Hi Peter! We’re are waiting for my wife’s parents to get an interview scheduled at the Spanish embassy so they can get a green card. They are here in the US as tourists. We are close to the end of the process, but we’d like to keep them in the US if we can and just do the interview here. Is it possible?

I feel like this must exist and I just haven’t found it, but I’d love a tool that can automate seeding a staging/local db from production.

It would need live in a vpc to access the prod db, but then expose itself to access slices of anonymized data that can be used to restore external dbs.

Essentially a configurable pgdump that includes the ability to anonymize personal info, take recent slices of data, and serve the data all in a way that still protects direct access to the original data.

Yep, this is an effort to make it easier for the government. By pre-approving contractors, they have fewer people they have to deal with. To be clear, anyone can become a prime contractor I.e. get access. It can just be pretty confusing and opportunities to apply for certain contracts can be as long as 10 years apart.

I think this is overly cynical. It's complex and wants to be transparent, but to be honest it's hard.

I believe all the DARPA opps will be in sam.gov, in which case the will be in the public version of Govly. If we're wrong here we'll definitely look into specific DARPA opps.

Looking into SBIR now...

Once we have a better understanding of our pricing we will definitely do this.

Though I can tell you that we have 0 marketing so at least anecdotally we're are not using your data

Thanks for pointing this out. This is not good and we'll make it better. I'm pretty sure it was a stock policy we threw up just to get going.

Not directly. Carahsoft actually pays for some of our customers' subscriptions to differentiate themselves from other distributors.

Trade weapons for cat7 cables and there are similarities :)
