2 things to add: - I'd decouple the database writes with a message queue. - Make sure that table is partitioned if you haven't. TimescaleDB's hyper tables are a good compromise here if you are already using Postgres..

I have one running with a ~5TB big unpartitioned table. Adding ~9M rows per day, with significant read load via 2 replicas. Works just fine on a 32 GB memory RDS instance. There is another table half the amount of rows and I join the two 10

Had this happen to me as a client on Upwork. Interviewed some Italian guy, but when the job started a Russian guy with Asian roots was on the cam. Somehow I understand his situation, but nevertheless ended the call after one minute.

Some CTO guy who I work with does this with the password for internal docs. He thinks he is 1337. How long will it take, until someone gains access? I consider this an intentional security leak.

Absolutely agree with the poster. This is my life at the moment. Just to take money for a small piece of software I built. Multiple currencies, trial periods, when in the process do you ask for the creditcard, country specific taxes,... And

Appreciate your answer. I built a very niche monitoring product for sysadmins. Actually I built it for myself three years ago, but I want to explore if others would pay for it. If you are in the space, or anyone else who reads this I'd

What are some possible ways to invest a few hundred bucks, for getting interviews with intended customers? I'm truly curious. Or do you mean he should have invested into a designer to create mockups?
