Whether it is a fee or tax is less about whether it funds the government and more about whether when you pay the amount you get some benefit that you wouldn’t if you didn’t pay (ab…

If the request data is larger than the limit it doesn’t get processed by the Cloudflare system. By increasing buffer size they process (and therefore protect) more requests.

We migrated to remeda from Lodash and are pretty happy. https://remedajs.com/ What do you do differently?

Looks interesting. What is the feature difference between this and Inngest?

We absolutely love Meilesearch. We run it on our own servers and air has been rock solid and the search results are better than anything comparable.

The tech is impressive and the pricing is attractive which is why we use them. I just wish there was less black magic.

fly.io just has the weirdest outages. It has issues so regularly we dont even need to run mock outages to make sure our system fail overs work.

Funnily enough neon does not offer an easy way to upgrade database compared to other managed database hosting.

Iceland the country won its trademark case agains Iceland the supermarket chain so there is probably something to it. EUIPO "[Iceland Supermarket] cannot reasonably trademark the n…

Ahhhh billing the great unsolved problem. In 2021 Cloudflare was charging me $5 a month with no way to turn it off and no help from the support desk. It took an, unanswered, email …

Jetbrains only “did it right” because there was huge community outcry about their move to pure subscription so they moved to the “if you subscribe for X amount of time you get to k…

We are billing more than $1000 a month :). The providers didn’t want our business for less than $1000 per month (at a heavily discounted time limited price). We talked to this many…

Got trapped by the same thing. Usage based billing is a huge pain point for us we were really excited by lago but dont want to self host infra if we can outsource it. We ended up t…

If they go into liquidation or restructure then all their liabilities go up for renegotiation. So the threat of this happening makes all contracts renogotiable regardless of timeli…

Yes huge +1 to t3. Given how opinionated t3 is I wish they added (even if optional) more must haves like testing and background workers.

An app that makes a great use of the widgets in iOS is Blinq, a digital business card app [0]. I find it super handy to be able to access the contact QR code without fiddling with …

There would have been dilution at every subsequent round (or additional investments) so that profit per $10,000 is probably 30-50% less than $8mil.

The events in the US are appalling! On one hand I am glad that FB and Twitter are taking these steps but on the other I am deeply uncomfortable. One of the things FB is removing is…

If you are trying to bootstrap something, 10K (and a free co-working space) in a city where a two bedroom apartment costs $800 rather than $4000 is pretty sweet depending on your l…

I have been playing around with Typesense and MeileSearch. Typesense was quicker to get started with but MeileSearch sorting made more sense.

The consumer is harmed because there is no one incentivised to create new content, or at least the incentives are severely diminished. In the story here the celebrity net worth dat…

Yes because it is an easy way to craft what ever narrative is desired. There are people with ever possible view point on twitter so once you have the narrative you can find the app…
