1. You don't need 20k to register an LLC or a corporation, but it's a good idea if you begin to collect PII data.

2. You don't need a complex landing page. Just something to explain your product, and collect an email. Use open source landing page templates.

3. Having software engineer friends does not automatically guarantee you anything. Move to an area where you can attend startup oriented events so you can meet founders and investors. They are the people that will teach you things and influence your success the most.

A good friend of mine told me that he developed shortness of breath and palpitations after his first shot, and had to spend 8 hours in the ER.

While I do acknowledge that there is a lot of misinformation on the topic out there, it was really weird to see an actual real person you know suffer from a side effect of a shot. I started to think that things aren't as simple as they seem to be advertised...

Laughed at the last paragraph, it's so true. Nobody will be able to even get on the roads, because without traffic lights and towing services they'll get clogged up very quickly (in just a few days), people will be abandoning their cars right on the road.

Can you post a link to your book (or book drafts), if you have it yet? I'd be interested to check it out.

Well, when you are able to pull in labor, food and other supplies from the unaffected areas, it's a much different scenario.

In the event where the entire US goes into the blackout for 2 weeks, things will be different. Sure, maybe not an apocalyptic anarchy on the streets, but there will be unrest. Because most people don't have extensive food and water reserves at the place of their residence.

The larger point I was trying to make is that things will be getting exponentially worse as time goes on, and the point of no return will be hit eventually, if we are not able to address the issue quickly.

Well, the idea is that most people will run out of basic supplies 2 weeks into the blackout, which will force everyone to turn to violence to survive. I agree that 2 days is not a big deal.

In a dying society like that however, it will be almost impossible to allocate labor to fix issues that caused the blackout, because as time goes on, violence on the streets increases. Weeks on end without food, water, heat, sanitation, order on the streets, weeks without ability to call or text anyone, people's trust into the government disappears, as does the trust into the currency of the country.

In a scenario like that, society eventually hits the point of no return.

This feels like it's a common thing in large enterprisey companies. Execs out of touch with technical teams, always pushing for more for less.

Lesson to build your services with Docker and Terraform. In this setup you can spin up a working clone of a decently sized stack in a different cloud provider in under an hour.

Don't lock yourself in.

But what's a good alternative then? What if the internet connection has recovered? And you were at the, for example, 4 minute retry loop. Would you just make your users stare at a spinning loader for 8 minutes?

Uhm, isn't it too simple for $5/month per user?

True. Having children is the most meaningful thing anyone can do in their life.

Agreed. Here's Nikola Tesla's autobiography book called "My Inventions" https://www.kevinsworkbench.com/teslasautobiography/my_early...

That's like 6-7 hours of sleep (below recommended normal). Do you take naps during day time?

Hmm, wondering when do you go to sleep if you wake up at 6? 9? That kind of sucks.

For those interested to learn more about Ivermectin, watch JRE#1671 podcast episode. Lots of interesting information covered about the drug by 2 biologists. It may change your views on this for the better, or the worse.

Time to switch to Graphene OS my man.

Nailed it. It was the intention all along. Funny how everyone just pretends that it's not what it is.

Are you kidding me?

Hmm, thanks!

How does one start a semiconductor manufacturing company?
