weekend. It looks pretty neat. But it would be cool to hear a bit more about how you achieve some of your stated claims. Particularly working with debuggers. The kubernetes/minikube setup

Take a look at this defcon talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JokZUjwGj4M If message history goes into that database and is not sanitised properly there's a good chance this gives other conference participants RCE.

I would hope the state of California would care. I have no idea how you're meant to try to enforce your rights under CCPA other than by hiring a lawyer. I filed a complaint with my local data protection authority a couple of years back

Until the end of this year nothing will change. You can still move to and settle in the UK, if you're crazy enough to want to for some reason. It's not yet known what the situation will look like post-2020. You'll need to app

DisplayLink transports video over the USB bus, rather than using one of the alt modes of USB-C. As you can imagine, this introduces compression artefacts and substantial CPU overhead. It's passable for web browsing. Watching any sort o

mac OS is plenty usable without an Apple account. It was still possible to install OS updates through the app store without an apple account. Now in Mojave it has become much easier, as they have moved OS updates to System Preferences.
