Great, sounds like you found a perfect product for your use case.

OK, that makes sense. I'm sure you've thought of this, but you are inline with your lead generators terms of service by charging for your product? I'd hate to see you get in troubl…

To add onto this, how much manual intervention is required in creating the list and contacting them? I feel like there's a reason the competition costs so much more. Seems like, ev…

Not sure why someone would do this, but even without a plugin you can go to General Settings and set New User Default Role to Author. This would give any new accounts the ability t…

I've always thought Crock Pot was a brand. It's the Kleenex of slow cookers. I call my slow cooker a crock pot even though it's made by some Target brand.

I googled it. What I found is "the belief that the tech industry isn’t diverse because of a scarcity of available talent".

I guess aren't all files "data files"? When I think data files I think of a file that contains data points (CSV, tabular, etc).

Yup, I was using chrome and was totally lost.

You pay per second of usage and the ACU starts and shuts down automatically. If your DB is only actually accessed a occasionally then you are not paying for 24hrs of usage. I think…

I think a change to the license model to make it subscription based and then the subsequent changes to the software along with a license server would have been just as effective. N…

Did you mean COBOL or did he misspell it and that's why he couldn't find one?

SEO, cold email, etc. I'm sure even linkedin would be a good target for something like this since it's a pool of recruiters.

This is going to be dependent on a few factors (market, product, etc.) but I'd rather be an affiliate for a product with a proven track record of conversions unless I really love a…

You're on HN though. When I used to do websites I would give options with tiered prices. Something on SquareSpace (or similar) would be a cheaper option but I would let them know w…

What are the selling points? It's been a really, really long time since I used one but I feel like side by side work would be constrained by it.

In a LCOL area and putting out 50% of income over 8 years would do it. FIRE people are a lot more aggressive than that.

Do you still have ChromeOS on it?

At the bottom there is a link to the inspiration for this project. It has a much better format. "You can already do this:" "Now you can do this:" which actually shows the differenc…

Technically you can. You can run a SSD array in RAID5, 6 or 10, and lose a little bit of performance but get the capacity needed.

We've been through most of them. I liked Hello Fresh but that wasn't amazing either. Even though ingredients are mostly prepped the preparation and cooking can be pretty time consu…

I had pretty much the same experience. I programmed an API to talk to a payment gateway connected to a chase merchant account some years ago. It was not fun. When I setup Stripe I …

I had no idea either. I use it almost every day.

It'll be interesting to see how they can sell this as anything other than a kit car. Kit cars do not get held to the same standards as a manufactured vehicle, but you have to put i…

DO has bot-checking software too. They just (legitimately) caught some traffic on one of my VPSs and shut off networking, but that was due to having outgoing traffic exceeding 1000…

Or plugins. Then say "Hey, we now have this plugin available for only $x.xx".
