nice to see more of these snake oil/fake SaaS by indie developers, enjoy the easy money while it lasts, because it won't for so long, or will it?

That's why I have never found a single useful product on ProductHunt for years now. It has become an absolute farce that it should be illegal.
How much does it take to pay a hunter on PH in order to be featured these days? asking for a friend.
there is no such thing neither in GPL nor in FOSS to be GPL in noncommercial uses and at the same time invalidate the license in commercial or closed uses. This is outright gaslighting, not to mention that the entire project is literally a big nothing burger like I said before, it's even less nothing burger than paid "get Geo/IP" apis for instance which needs at least some operations effort even despite becoming increasingly trivial in the serverless age.
Rendora is true FOSS, free and self-hosted with very lightweight usage of resources.
Thanks to these con artists and careless big investors like SoftBank, once the recession comes, blockchain, AI, etc... will go into another long winter
you're not just an arts startup, you're in the classical music business so that's 10000x harder, most tech based startups that enter that business fail because they cannot grow as a usual startup should. There is a company called IDAGIO that was founded probably around 2013, it relaunched multiple times, they played with the pricing from free to 5$/month to 10$/month to free again, they raised around 20 million dollars and employed 100 people, they bribed and paid journalists under and over the table to get every possible positive coverage possible for more than 2 years now, they bought facebook, twitter followers, they did everything including the dirtiest growth tactics any marketing pro would think of, and they are still struggling with growth.
It's a very tough business and needs extreme patience and shamelessness alike. My recommendation is to do partnerships with other arts companies or institutions related to your market, most of such partnerships are fake anyway, but can somehow give you some boost. That's at least what IDAGIO, the longest surviving classical music company has been doing so far, beside bribing journalists of course :D.
the skill of shamelessly shilling for yourself on HN, Reddit, Twitter, IH and PH all day long, everyday until you make it.
They are not, but isn't it a weird coincidence that his alleged victims stayed silent with a fucking RAPE case until he decided to expose the most powerful people and governments in the world?
There were, not long ago, times when Assange was considered a saint of freedom after he exposed the corrupt Bush administration, the liberals everywhere were defending him and his case everywhere, they even made a Hollywood film about him. But he then made the mistake of his life, he exposed the corruption of the Clintons and got implicated in the Russia gate meme because Trump somehow won. Now he is totally on his own. Nobody will defend him even if these corrupt governments burnt him alive and broadcasted it live. Makes you think if these liberals actually give a single shit about freedom anyway.
I know that this is an ultra liberal community and I will get downvoted and flagged within a few minutes. But if someone is too scared to even lose a worthless website account to say what he sees as the right opinion, he should not live anyway.
I am not, that's just how things are these days. And if you're talking in a condescending way to me as if I am the angry white male, I assure you I am not white and not even a Western man and never been to the west.

Almost every post that links to brave.com makes it to the frontpage withing minutes. And all criticism is buried with lots of shilling. This company has been compromising HN for years now, as well as other influential online communites like Reddit and 4chan.
Brave is a scam just like most "privacy centered" parasite products like DDG and VPN providers. All these companies are run by shameless and aggressive useless parasites who actually offer nothing but a rebranded product made by others. It's sad that a community supposedly filled by software engineers fall for and promote such scams
Kubernetes itself which for most users today still relies on Docker
Not anymore, over the past couple of years Kubernetes slowly stripped Docker most of its power to the point that Docker can be totally removed from k8s clusters. And this will be widely be the norm in a couple of years or so
Jim Simons and David E. Shaw are legends who should have some HBO series about them. Both were researchers who left academia to beat the scumbags of wall streets in their own game with no finance background and they made unbelievably so much money in a very short of time that they would have been jailed or killed if they weren't in the US.
I didn't read that part of the CIA report
ffs you are a CEO of a major public company and make 100s of millions per year. 99% of your job description is to be a thoughtful bulshitter yet that's the best you've got?
nice way for marketing. You could have posted a SHOW HN a thousand times and nobody would care, but this is creative way for a succesful SHOW HN
Thank you Alex Crichton, Niko Matsakis and all other core devs, Rust is by far the most well designed programming language I've ever dealt with. It's a masterpiece of software engineering IMO.
This is great, but how can I use the self-hosted solution? it's advertised in their website but couldn't find anything in the docs.
transferring money to people who are unproductive

After decades of academic research, true randomness finally achieved.
Once I listed around 10 technical criticism points here a year ago without insulting and I got banned. I am just not going to waste a day trying to convince anybody with anything while most of the criticism has been stated a million times by a million people all over the internet.
Criticizing Golang here in HN will get me banned for causing flamewar. However, you can find lots of reasonable criticism on Golang just by googling. IMO Golang is one of the worst languages I've ever seen considering it was only started a decade ago.
He forgot the most important factor to Go's success: ignorance is bliss. Imagine releasing such a mediocre language only a decade ago an still be very popular
Thanks for the swift response from the founder, I just don't understand those types of sneaky github issues that surprisingly get very rapidly to the HN frontpage as smear campaign against startups, when even setting the application name and version in the user agent header in a FOSS application that can be opted-out is considered spying, then everything can be spying
DDG coincidentally makes almost every post to the frontpage as if it was a trillion dollar company meanwhile almost all interesting SHOW HN threads upon which the entire future of livelihood of many indie devs and micro startups depend are buried without even getting the slightest chance to get any coverage.
It isn't 2006 anymore obviously. If you want to create a viral social website in 2019 you will have to bribe Facebook, Twitter and Google with hundreds of thousands worth of ads within those 10 weeks and you will still never get the same reach you could get for free in 2009. The internet, since around 2014, has stagnated into a few protectionist tech world powers that pretend to be everything else.

Thanks, let's hope so, making it in Ubuntu 20.04 will be a huge success since Ubuntu LTS versions are used heavily and supported by all major cloud vendors
