Doesn’t that enable hostile takeover of land? If I own a school or restaurant, and Apple wants to replace it with a store, they can place a bid such that I can no longer afford the taxes and am forced to sell to them.
Wouldn’t such a system just exacerbate business and the wealthy being able to snatch up land?
It depends on the person. In my country it is popular for the poor to sell flowers or snacks at stoplights, and I usually always buy flowers. But in the US it seems most at stoplights are bumming for drugs or alcohol.
That said, I think donating is something that helps you more than them. Generosity makes you feel good, and it lightens your mind.
CloudFlare. They log unique hits for free, which is enough for me to calculate my conversion rate and see the result of my marketing efforts. In over a decade of working with SaaS companies I’ve never once seen concrete action taken as a result of traffic logs, despite countless hours spent analyzing it.
I scan everything with my phone and store in iCloud. I shred everything except what must be kept as paper originals (a few government documents). I stick this all into a single folder, and this folder is small since there are few documents that must be kept as paper originals.
It’s 2021, there’s no reason to have a filing cabinet of paper documents.
Here’s my latest browser issue that drove me crazy: In Safari the TextMetrics.actualBoundingBoxRight returned from CanvasRenderingContext2D.measureText() includes dangling spaces, and Chrome does not. So you’ll get different text measurements if the text has a space on the end, which broke my app’s logic of rendering multiline rich text in Chrome. Ugh.
Wow that’s a lot of experience! I think with a bit of formatting and focus your resume will look even better. As others mentioned, clean-up the formatting (consider a two-column layout). Pick the three most impressive accomplishments for each job - avoid the long lists so it’s easier to scan.

I would listen to your users, and think about your customer acquisition channels. Unless you rely heavily on SEO for customer acquisition, I doubt it’s going to be an issue. People are still going to call Facebook “Facebook”. Nobody calls Google “Alphabet”.
The purpose of cryptocurrency is peer-to-peer transactions. No central bank, no retail banks, no payment processors, no KYC, no gatekeeping.
A few days ago there was a thread about Stripe locking a business’ account for no reason, with no support, grinding their entire business to a halt. That’s not the future of cryptocurrency I want.
Consider just signing up for Shopify and being done with it. What are the custom features? It’s likely there are already Shopify plug-ins/services for this.
Writers do measure productivity by pages written… sure, they may not write a best seller, but there’s a date they start writing and a date the book is published and the book has a word count.
I agree though that lines of code or number of pages doesn’t have much of a relationship to revenue.
Launching to the public first and warm leads second is backwards.
You should put it in front of some of your warm leads immediately. In my experience, whatever you’ve made will need to be changed (probably significantly) after you get feedback from actual customers using it.
Put something in front of real customers now, iterate based on their feedback, and repeat. Launch to the public when you have happy customers.
A single VPS server with a GitHub action that builds and syncs code to the server using Git, with a bash one-liner to restart the server. Properly configured this can serve millions of requests.
A cron job which saves a copy of the DB to S3.
That’s it.
If you’re focused on anything more with no employees you’re probably wasting your time.
