Doesn’t that enable hostile takeover of land? If I own a school or restaurant, and Apple wants to replace it with a store, they can place a bid such that I can no longer afford the taxes and am forced to sell to them. Wouldn’t such a system

ubersuggest has a good backlink and keyword volume database for its price. But ahrefs is still the most comprehensive (just expensive).

It depends on the person. In my country it is popular for the poor to sell flowers or snacks at stoplights, and I usually always buy flowers. But in the US it seems most at stoplights are bumming for drugs or alcohol. That said, I think don

CloudFlare. They log unique hits for free, which is enough for me to calculate my conversion rate and see the result of my marketing efforts. In over a decade of working with SaaS companies I’ve never once seen concrete action taken as a re

I scan everything with my phone and store in iCloud. I shred everything except what must be kept as paper originals (a few government documents). I stick this all into a single folder, and this folder is small since there are few document

Here’s my latest browser issue that drove me crazy: In Safari the TextMetrics.actualBoundingBoxRight returned from CanvasRenderingContext2D.measureText() includes dangling spaces, and Chrome does not. So you’ll get different text measuremen

Wow that’s a lot of experience! I think with a bit of formatting and focus your resume will look even better. As others mentioned, clean-up the formatting (consider a two-column layout). Pick the three most impressive accomplishments for ea

I would listen to your users, and think about your customer acquisition channels. Unless you rely heavily on SEO for customer acquisition, I doubt it’s going to be an issue. People are still going to call Facebook “Facebook”. Nobody calls G

Sure, but then there’s no point to a peer-to-peer decentralized cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency is a peer-to-peer decentralized network. The government can’t stop me from sending or receiving cryptocurrency.

What’s the justification for spending money on this? So many more useful things to do than buy an expensive domain to redirect it here.

Neither. The purpose of cryptocurrency is peer-to-peer transactions. No central bank, no retail banks, no payment processors, no KYC, no gatekeeping. A few days ago there was a thread about Stripe locking a business’ account for no reason,

Consider just signing up for Shopify and being done with it. What are the custom features? It’s likely there are already Shopify plug-ins/services for this.

Writers do measure productivity by pages written… sure, they may not write a best seller, but there’s a date they start writing and a date the book is published and the book has a word count. I agree though that lines of code or number of p

Launching to the public first and warm leads second is backwards. You should put it in front of some of your warm leads immediately. In my experience, whatever you’ve made will need to be changed (probably significantly) after you get fee

A single VPS server with a GitHub action that builds and syncs code to the server using Git, with a bash one-liner to restart the server. Properly configured this can serve millions of requests. A cron job which saves a copy of the DB to S3

I use voip.ms and forward my virtual number SMS to email. It costs a fraction of a penny per message. There’s no monthly fee. I don’t have a real phone number at all.

Google’s UI is so terrible I can’t use it. Most of the results page isn’t search results, but ads, Twitter, news story, or other asides, and way too much whitespace. That’s why I use DDG, it has almost nothing to do with privacy or quality
