I skim Hacker News couple of times a day. I prefer reading books (on Kindle), ~30 mins to 1 hour every night before sleep and 20-30 mins every morning after waking up.

We are a 2-person consulting team which focuses on solving business problems with the right set of tools and architecture. We have worked on web analytics products, SaaS products, mobile apps, audio streaming web apps and real-estate search portals.

Here are some of the things we’re experienced in: Javascript, Node.js, Swift, Python, iOS, Android, AWS, Heroku, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis. We also have experience in frontend development using HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, LESS, Angular.js.

We are available full-time, and prefer working with funded startups and established companies, who have preference for good quality software design and implementation.

We offer weekly rates, and will work with you to create a plan based on your budget and timeline, before starting work on the project.

There are projects like FoldingCoin.net and CureCoin.net, which enable people to contribute processing power for solving computation-heavy problems, such as protein folding. These two projects are focussed on medical research and the tech is based on bitcoin blockchain.

To encourage people to contribute processing power / storage, these projects need to incentivise them which is where bitcoin comes in.

There is a startup called 21.co which is creating an embeddable bitcoin mining chip, which can be "embedded into an internet-connected device as a standalone chip or integrated into an existing chipset as a block of IP to generate a continuous stream of digital currency for use in a wide variety of applications." [1]

As mobile devices start having these embeddable mining chips, people would be able to "mine" coins like FoldingCoin and CureCoin on their devices, which then becomes like a network of coordinated "cloud servers" which are incentivised by these coins

Also, there are decentralised cloud storage projects like Storj.io (similar to Dropbox).

Not sure if going forward with Angular.js was the right choice, given Angular 2.0 had been announced, and will be different from Angular 1.0 (no backwards compatibility)

All C1 servers are busy, please retry in few minutes :)"

Interesting to see that they do not have technical specs on their store pages (e.g, http://store.apple.com/us/buy-watch/apple-watch-sport?produc...)

loumf, davismwfl: Thank you for your thoughts. We will try to follow a strategy along the guidelines that you have suggested. As you have said, we are initially going to target companies where we have an existing network, and take it on from there.
