In HN context, a more suitable example is "fail fast" vs "persevere". Both are sound advices in the right context.
I'd say knowledge is not the only thing you need. It's one thing to know, and entirely another thing to be able to recall and apply that knowledge when it matters. The application of knowledge gets trickier because…
Well, we focus on building high-traffic/large-scale apps. The tech stack does not matter. Our skills are easier to demonstrate if customers have existing performance/design bottlenecks. Not something that other dev…
As someone who runs a niche dev shop in India (not the kind that you describe though), I have found that new work has been hard to come by since last 6 months, especially for services like ours that are on the premium…
Well, I have found that it changes with numbers and age of the device. Generally speaking, you are right though.
They'd be adequate at running a bunch of services, but cannot bring the connectivity and reliability that AWS provides. I myself have been running a bunch of Chinese Mini-PCs to the same effect since last few years now,…

That would be awesome. Looking forward to it.
I just left my well-paying job to start working on my idea about 4 months back. I didn't have much savings (I've been hasty to quit my job), so I am working on consulting gigs part time. It pays enough to cover my bills…
We had a filtered internet access at the consulting company I used to work for, which blocked personal mails, social networks and blogging platforms and software downloads (apparently, you need approval of the IT…
Actually, I am developing similar application. I think we should have a discussion about it and join the forces if feasible.
