Each services need to communicate with each other. And, 100 things can go wrong in that and lot of effort and fail-safe mechanisms has to be put in order for it to scale. Having said that there are lots of solutions out there but does require good amount of understanding and work

Re:Ask HN: Which Go web framework should i use in 2016? on Wednesday October 26, 2016 @01:35PM (#12798576)
First question I would ask is do you really need a web framework? With Go, the way language is built or designed - you don't need crazy frameworks. Having said that I do use gorilla package a lot to re-use some of the common middlewares and packages which wouldn't make sense to re-write. But, for API endpoints and all that I am directly using Go.
Nice! Lately I have started doing Go and was wondering about it. I am going to try it.
Would do farming, at the end world needs to eat

I was wondering what's the most common and frequently bought product in your age group?
For my project, I wanted to have an automated and easy code to deployment setup, so here's what I have it working Bitbucket -> Private Docker Repository -> Tutum (https://www.tutum.co/) - Live app

It's working pretty well. Once you check in your code, docker repository hooked to bitbucket will build the docker image and then you can start deployment from Tutum with one click.

Maybe a concept of badges that you unlock at various stages of your quitting process might make it interesting and once user completes the process can share that final stage!! So, in a nutshell, basic forum to post messages and a way to get motivation for the user should work!
Re:Ask HN: Does anyone feel Product Hunt drifted away? on Thursday May 28, 2015 @12:29PM (#9619255)
I totally agree, trying to be a very closed community never helps!! Now, they even shut down submission for users with no recommendation from one of their elite members!!

Good for you that you don't have to work with him now!! NO it's not common.

Re:Tell HN: LinkedIn's API will be restricted next week on Friday May 08, 2015 @02:10PM (#9513227)
That's why I hate working with these so-called APIs, they release it then cut it down or stop it. Never rely on these APIs to build anything significant
Thanks

I recommend using the white background for your own website. Looks darker with black text!
Re:Getting initial traction on Tuesday April 14, 2015 @01:48PM (#9376004)
If they select your product! ProductHunt is still very closed community according to me. And, I think they seem very biased towards their selected members
I generally use storyboard for few initial view controllers. After that, I either use separate nibs or code it. Storyboard can become messy and hard to navigate around if you put lot of views in it. Even though, you can zoom in and out, still it's messy. Also, it really depends on what you are trying to do. There will be scenarios where using nib or storyboard won't just cut it.
