Well then, nice to meet a fellow Nigerian :) Ebola is a recent thing AFAIK, so it would make sense that no one was freaking out about it when you were a kid.

To be fair, it does sound like you were in rural Nigeria, so my Malaria experience is likely different from yours

I dont know what part of Africa you grew up in, but growing up in Nigeria, no one was scared of Malaria.

It is treated pretty much the same way Americans treat getting the Flu

I also live in NJ..In my experience, 3+ bedroom houses here will have at least 2 bathrooms, unless they were built before the 80s.

I have a Chevy Bolt and a Model 3 in my household. Of course I much prefer to drive the Model 3, but the Chevy bolt is also all electric , goes about 240 miles on a single charge and costs about $20k less than the Model 3. Why more people don't get a Chevy Bolt, is a mystery to me.

how are you learning though? Who you play against is pretty important. You need to try and play against the strongest players you can find. Dont be afraid of losing to them

What did you do to turn things around though?

These are somewhat irrelevant questions... one thing that is almost guaranteed is that your original idea will change, and all your loft projections will not come to pass.

Does each node hold a full BGP routing table? That could be a problem as the number of nodes increases

Cheaper still, would be to get a new name that has an available .com

When you have W2 employees, there are additional taxes you have to pay, which you don't have to worry about if they are 1099. At a certain size, you are also mandated to provide Health Care benefits etc

The price does not have to be so high..IF stuff is not working out, you can just quit and try something else. There is nothing heroic or romantic about living in poverty. Joining the workforce or running a so called lifestyle business that makes actual money is not a bad thing.

All this talk of sacrifice and being gods tells me you need to step outside your bubble. You are trying to start a company, not solve World hunger.

The question may have been better phrased as "How unreliable is the internet" . TCP and UDP packets will be dropped at just about the same rate across any network, the only difference is that TCP keeps track, and re-sends any packets that did not arrive.

Each protocol has its own place (and uses)...

Might make more sense as "A TCP Packet walks into a bar" , since TCP supports retransmissions
