Empire Flippers is a true global-remote company with travel in our DNA and employees scattered across 5 continents and all sorts of countries. Since I joined 6 years ago, I've personally been to India, the US, Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, Mexico, the Philippines, China, Japan, Thailand, the UAE, all while working remotely and coding our Ruby on Rails + React app. More about us here: https://empireflippers.com/about-us
Though not as well known in the Hacker News / venture-backed startups sphere, Empire Flippers is widely considered the #1 marketplace for buying and selling online businesses in the 5 to 8 figure USD range.
Think of businesses like --- that recipe site you landed on as the first result when you googled "best chicken tikka masala recipe". Or the Amazon FBA seller whose product you purchased when shopping for "Widget XYZ" (with Amazon FBA, these ecommerce businesses never touch inventory and so it's a fully online business).
Turns out these type of businesses may be earning 10s of thousands of dollars per month in profit (or more!) and when the (often first time) founder is ready to sell, Empire Flippers is the #1 place to do it safely, securely and at a fair market price.
Before I joined Empire Flippers I only had a peripheral understanding of this space, but now that I've been steeped in this industry I can say that this "mini M&A" world is just as exciting as the high-flying unicorns (and decacorns) that we read about daily on Hacker News.
The company is hiring for a few different positions (both technical & non-technical), all of which can be found here: https://empireflippers.com/careers
But in particular, I'm hiring a Ruby on Rails developer to help me continue to build out new features in our Platform, both for customers and to help run our (very extensive) internal operations of vetting incoming businesses, facilitating their sale, and migrating them to the new owner after they've been purchased.
This just happened to me after 1.5 years of usage of my Pixel 5A.
Luckily Google extended the usual 1-year warranty to be 2-years to give free replacements (which I took advantage of and in fact was given a free upgrade to a 6A)... But be prepared for your phone to die out of nowhere.
Looks like PE and venture-backed tech have a bad rep these days given how cynical the comment section is...
It seems the core problem at hand attempting to be solved is baby boomer small business owners retiring and having no one to buy their business (or pass down to who actually wants to run it)...
That seems like a worthy problem to tackle. Definitely will keep an eye on this company over the years to see if the model pans out or not.
For anyone who likes spreadsheets but wishes the boring data input bits were a little more automated, check out: https://www.tillerhq.com
Imagine a Google sheet where 1 tab pulls in all your transactions from each of your banks / credit cards / investment accounts and the other tabs are... Whatever you can imagine.
I am a huge fan, after I graduated from mint.com I've never looked back after finding Tiller.
You can customize to your hearts content (it's Google Sheets, after all), plus they have handy template sheets to get started with.
I personally have sheets to track my monthly spending (by category), my networth, my checking account balance vs sum of all credit card bills, my progress on credit card signup bonus minimum spend challenges are more.
Presumably if your site is behind Cloudflare then this strategy won't work, right? Since the IP addresses that Security Trails sees are just of Cloudflare rather than your actual Heroku IPs...?
Or is it possible in the Cloudflare dashboard there is somewhere to see your Heroku server's IP address?
You've obviously got a strong career in Security in the future. Have you looked at any Crypto projects? Seems like there are some massive bounties on https://immunefi.com and similar sites.
One thing that wasn't immediately clear from the blog posts --- does Cloudflare's solution allow configuration to also send emails from the custom domain email address?
In GMail (and using Google Domains to host my DNS) I've configured this by inputting various settings as per the guide here:
The key relevant step is: "For school or work accounts, enter the SMTP server (for example, smtp.gmail.com or smtp.yourschool.edu) and the username and password on that account."
Wouldn't it be elevating your head, rather than your legs? Most sources I've seen[1] that discuss inclining your bed have your head be higher up than your legs.

China does this to some degree. Small businesses are free to transact without much intervention but very large companies get influenced/controlled by the small government elite in the Chinese Communist Party.

When researching hedge fund jobs I had heard of the Susquehanna International Group (Jeff Yass’s firm), but never knew their story until reading this article.
In addition to trading, SIG now is a major venture capital investor. They put some of the first money into ByteDance (TikTok parent company), and parlayed a few million dollar investment into a stake worth billions.
Yass, a libertarian, just got a new futures contract approved that is based on USA tax rates. As a way for people and firms to potentially hedge on Joe Biden (or a future president’s) potential tax increases.
Lots more interesting stuff in this detailed, well-written history.

If the original charge underwent currency conversion, the refunded amount is converted back using the same process. There are no fees to refund a charge, but the fees from the original charge are not returned.
