Not sure how you define great, but as long as you provide a platform for people to find new opportunities and is quite successful for both parties, I'd say it's great and quite an achievement.

We started right away from scratch on Elixir. No Erlang before, just Ruby and some other "best tools for the job". It's pretty cool to be able to select whatever technology fits what you want to achieve.

After 2 months using Elixir in a big project for a big company, I must say that I'm really enjoying what's going on. Some libraries are still young, but other than that, the main ones work as expected.

I built https://numbers.today. A quantified self platform with an API available for everyone.

In the beginning was very hard; it's your new baby and you need to put a lot of effort, passion and discipline to get things done.

Now I'm struggling because I don't have much time to work on this, but I hope in the next few weeks I'll be able to ship some features that are already built.

The content is in portuguese (sorry about that). Seems like every ISP in Portugal is now blocking access to uber.com. I can still use the app, but I don't know how long it will last.

What the f is wrong with these guys? This is following a stupid "law" where cab drivers can now charge 20 euros (as soon as you sit inside the cab) to go to city centre. And yes, that's the minimum you'll pay when you arrive in Portugal.

Why there's a need for children to learn coding? This is getting really crazy. Seems like everyone needs to code and everyone is pushing towards that.

I don't see this happening for plumbing, to give you a short example, or any other professional area.

EDIT: I was a coach at a Django Girls event. I support these kind of events, but still, I don't see the reason to really push children to learn coding in their 5 or 6 years old. At that age, they are supposed to play with other children in the backyard, getting dirty. We are losing that. Probably, my generation (1990) was the last having that joy.

Thanks for your explanation. AGPL3 sounds nice. I hope my next question doesn't make this more confusing, but in my roadmap for the next months I have a paid subscription plan. Is this still doable with this license?

I guess I'm just overthinking about this problem instead of focusing in the real deal. I have the product in place, I'm preparing a paid plan for the future and after that, release the source code. Shouldn't be that hard to decide. Damn.

Quite scary because I see people buying this for fun. There are a lot of startups struggling to find paying customers, with real products, and then you have this kind of joke that will sell more than those startups.

It's really sad.
