Another option as a "PG backed by S3" is neon.tech

Last year I bought a copy of Steep for my son (he was 7). First day in our Christmas vacation, he thought he could to a 360, just like in the video game, he landed on his nose. We stayed for a week in the resort watching snowboard on youtube. :)

Do you think you are acomplishing more because of this service?

I think they should start with a lower fee and charge x more every time the user fails to complete a task, on time. People need incentive to finish something. Not sure if someone emailing you is enough

You might be logged in on your iPhone with a different user than your browser. That's what happened to me. When I changed to the same login as my phone. They even know where I parked my car and for how long.

I might be wrong. But I think the reason they created Atlas was to give Stripe access to non supported countries. They will do all the work with incorporation, opening bank account, etc. And you will operate your business from the US bank account. After your business has a credit history you can even have credit cards.

You will probably need an accountant in Brazil to see how you declare your business entity in the US and also an accountant in the US to declare you US taxes.

My guess, he is talking about having 2 incomes instead of only 1.

Hey Jason congrats on your product. Really liked your writing style. Very funny and informative. Nice job.

Do you worry about amazon releasing something to analyse the logs and killing your business? They just released Amazon QuickSight in beta and I think you will probably be able to import logs from their services. Of course the user will have to create the reports themselves but I guess your audience is tech savvy.

react-cli is pretty good

I also share your frustration.

I am learning react. A few weeks ago I wrote a small app and based my work from a starterkit with a few thousand stars on github. I learned a lot from this app and the starterkit.

This week I decided to use what I learned at work, writing a small app that will be used only internally. When I cloned the same project at least 15-20% of the project was different.

Not just is a pain to set up a project but it's also changing very fast.

Most of the logic can be the same. But the UI is different. For the web it uses html elements and for native uses native ios/android elements. Even android and ios are different. That's the biggest advantage if compared to Adobe Cordova. A lot more performant

You are also saving in not having someone maintaining and making sure the server is always online. Even if it was the same price, not having to worry about the server is a big plus

I don't use apex. I use serverless. but it's probably the same idea. All the work of transpiling, minifing, creating lambdas, api gateway, aws resources, stages etc... are done automatically from the command line. You don't need to compile/transpile your code, create a zip, upload to s3, create a lambda import the zip from s3, create the endpoint, connect to the lambda, create the api gateway template, etc... And do this every time you change something in your code. It gets frustrating really fast when doing it manually.

Google, Facebook, twitter .... Are all doing this in their backend. If you are worried about it. Don't use their services.

The problem I see here is that now they are giving this data to spammers.
