The coding part of building a SaaS is the easier one. Get a job and build on the side

Nope, we just decided to migrate to S3

I've integrated it into two projects. Users loved it.

Back in 2006 my blog got me a girlfriend. I think exposure in any way is beneficial.

I don't, they'd probably rather sell what is left.

2 things to add:

- I'd decouple the database writes with a message queue.

- Make sure that table is partitioned if you haven't. TimescaleDB's hyper tables are a good compromise here if you are already using Postgres..

A lot of things but not really much at the same time

Could you reduce to 24 hrs per week? That would be 3 full days out of 7.

That sounds like a wonderful lifestyle!

Maybe something more basic. Like GOTO's

Maybe a proper debugger?

Redshift COPY from s3 is also affected.

I have one running with a ~5TB big unpartitioned table. Adding ~9M rows per day, with significant read load via 2 replicas. Works just fine on a 32 GB memory RDS instance. There is another table half the amount of rows and I join the two 1000s of times a day.

Took a bit of fiddling around to have things run stable. Currently migrating to Redshift, which has stellar performance but comes with its own problems.

Had this happen to me as a client on Upwork.

Interviewed some Italian guy, but when the job started a Russian guy with Asian roots was on the cam.

Somehow I understand his situation, but nevertheless ended the call after one minute.

Some CTO guy who I work with does this with the password for internal docs. He thinks he is 1337.

How long will it take, until someone gains access? I consider this an intentional security leak.

I also have heard of such a story. A friend of mine did something similar a long time ago.

Someone posted malicious stuff on his website, which showed up when googling my friends name. This costed him quite some business.

He knew the email address of the website owner, and the provider where the website was hosted. So he registered the same email address under a different free email hosting provider. Then he sent the website hoster an e-mail where he told them about a new email address and if they could change it. With that he could reset the password and delete the website.
