You are in the wrong PR wise probably. Generally I think providing a way to opt out has become the path many projects take.

Anyway, their main beef appears that you are not properly anonymizing the telemetry.

It’s Apple.

Always fun to see a new UAV startup. Did you use an open source autopilot (like ardupilot, PX4, Paparazzi, etc) or build something internally?

The microservices knowledge is the interesting stuff and transfers to the more complex hard to maintain things people build elsewhere. The infra stuff is generally toil you can figure out if you must. Keep at it or look for places using better infrastructure abstractions. (ok ok, I worked on CF so biased but feel your pain)

I think long term the java spring stuff will shoe horn you more than CF stuff but there’s plenty of work there.

Everyone wants a scapegoat and easy answers where there are none. That said SF government is provably corrupt (and every couple years someone goes down) but the Chesa recall is a side show.

Wait until they find out how many different teams and systems and plans they have to try and do real software subscriptions. Anyone who’s worked on billing stuff for software knows there won’t be anything rapid about this transition.

Trust your management skills and your people and you will be fine.

Sure, lots of engineering needs, but I work with some software PMs in the industry. Reach out.

Typical credit card transactions fees range from 1.5-3.5 percent so the 2 percent is not a terrible deal and businesses usually just eat it in retail and work it into the prices.

Usually there is language in the contract with the processor agreement that prevents businesses from charging different prices for credit card vs non credit card buyers.

I mean, “don’t leave stuff in your car” is a pretty basic tenant of parking on the street in any big city… but yeah, it’s kinda as described and has been for at least a decade or more.

Makes sense.

I don’t agree with this. Once it starts to click a bit, if you enjoy it, it’s not hard to make progress. Build things that excite you and keep at it. Don’t just study for the sake of studying - create things you want to use. Take the leap before you think you’re ready (waiting was my mistake) and apply for things that might be challenging or you feel you’re under qualified for.
