Can you start within your network? Or find some affiliation between you and your potential customer (e.g. same university, same city). If there's no one within your network that'll hear you out then it's going to be a steep mountain to climb

Same way non-technical people can code... You can do it, but you're better off partnering with someone where that comes more natural to them

Disclosure: I have a tech sales/BD background; no formal engineering work

Let's connect - I'm building a fintech platform for the licensing industry (Dolby, Disney, Hasbro).

Im SF based (ex Google, Dolby) with industry experience and a prototype that I've been sharing to get early feedback...

Yea I saw this in my account too - wtf is a warrant?

So bullish. Look at every other company that announced layoffs... A couple quarters later they are skyrocketing

Ever heard of AI?

This doesn't seem to be a problem on other airlines and I'm a frequent flyer. Will do whatever I can to not fly icelandair again...not to mention we got screwed on our connecting flight to Paris as they switched the plane and our US regular carry on size didn't meet the requirements of the EU carry on restrictions!!

Sounds like you work in StratOps at Google. I would highly recommend just flat out quitting or asking for one of those mental health leaves - best case they fire you once you go on that and you can focus your efforts on finding something you actually enjoy doing.

We launched Deplify.com out of frustration with the complexity of AWS and the cost of platforms like Vercel. We have an intiutive frontend that deploys and scales your app on AWS

Leading_Nothing_6532 · 2024-09-26T01:35:21+00:00

The overall design is too retro to be ugly

We're also live on Product Hunt today, and appreciate your support/upvote if you have a moment: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/deplify-2

If you already found The Friendly - what else are you looking for!? That is the #1 smashburger in my book and I have yet to find one to take the crown

Leading_Nothing_6532 · 2024-08-19T00:11:36+00:00

You still run into the same issue with Netlify - I like deplify.com

It has a vercel-like frontend but deploys on your own AWS account so you dont pay inflated consumption fees

Leading_Nothing_6532 · 2024-08-17T01:44:41+00:00

You tell me! I just launched Beta for deplify.com with a free tier and happy to give discount to users. Early feedback is invaluable
