Look at your favorite VC’s websites and they usually list their portfolio companies. Find some companies that interest you.

Then go to the company’s website and look for postings or email them and tell them you're interested.

You have to test restoration as part of SOC 2, so most companies with real customers do it at least once a year.

Just be careful of inventions assignments. If you live in the US you probably signed paperwork that says anything you invent or create is property of the company you work for.

If you signed one of these and hack on the side… successful business could be owned by your previous company.

You can always ask that they release the IP which requires the lawyers to officially sign it over to you.

Before you quit your job make sure you own it.

Honestly what you need:

vulnerability scanning of your images.

Fargate

RDS

Agreed. I did the same thing and immediately closed the tab

ELB with WAF -> Fargate -> RDS

Why not use a single Fargate task?

Alpine is also based on MUSCL rather than glibc which generally has fewer well known CVEs which helps from a security standpoint.

How many total shares have been issued?

What’s the fully diluted number?

How many shares am I getting?

Those are the important questions.

Assume you get diluted for every fund raise.

Is there a “who wants to be hired” for UI/UX designers? We have been looking for a good contract designer.

You’re in good company James Hetfield plays this way too!

Systems Engineer can also mean a presales role as well. The technical counter part to a sales rep.

Here’s what you do. Come up with an MVP that does one very common workflow for your target market. Choose any market you’re familiar with.

The MVP workflow needs to be good enough that cold outreach would respond. “Oh I do that in my day job, I’ll take a look”

Then demo to them.

They will tell you why they can’t or won’t buy. They will say it needs X or Y or they will ask questions, “can you integrate with Google sheets?” You’ll probably do 50 of these and most won’t buy… but they will tell you either directly or indirectly why not. Now focus on removing the road blocks.

Just keep implementing features until the questions people have are already answered in the demo. People stop asking about features and start asking about pricing.

That’s the path I’ve taken and seems to work well.

You claim it as IP that is previously developed when you start the new job or you submit it to your current employer and get an IP exclusion.

I’ve done both with no issues.

I just add an extra link to the watch band and slide it up my arm a little bit when coding.

There are two types of serverless that most people reference. Serverless functions (e.g. AWS Lambda) and serverless managed platforms (e.g. AWS ECS Fargate)

Serverless functions are great if you have a lot of small services that need to be "on standby at all times".

For example if you have 5000 separate services, it doesn't makes sense to have them all running all the time if 4,000 of them have very low traffic. So one of the main benefits is that you get the ability to "increase your library of services at a very low cost". Serverless also really shines with quick stateless actions.

However, converting an app to all serverless is a huge task and for most apps it doesn't make sense.

Two major drawbacks:

1) You're bound to only the language versions that are currently supported.

2) You're writing code specifically for the platform so without a heavy lift you're "locked in"

If the goal is to go serverless and get rid of the server management, I'd suggest looking into containerizing your existing apps and deploying on a "serverless" managed service like Fargate (or your favorite cloud provider's equivalent). This approach is also lets you go to a different cloud provider if you want... or even move back to your own datacenter with no code changes.

Buying a bigger house just allows you to park more of your net worth in real estate. As a diversification it makes sense. But also as you make more money the payment becomes less and less of your monthly income.

It’s not absurd. It’s just a different reason for buying a house.

The two other ways I’ve seen is a direct dependency on the secrets manager or injecting files.

Environment variables seem to be the standard.

Direct dependency is usually bad and injecting files violates the immutable nature of a container.

Finding an undiscovered market doesn’t have to be from a pivot. If you’ve lived the problem or are on the edge of a technology or power curve yourself, you can uncover a new market without a pivot.

I should have been more clear that I was referring to external dependencies that are included. I did some research and there’s so much extra stuff included in the go.sum. You’re right that would result in a lot of false positives.

I got similar advice early in my career.

You don’t have to create the wave. Find an existing wave grab a surf board and figure out a way to ride it.

Sing this to chorus of Jingle Bells and you’ll never forget it.

X equals opposite of B + or - square root… b squared minus 4 AC all Over 2 A… yay!

If the vulnerability is present it’s still a vulnerability. Just because the module isn’t enabled doesn’t mean it can’t still be taken advantage of in a remote code execution scenario.

Not using a library !== not vulnerable.

If you hate exercising you might try focusing on something else and use it as a way to get better.

Like I want to shoot in the 80s in golf, run a 7 minute mile or whatever. It helped me find a love for it because it was a way to “train for my goal” rather than an everyday slog.

After about 4 weeks I started to look forward to it and really went down a rabbit hole optimizing workouts, sleep and food.

It can be really fun!

If you play competitive sports you would see there is a huge skill set that is learned via sports.

Teamwork, acting/thinking under pressure, detailed preparation, controlling nerves, performing in front of crowds (with high expectations), pride in your body and performance.

These are just a few high level/low hanging fruits learned from competitive sport.

Sports teams don’t really work that way.

They provide the facilities and a prescriptive plan to get the team where they need to be game ready. Drills, strategy and ensuring everyone is operating as a team on the field.

Tuning their body is the responsibility of the player. The teams aren’t sending them a list of what to eat, how to train or what exercises to do. That’s on the athlete.

Of course they do have specialists to help if the players needs but it’s not “total control for performance”

Don’t give advice unless someone asks… but since you did, first there are a lot of ways to give advice but here’s what works for me.

Frame it with “I can tell you what works for me, but everyone is different and there are a lot of ways to do things… <advice/>”
