It says in the article that the author gets 34k daily users, and 50k unique users/month. It would have been clearer if the author had talked about sessions (which are therefore > 1M/mo) for sure, but you're still making a very big (and invalid) assumption.

EDIT: Please disregard the above. I need an eye test, or maybe just to put my glasses on! Daily users are 3.4k (3400), not 34k. My apologies, I take it all back!

You can still read Dabiq.[1] That was ISIL's magazine, in English. It's worth reading, but not taking too seriously.

Kids in school should be exposed to extremist propaganda from all sides. Start with the extremist propaganda of another era, say the 1920s - the Industrial Workers of the World, the German-American Bund, the Communist Party of the USA, Technocracy, America First (the Lindburgh version, not the Trump version), etc.
This is a survival skill today.

Sure, but that's like saying my coffee machine also makes latte and hot chocolate. I guess what I'm asking is: do any of these taste bad, and how? Perhaps the parent had a few of these on his/her mind that could have been listed.
That's not how green/blue deployments work. You don't keep both colors up unless you have completely failed to understand the concept.

Green/Blue is all about saving resources and costs, not keeping them around. You misread the cause here. It has nothing to do with deployment strategies.
Unlike other tools on the market, we have designed KaDeck to be used by both developers and business users (or data analysts).

An important unique selling point is for example the possibility to filter by attributes, to write complex logic in Java Script, which also makes it possible to modify the data.

The web version offers team features and a detailed rights system. If I want to add more users beyond the free user, additional user licenses have to be purchased (15$/month).

There are many more features to be added, which I don't want to reveal at this point.

I am looking forward to your feedback!

I think this article is frankly PR to get their users to generate revenue. It has nothing to do with the cost of hosting a python webapp.

If it's using gravity, what happens if this whole reactor gets tilted? What happens at 10 degrees? 45? 90? 180? Are there any critical angles where it would melt down?

I'm curious how you would make such a design that would be both using gravity yet tolerate being moved around.

If you're just serving them (eg no image manipulation), that sounds like there's a problem somewhere.
Government, banks, big non-tech corporations in general. In particular, my observation is that anything "data" related (big data, data warehousing, any kinds of report building) can be technically easy (certainly easier than a CRUD app - also easier to maintain, since it's typically not running 24/7), well paying and populated by not that strong people. These data applications often have a lot of value to the business and hence they're willing to pay for smart people who will swallow their pride, handle the boredom and just get the job done.

Bear in mind that by being a borderline slacker you exclude yourself from any promotions and from doing more "interesting" work, but in many places you'll still get paid. Also, tech moves fast and, if you don't learn, you'll have problems 10-20 years down the road.

I don't think we can be sure Facebook isn't wasting money on their infrastructure. They've shown themselves to be pretty wasteful in the past.[0][1] They're just rich enough to get away with it.

Facebook's application may be doing a lot more to their users than a simpler app, but I doubt it's doing that much for users.

We use Google cloud run for this. They bill per request and you can run whatever docker container you want. I currently have a small setup with two separate kotlin based server applications running there (one based on spring boot and one on ktor). We use firestore as a cheap datbase (billed per read & write). Both have a free tier. So it's costing us next to nothing currently because neither docker container is getting a lot of traffic. Basically the bill for last month was only around 2$ for one of these applications (the other one I only deployed a few days ago).

Basically, at some point it gets expensive of course but when you are simply testing out stuff and don't expect a lot of users to show up, it's actually not bad.
I don’t think this is accurate. Surely it depends on the specific pot. If you consume cbd are you cognitively impaired? Probably not. What about mostly cbd and <1% thc? <5% thc? Or maybe all thc and little cbd. All of these will have different outcomes.
Ugh, please name and shame the [de]serializer that was silently converting a string to a boolean.
Similar situation (sub $1k/month) to the setup im doing for a start up in indonesia (top 7k in alexa, top 150 in indonesia), except we have to pay extra for media because we need to process the logs (long tail pdf/data/docx hits, and we need to control the dns and how other domains route to use so we cant use cloudflare). And still plenty of room to cost optimize.

Another consultant that came in and try to do this, made our costs go up by 10x per month… so i'm not surprised when I see stuff like this here…

The knowledge of ones tools available at ones finger tips and the relative costs of such seem to make the difference for these things.

Turbo C++ 1.0 for MS-DOS could be had for about 100 euros on 1990's money, and it was just a couple of floppies.

No way you could get your hands on an Ada compiler for MS-DOS in a similar way.
It’s partly open source and partly freeware. They could just make docker for windows/mac a paid software. I would pay for it if they would listen more to the community when a bug is found. They seem to ignore many bugs Docker Desktop on GitHub. I like about the podman Tools that there is a community effort from Red Hat. It’s not 100% compatible with docker and probably never will. So I will just hope that Microsoft or Canonical buys Docker and make it more open to the Community.
Sounds great. What's important to understand with high vitamin D doses is that overdoses can occur unregulated by the body.

The regulation of vitamin D usually occurs before its synthesis after sunlight exposure. Supplementing synthesized vitamin D circumvents the regulation and allows vitaminosis to happen.

I have read wildly different recommendations for the dose. Typical package is 1000 IU, you take 2000 IU, others recommend upwards of 8000 IU due to possible issues with earlier studies leading to FDA/regulatory agencies recommendations. Again, rather stay below 5000 IU unless explicitly told otherwise by a doc. Always get blood work done to REALLY figure out your levels and how to fix them.

Again, why we can overdose with supplements but too much sunlight won't cause an overdose:

Sunlight + components ---> X (regulation) <---> Vitamin D ---> effect in body

Supplements start behind the regulation step...
Allowing does not mean mandate right?
I don’t understand some of the comments quibbling over how this person has a “bloated” stack because it costs more than whatever irrationally frugal setup they’ve created for an app that does X specific thing.

Here’s a bigger point:

If you’ve got 55,000 monthly active users, and $171 per month doesn’t feel like a rounding error to you, then what you made isn’t actually valuable.

Spending any amount of hours to reduce that already small number is a giant waste of time for anybody who has that level of traction.
What http server do you use ? Are they static images ?
Haha, the man is clearly a beast of a product designer and executor. I don't think I would succeed with the same tools.

Honestly, spending $200/mo is insignificant to me. And I'm pretty happy to answer the question of "Why can this guy build this thing on a single VPS and you can't?" with "Well, because he's better than me".

I can be up in 15 mins on Heroku with a Rails+React web app. And in an hour have a thing. Or for a static no-login thing, faster with Netlify.

But it doesn't matter. Because I never made a product as nice as the one he made. If the outcome is I'm -$200/mo that is irrelevant to me. If the outcome is I'm +$50k/mo that is very relevant. So I'm going to optimize for how I can do the latter.

>
> We want you to be able to share videos with your family and friends wherever they are, but any music in your video, if it is allowed at all, may not be available in all countries of the world.

That part about "music in your video, if it is allowed at all" really feels like it's setting up a scenario where you just aren't allowed to have music in your FB videos at all.

To have those running as a security camera recording audio is legally perilous anyway. You’d have to inform car passengers or house guests that you have a microphone running if there’s any chance they might converse without you. The trouble you’d get into for surreptitious recording is a lot worse than a YouTube takedown.

And in the ambient music scenario the accidental recording of music isn’t a problem — it’s always been fine to record live music, radio, TV, etc. for your own enjoyment. It’s the non-accidental uploading to YouTube that’s the problem. Copyright doesn’t interfere with using it as a security camera, with or without audio.

Is he complaining much about the cost?

Maybe I read his conclusion differently, but he said "would be peanuts" about the cost and "The bigger issue is that on the revenue side there’s a big fat zero."

Seems to me he's acknowledging he's built a thing that requires generating revenue to support itself, but that he's neglected the revenue generation part of his project, rather than complaining too much about the price of running it?

I'm mostly agreeing with you (and tristanperry and TekMol), but I'm probably being more sympathetic and ascribing un-supported motivations for why he's happy enough building it this way and spending this much money to run it. (Probably because I've been there before myself, and sometimes that expensive hobby project has paid off, sometimes it hasn't. I've never spend so much I've seriously regretted any of my failures though...)

Copyright has become the ultimate tool of selective enforcement, because it's nearly impossible to avoid breaking the law.

It's not a problem the majority of the time, just like laws that allow police to detain you for no reason. It becomes a problem when someone decides to arbitrarily target you. There's countless stories about small businesses being targeted. The latest I know of is against streamers.

Since everybody is breaking the law music industry uses copyright mafia style. If they think they can get money out of you they send some goons to extort protection money from you, with huge leverage against your previous "crimes".

A country with rule of law should not have laws that are impossible to avoid breaking. Such laws are only useful for corruption, a way to enforce "justice" arbitrarily through bribes

It’s still amazing that there is an alternative. It must be tedious to copy such a bad CLI design over to podman. LXD CLI is far superior.
As a data point, we're using Redash (https://github.com/getredash/redash/), an alternative to Metabase, in a VM on Digital Ocean. It's a US$15 VM (2 cpu, 2GB ram) and seems to be fine. That's using a PostgreSQL instance running on the same VM, and nothing seems to be unhappy.

The graphs it generates are used both publicly (auto-updating):

https://sqlitebrowser.org/stats/

... and we have a bunch more private graphs and dashboards for metrics.

Everything is close to instant in responsiveness, apart from the "public" stats above. Those take some time to display purely on the browser side, as they feed way too much data to a browser for easy rendering. (will be fixed at some future point). ;)

Probably the only down side to Redash is a need to understand SQL. That can start out pretty simply though. :)
That’s only conversations that you’re a part of. Zero-party consent is illegal everywhere. E.g., if you invite people into your home, leave the room, and they continue talking, it’s a illegal to not inform them of the microphone.

Recording audio on a security camera in a club is certainly illegal, just as it would be in a restaurant. You can’t record the private conversations of your customers without informing them.

The problem you face is that decentralization per se brings very little benefit to the table and a lot of baggage that you need to evaluate honestly. If this pitch was to an existing organization like an enterprise the simplest question you are going to face and the hardest one for you to answer is simply "why should be take a risk on a (relatively) unknown and (certainly) more complicated solution when Slack gets the job done?" Unfortunately, I do not think there is a good answer to this question.

I really do not think that anyone is going to reject Matrix as a solution because ISIS used them, they will have a whole host of other perfectly legitimate reasons to reject Matrix. It only makes sense to take on the additional cost burdens of a decentralized solution if your organizational needs require it, otherwise it is a waste of time and you run the risk that your effort becomes one of those shitshow horror stories that turns into someone else's reason not to use a decentralized solution.
