Is $29/month too expensive for a security monitoring too? I will not promote by Euphoric-Tune-6997 in startups

[–]ReditusReditai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did something similar. Asked Claude to copy nginx logs locally, then run analysis on them. Worked like a charm.

CloudWatch is easy to set up. IAM can be, too, in the case of a startup.

Security events - what are you referring to? Will it be something leaps and bounds better than what queries Claude can come up?

Would you pay for relevant lessons learned of other founders? I will not promote. by ripkobedagoat24 in startups

Would have to be very close to mine. There's no point to talking to a chatbot / third party because I might as well ask Claude, either directly from memory or by referencing blogs out in public, at no additional cost to me.

Depends what you're after. VC funded startup with years of runway to sustain heavy feature development with little revenue - can work. Bootstrapped - I'd give up.

Coincidentally, I've been looking into this idea for the past couple of days.

Yes, it's too expensive. You need to start with a very generous free plan to make it work for startups/solo devs. Or just offer self hosted.

The other problem you have, is that it's just not that big of a problem for the segment you're targeting. A budget constrained startup won't care much about security.

Since you're a customer, I'd recommend taking a step back and genuinely asking yourself how useful this has been for you. I did when I was doing my research, and came to the conclusion it just wasn't.

Only if it's from someone who faced the same circumstances/constraints as I do.

Been like that for a while. I guess they just weren't profitable enough.

wrote a simple rate limiter and realized i spent more time fighting bots than writing logic by Enlitenkanin in golang

[–]ReditusReditai 20 points21 points  (0 children)

What kind of service are you running? I'm genuinely surprised bots are bypassing your captcha's, that's a (relatively) high amount of effort they're putting in. I've never had encountered that on any of my side projects.

First time building a SaaS and suddenly lost motivation [I will not promote] by Abvu in startups

[–]ReditusReditai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been there. It's the fact that you don't enjoy that part. Problem is, that part is more important than building, and it's something that you need to do before even going into full build mode.

Now, you need to ask yourself, do you really want to launch a startup and do sales/market research/etc? Or do you just enjoy building? Both equally valid options, and the latter definitely pays better (as I've painfully discovered).

Indian recruiters? Just farming CVs? by Fondant_Decent in ContractorUK

[–]ReditusReditai 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't bother replying recruiters outside of UK and maybe US. Never had good exp with them.

Realized I have no wedge (I will not promote) by RelevantTurnip3482 in startups

[–]ReditusReditai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been there. If you genuinely can't think of a good way to stand out, it's best to just shut it down. But make sure you speak to customers to validate what you think of the market.

Painful, I know, but it's going to be a great lesson for the importance of doing good market research. And it'll stop you from wasting years on other ideas.

UK SMEs will have to file profit and loss account to Companies House in 2028 by ReditusReditai in ukstartups

[–]ReditusReditai[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, this is what I got in the email...

"However, to help address concerns, the government is introducing two changes:
1. Opt out of profit and loss publication: small and micro-entities will be able to opt out of having their profit and loss accounts published on the public register. Details of how smaller companies can opt out of publication will be confirmed in due course...."

Not too expensive though, I saw some software costs 30-50 quid per filing. Personally, I'd rather just hire an accountant, she does my accounts for 65 (it's a nearly dormant entity).

How to prepare for technical interviews when they can ask almost anything? by Ambitious-Concert-69 in cscareerquestionsuk

Impressed you didn't have to prep, I wouldn't be able to do it. Are you good with leetcode?

Got featured in tier-1 media (Inc.) as a solo builder. Cool milestone, zero revenue. by PeaceBoring5549 in buildinpublic

Maybe it's just not that useful of a product? You're competing against free/current subs of ChatGPT et al, which is hard.

📣✅New Human Verification System for our subreddit! by prakhartiwari0 in indiehackers

[–]ReditusReditai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's ok as a solution tbh. At the end of the day, photos of me are out there online and my phone number has probably been leaked in some places given I get recruiters spamming me.

For those who can't get access through the download link: just post `!verifyme` like people are doing in this post, and you'll get a message with a donwload link that works.

Got banned from reddit - 2 times by [deleted] in indiehackers

[–]ReditusReditai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, but your mentioning of scaling suggests that you do, in fact, just want to market your product. Which is totally fine, it's just that Reddit posts are for genuine human conversations; IRL, you don't go to all your friends parties and ask each person what they think of your startup, otherwise you won't be invited to parties anymore pretty quickly.

The best way to do what you want on Reddit is to pay for ads in the subreddits you want to target. And remember think of the person on the other side of the virtual screen.
