I like to write code and talk about it. I write Mobile applications since it was not trendy and like to fall into low level programming on embedded systems.

Nowadays I work at Google making Android the best OS for Enterprises.

Walter Tevis - Mockingbird (I’m not sure how many times)

Is from the 80s but re-reading lately with everything that is going on with AI it sounds more real than ever.

This seems the natural evolution of what used to be:

1. A laptop with the development environment (DOS or Windows) kept in a box to use for updates / fixes

2. A VM on a NAS to use when a firmware in maintenance needs a fix

With more embedded tooling available on Linux, a docker image becames a natural choice.

I’m not sure that your customer exists.

If someone wanted to “invest in crypto”, they have already done it by now and probably thinking to get more than a single digit percentage return[0].

You are offering a 4%-7% return that is only slightly higher than the promotional interest by fintechs[1] (where the money, up to a value, is guaranteed by the government).
