It seemed crazy to me that none of the personal newsletter services out there let you just write the filter prompt yourself, so I built this. I think its much simpler and more flexible. Feedback welcome!
Is amazon web services not a service people pay for? People are currently buying computation (a service) with crypto. I spend ETH to deploy and execute code, in the exact same way I pay USD to AWS to deploy and execute my code.

That service is the point of the whole thing. The fees go to stakers who *execute your computation for you and ensure the integrity of the results*. ETH is analogous to credits on AWS. It's simply an execution environment with different properties from AWS.
Thanks! What would you suggest instead of a global/lazy static in this situation though? I recall struggling to pass some dynamically allocated structure into the hyper service instantiation.
Thanks for the info! I definitely did not know all of that :). I do work at a crypto exchange, but on the custody/stablecoin side, not the exchange team.
Can you elaborate a little on the "pinging" process to extract information? Sounds interesting
