Nice work with your jobs page.

Just like “Who is hiring” thread, a “Looking for co-founder” thread every quarter or 6 months might be helpful to the community? That can help start the conversation which is the first step towards finding the right co-founder. You can also get a good idea about a person by looking at their submission/comment history on HN.

From your token suggestion, how about solution using blockchain?

I feel naive bayes works pretty well with such text classification tasks. You might want to give it a try.

You can try couchbase lite as well

Crashlytics is now bundled with Fabric suit from Twitter. Its working well for us. I missed the custom logging feature in the Analytics, but that would evolve with time I guess.

The truth is that the good developers aren't making 100x less in most of the developed countries. Most of the good developers I know in India are earning in 25-40K range with lots of tax benefits. Expenses are less than 10K even if you live a good lifestyle.

Anyone uses MKNetworkKit? I use MKNetworkKit in most of my small projects which has a much simpler API and works well.

My opinion. I am a DO user and I don't think you can use it for production application. Casual hosting is fine.

For production servers, deterministic backups are very important. DO does not provide that. I faced a lot of issues when transitioning my server from non-backup to backup mode. To do that, you need to take a snapshot(server shutdown is required for this)of server. Then, you need to destroy it to get the same ip. There is a chance that your ip may go to someone else & any services that are dependent on ip may need changes. I was lucky to loose the ip for a while & get it back after some trial & error.

Also, you don't have any control on the backup. It is taken by the system and is supposed to be anywhere between 2-3 days.

Nice. Any plans on using this data to extract some more insights?
