My perspective on consciousness is not as a single function unique to humans, but as a process of learning that emerges from coherent interaction at all scales of observers. I think the reason humans have developed the kind of consciousness we generally observe is due to our slow development combined with the physical architecture to support the processing and growth. While many animals learn to master their mechanics and survival early, humans are slow and take time to develop. I often hear people argue that humans are incredible at learning, but I’d argue it being the opposite. We are terrible at learning, and it is what enables us to have the time to observe and learn from coherent information at scales inaccessible to other observers.

I align with your thinking.

I find the question of the existence of god a nonquestion. Invented looking for an answer in a space without one.

I think it stems from our incredible ability to learn, and struggle to unlearn.

However, I think we are on the verge of having an understanding of the universe in which learning will be seen as a fundamental part of physical reality.

Where gods are to the people who have them as real as they think they are. Only that they are real in the space of their minds, and no where else.

Given this, I think we’ll soon see the gap between our incoherent internal reality and coherent external reality narrow.

Yesh. Will do that as well.

It looked like they were using the Prusa I3 MK3S.

Everything depends on configuration. Redis can be very durable/reliable if configured accordingly.

Premature optimization or not. We care about the experience and want it to be as good as possible. /R

Thanks. Would be happy really if we got it working with CloudFlare! /R

I actually looked at Fastly just a few days ago. Unfortunately their custom SSL fees are a bit high. But seems really nice and will definitely do a write-up if we try them.

Pingdom's response time report is really nice. We also used LoadImpact to test it against "flash mobs" :)

I wish we could use CloudFront. Unfortunately they charge a bit for custom SSL ($600/zone/mo). Not that fun for a startup. Are you also using that? /R

What is your experience? :) What CDN are you using for your startup today? /Robin

OP here.

Point taken!

Payment processing, social login and welcome/confirmation emails is on top of our list!

The "launching soon" page is thought as a nice 1st step for people that haven't launched their app yet but still want to get users into UserApp. But we're not going to become like another LaunchRock, so no need to worry :)
