Re:Serverless to Monolith – Should Serverless Lovers Be Worried? on Sunday July 02, 2023 @12:40AM (#36558275)

When it comes to complex flows with many branches serverless really shines. It makes it easier to manage such complexity. For simpler flows serverless might just be an overkill.

In short, there is a place for both.

In this video I explain more of what wufwuf is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9fmNsQvWAk. Also sign up is just username and password. No email, phone or additional details required. Finally the link takes you to a betting pool of YC related events. Like, how many companies will YC accept? You don't need money to participate.

You know this is exactly how multi-billion companies are started. Such niches that seem so hyper focused that no one bothers to pay attention and before you know it. Boom! You are everywhere.

This product is so hyper focused! I love it.

Actually age has little to do with this. If you join Tiktok you will see creators of all ages. Your zero desire is more of your personal taste, based on your individuality rather than your age.

Yup, you got it. Tiktok is not digital crack. It is digital cocaine. The purest form.(Assuming the purest form is the best).

Even if they do, they do not care. The user only cares about what the app can do for them.

I do not think they are the same. People addicted to social media can be locked in a room for a week, without social media, and show no adverse withdrawal symptoms. If you try the same to people addicted to drugs, they might die.

The engagement in Tiktok is part of what makes it addictive. You post a video and Tiktok gets it in front of people who will engage with it(in many different ways). Then your brain releases dopamine. And the cycle of continues. Which makes me wonder, if someone created a wearable hardware device. Then, when you press a button it tells your brain to produce dopamine. Will this device be made illegal? Because that is exactly what cocaine does to your brain.

Startup founder here and I just want to say that I have gotten so much value from YC, without even getting in. From their videos, articles e.t.c. Even from content from YC affiliated people like PG's essays, Michael Seibel, Garry Tan and Justin Kan videos, just to mention a few.I am not American and where I come from, there aren't many people who have done startups and can give you lessons from...

Ask HN: When do I need segment.io for analytics?

Hi, I am new to analytics(apart from GA) and I understand the importance of a tool like MIxpanel and why I might need it. But I am still wondering if I need segment.io for an early stage web app? And If I do need it, why?
