Thanks for the idea. Basically that's why I'm considering DApp - new stuff. Also new language - Solidity. On top of that new paradigm I'd say. Refreshing. Yet something practical - I mean I could Imagine building a mvp. On the other hand building a gRPC which you suggested is more like system programming with target audience other developers and their software - low level stuff. Guess I'm more on the other side. Did you switch at some point after doing same stuff for years?

Simple and ultra low cost (sometimes free) loyalty program software for small business owners using Google and Apple Wallet. All the tech hassle taken away from them. Tailored to local markets with language support, formats and habits. For the client side FB, telegram or whatsapp sign up, no password, no nothing. Just get the card via qrcode and that's it. Comprised of a web app for the SMB's and their admin staff (basic tenant setup). Mobile app for the line staff (Android). Also adding staff check ins to automatically calculate monthy hours.

All this is based on previous work with real coffee shop business owners. So giving it a try as a SAAS service.

As far as I know the OS handles the low lever memory management. The ephemeral database uses the allocated from the OS ram. Depending on your OS configuration one may have or not have a swap. However for the database app (daemon, service) this may be transparent. Either there is some free ram to run or there's no ram available.

The other thing is that probably it's not a good idea to rely on swap memory. Not sure there's a point of going that path for performance reasons.

If you have a remote dev job in the US then any Asia country would be great. Just need to do some visa runs every couple months and that's it. Low entry barrier and fun. Not a local job though but much better salary/cost of living ratio. Also if the chosen country is say Thailand - positive overall vibe.

Probably the easiest would be starting off with Firebase for the overall backend and user management. Stripe for payments including recurring. However, if the project will take off, then you'd be dealing with a dilemma: how to switch to something more mature friendly Like, say, Django or others. I use Django as the main backend framework (sometimes for full stack).

perhaps adding a challenge (captcha, other) if the pattern of the client is being considered malicious (requests per min, avg time on page, other stats)? This might not entirely block the crawler, but will still provide data that will allow blocking entirely the source if it's a cloud IP range, degrading the velocity of crawling if measures taken. The other way around would be displaying publicly a degraded in any way copy of the content and delivering a full (high quality) one after signing in.

Overall - simply making life a bit harder for the crawler (AI or plain old hardcoded one).

Stack: - Django - DRF - gunicorn or uwsgi - celery (and a broker) or uwsgi spools - postgrSQL - Grafana (Loki, promtail)

Have experience on AWS, GCP and pure Linux (systemd, permissions, other basic stuff).

As a bonus have some Firebase (NodeJS and Firestore) experience and ReactJS experience - 2 MVP's buil in 2019-2021. Open to new opportunities

I’m working on a problem I have myself as a developer-founder: how to prioritize my dev and product time and focus on one project. Happened so that this is not only my issue. It is pretty common that it was a topic of one of the y combinator startup schools lectures. Here’s a link to the early version built on firebase and react: https://www.priorittime.com/ Still have to figure out how to make it smooth and intuitive. But using it now myself: dogfood. So if anyone has suggestions, pls comment. Thanks.
