If you don't care for which components Appwrite uses, that means you bet on Appwrite being around forever? Most technologies come and go. So when Appwrite goes away, your applications will fall apart?

This is not called XSS. This is just user generated html on subdomains. Github does the same on github.io. Everybody can make a theirname.github.io page and alert whatever they like too. So does Gitlab on yourname.gitlab.io, Wordpress on yo

Upwork. I know that many here despise Upwork, but they are wrong. You will need to build a profile before you can earn higher hourly rates, but then it is great. Better to invest a few months of your life in building a profile and then be f

Is fraud even possible with crypto? As I understand it: When A pays B with Bitcoin via the Lightning Network, B can almost instantly be sure that they have the money. There is no way for A or an intermediary to take it back.

Stripe can easily lose very large amounts of money on individual accounts How so? Is that because Stripe settles the payment on their end (they pay the merchant) before the payment to Stripe is settled? Can crypto solve this?

There is Product Chart [1], a site by a HN user. But I think it has the focus more on the user interface than on a broad product index. [1] https://www.productchart.com

I think a good hedge against the web becoming more and more bureaucratic is to invest in the internet giants like Google and Facebook. It is such a tailwind for them. Every piece of regulation you have to comply with gives them an edge over

We are already there. Europeans all use Coinbase and other US exchanges. Coinbase alone brought over $80B in market cap to the US. 100 times more than the market cap of Yahoo when it IPOed.

If you compile it yourself, how do security updates get to your system? As for a more recent Debian version: The latest stable Debian has sqlite3 3.27.2 in the repos, so that is not an option.

What makes multi-tenancy easier in Postgres than in any other DB?

That is cool. What is a good way to use 3.35.4 on a system with a Debian version that comes with an older SQLite version?

I wish someone would write a set of shell scripts that overcome the hardships when dealing with SQLite databases. For example, deleting a column is a pain in the ass. A single purpose script "rename_column.sh" would be nice, which

I would not use GitHub these days. On GitLab, you can decide to download all your data anytime and put it into a selfhosted GitLab instance. Why would I want to give that up and put my balls into the hands of Microsoft?
