Apart from networking. That’s an f*ing mess without systemd.
The whole point is that systemd replaces a large number of solutions to various system components and there’s alot to be said for pulling all that together into a consistent solution.
The competition to systemd can’t match its power, but there are good solutions for more limited scope situations like embedded.
Systemd is incredibly powerful and is very much a welcome part of software that I build. My system architectures depend heavily on systemd.
knowing what systemd is capable of is really required knowledge for software developers because it can both save you massive time and also enable the creation of systems that otherwise would have required you to write more code.
As a single founder company, I’d think that would be mostly profit, say 90%? That leaves about $400,000 per annum to pay for an ec2 instance and salary if working from the kitch table.
Imagine having a company 90% profitable and burning it up on the dream of venture capital backed growth.
I think logojoy was pulling in > $350,000 per month at the time.
If he’d sat on that as a single founder he’d be rolling in cash.
Imagine sitting on $350,000 a month for 3 years.... you’d never need to work again.
Instead, venture capital, offices, 40 staff, rebranding failure staff cuts, logojoy gone.
Nerds are bully targets. Asking such questions here is not going to give a response that is representative of the general community.
My guess is that many of the people here on HN got bullied.
My kids have been doing boxing since age 5 and are forbidden to stop taking classes. This is specifically so they can deliver hard lessons to the bullies who will appear in teenage years.
There's so much talk about broadband and its potential and so little actually delivered.
Show me the speed test. Everything else is just vaporware.
If your first hit is sufficiently large you never need another.
It's different in founding startups..., once you're lucky, twice you're good.
Exactly the sort of thing only truly rich people say.
Unless you want to pay for bare metal instances.
AWS Firecracker DOES run on Google Cloud, Azure and Digital Ocean.
I really had zero idea what was going on inside the machine and no-one to teach me.
Digital Ocean: 1 cent per GB
The really weird thing is this should be the absolute lead on all Digital Ocean marketing but they don't even mention it. It's their single biggest selling point.
