mistakes will always be made at all stages, imo the key differentiator is how quickly they course correct and iterate

many such cases. imo it's a skill issue but understand the thought process and why it's so prevalent

good article, enjoyed the little storytelling even if a bit distracting. i think most folks on here are going to be super critical about them starting on a NoSQL database in the first place when it was very likely that relational would have been the way to go from the start, but sometimes you just need to get something off the ground and Firestore can be the fastest to do so (not recommending fwiw). we were also one of those “thousands” of startups that started with it and migrated off after a few years too - so might be a bit biased there - but it all worked out in the end

depends on the stage of the company - but could be a way to attract the talent that they are looking for

Wonder if people will see giving a kid an ipad the same as we see giving a kid a book in a few years with advancements in VR/AR

Was wondering the same thing, if it's a short term contract or pay as you go model I'd find it extremely useful, especially since it works with startup credits

TBH i found the nat.css thing to be funny. Interesting to see so many tools like this building on top of AWS, wonder what AWS thinks about it given their most recent earnings report

True, nothing on AWS seems cheap these days :(

What's the onboarding process like and how intrusive is it to my AWS account?

Seems like a waste of time, more of a nice to have/tip of the cap to yud

Are there any commitments for the amount of time I use the service? Would I be able to use it for a few months, weeks, or days without a longterm contract?

That's sweet, will send over an email shortly!

Love the idea, does this work for startups on credits? I work with a lot of AI startups on credits and would be happy to intro if that's the case
