This is why I freaking love the movie Blade Runner 2049. It resonated with me tremendously besides being a great movie. Give it a shot if you have not!
I am in the same boat. Had so many tries and like many others, all of them failed. I had some hard time during COVID as well, so I decided to rethink my path.
I was living in a racist place where I was discriminated, I tried my best to keep the boat afloat, but eventually burned myself and the boat.
Now I took a step back, moved to a new place, started learning a new language cause it is fun. I am basically living a simple life and working on recovering myself and (hopefully) getting ready for when the next opportunity comes in.
What I think is a bit different is that many people has lost hope completely, I still have some hope that life will give you another chance, I just need to be ready.
Seems like the privilege of raising a lot of money without having a product, revenue, or market fit can be a curse as well. They could have figured it sooner with less money in hand.
I am not that familiar with theses new sheet like apps. Although I like them because I hate sheets/excel. But can anyone point out the main focus difference between this and Airtable?
Jelastic PaaS did this a long time ago, and in much better form. It is possible to automatically scale your apps horizontally or vertically without any additional configs.
I really don't understand why it is not that popular, It is the smoothest cloud experience I had compared to any other PaaS I tested.
I've been using WSL1 for a long time now and I am very happy with it.
The way I use it is to have all my files and project on windows FS and I code using windows software (VSCode, Eclipse) but when I build and test, I use WSL1, and I didn't feel that the performance was that bad since I have an SSD and I don't mind waiting for few more minutes to rebuild a project.
But the most important thing for me was that I didn't care about managing another file system. All my files are still on windows where I used to keep them, file sync and backups are working as expected, and I easily browse and edit these files on the Windows side.
For docker, I installed docker on Windows and hooked Docker CLI on WSL1 to it using some configurations. and I was happy with it.
The question is, for the way I use WSL1, will WSL2 be an improvement or a drawback for me? and should someone like me switch to WSL2?
I have a smart home startup running in the middle east, and we want to develop the exact same idea in the future. The only difference is the cloud part.
People here (and I assume many other countries) hate the cloud, they want everything running locally and with a minimum subscription. So we've been brainstorming a solution similar to camect[1] that handles everything locally. We still have a long time to reach that since the market here is at least 5 years late that USA.
Do you consider building this kind of device in the future?
I agree with you, I even think that Arabic speakers are the best at understanding foreigners speech.
As he pointed, you might tell your girlfriend this is a gift from your dog (كلب) instead of heart (قلب), but I'm sure that if she is a native speaker, she'll understand correctly.
I've seen the same mistakes happen in other languages, but the native speaker usually miss the meaning.
I think this relates to the fact that Arabic spoken language has a vast number is unique dialects, and they mostly understand each others dialects, unlike other languages that differs between dialects mostly in spelling sounds.
