Well, I was thinking of saving the booking slots presented to the customers for data purposes. Also, I was thinking that it might help to store the presented slots in case someone else books it before the person decides to reserve. This way eliminating the option in realtime might be easier and without having to recalculate all the remaining available slots again? But maybe there is a better solution to this....

I am trying to build a SAAS service for booking services. One of the engineering issues I ask myself is if the following will become an issue in the future: do I save all the options of slots available I show each customer in the database or do I just calculate the slots virtually and save only the confirmed bookings?

Have you tried Dokku? Very similar to Heroku. I run it on a DO server without any issues.

For myself I would prefer a solution were I would still die but can retain all my functions until that day (mental performance, muscle mass, strong bones, bodily functions, etc).

It would be great if Google drive wouldn't use up my MacBook's battery so fast. All the time my cpu usage is at 100% when using Google Backup and sync. Something that other competitors have managed to do better than Google. Using dropbox at the moment.

Dr. Walker has actually stated that very few people can operate with 5 hours of sleep due to genetics. Most of us need between 7 to 9 hours of sleep.

Most people just act irrational and maybe can't really see how much you actually contribute to the organization. We humans are really biased when it comes to choices.

I would read these two books:

How to Win Friends and Influence People

Thinking Fast and Slow

Thanks for the great tip. I will email you when I have the draft post ready!

Why don't you try out Meteor? I found it really easy to work with. You could probably go through the whole book tutorial (discovermeteor.com) in 20 hours. If you don't end up using it on production; it might help you with faster prototyping.
