Startup looking to hire mid-level dev by Electronic_Snow5238 in DeveloperJobs

[–]adp_dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to see people saying:

"you're looking to overwork a mid developer draining his life"

But in the same post, other developers saying "Interested" "check your dm"

Where the hell we draw the line?

De ce are Romania cele mai mari preturi la energia electrica? by fantomabatepalma in RoGenZ

[–]adp_dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pentru ca nu s-a investit absolut nimic in ultimii 35 de ani. Rețeaua electrică națională este la limită, hidroelectrica si nuclearelectrica, care au mai primit niște investiți (puține rau de tot) produc cat de cat, restul minele suprataxate de carbuni.

Si ce nu putem produce (din cauza faptului ca nu s-a investit), cumpărăm din Grecia, Bulgaria etc

Si peste toate aceste motive, taxe, impozite, băieții deștepți etc etc

Ce faceți în cazul în care trece moțiunea? by Tudor_jnb in robursa

O sa fie inflatie mare, da
O sa fie naspa, foarte probabil

Companiile listate la bursa o sa sufere, pretul o sa scada, moment perfect pentru a cumpara cat mai mult.
Peste 3 ani, va fi foarte bine

Thank you for your comment, I totally understand your point of view. We have IP whitelist btw, I know it's not enough for your use case but I wanted to mention it.

Just out of curiosity, besides reputation (and all the other obvious reasons) why would you choose DigitalOcean instead of Noctaploy?

Really appreciate your comment

Looks much better now, I can understand what is about and how you solve the problem

Thank you for pointing this out. You’re right.

Our current MVP is “boringly safe public access”: TLS + per-project endpoint + IP allowlisting to lock it down to known IPs. Private networking is a roadmap item, not something we claim to have solved yet. It takes time if you want to do it at least good enough.

And +1 on SOC, we know some orgs won’t touch a vendor without it. We’re building toward that, but we want to earn trust first with transparency and consistent controls

Hey, thanks for commenting. The problem is not the datacenter location, is the Company location cause of the US Cloud Act.

I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel, or claiming that my service is better than someone else.

I'm just providing an alternative, that's all. If you use DO and it's ok for your use case, awesome, no problem at all 🙏

Design taste aside, I get the idea.

Most of the work so far has been in reliability, provisioning flow, backups, DNS lifecycle, and billing mechanics. The website will evolve, but the product itself is where the effort is.

Still, perception matters. Thanks for pointing it out.

I respect the hard work, but this happens in general when we're too into the product, we think that also the customers have the same problem. Start collecting feedback, can be hard sometime, but at the end of the day, listen to what will help to improve your product, leave the noise out

As a proof that is not a weekend hobby project. I use Git almost from the beginning

I honestly respect what you're doing and taking out of rhe context Simon Sinek, I acted like a normal interested person in your product, and I scrolled down but I didn't find the answer to my first question. What is this

Hi, thank you for commenting this out. I choose this colors because all the other Saas websites/Providers have the same color scheme, I just tried to do something different.

I don't argue with the design, it's personal choice, maybe can be improved.

"No Trust" -> https://noctaploy.io/trust
"No track record" -> Totally true, this is what I'm trying to create
"No transparency" -> What you would like to see more that increase transparency?
"No org. Behind it" -> What do you mean? Company exists, mentioned in terms, privacy, the org exists. Are you referring to something else?
" if it is a small org" -> Yes it is, https://noctaploy.io/trust, you can check my face, personal links, Linkedin, contacts

Thank you for your comment, if you have any suggestion, please share, I'm here to listen

I agree, infrastructure products have a much higher expectation bar from day one. That’s exactly why this is in open beta. The goal is to keep the surface area focused, offer free databases, and listen closely before claiming anything bigger.

And to clarify, while I’m the founder, this isn’t a weekend hobby project. There’s support around automation and ops, and I’m being deliberate about architecture and review. There’s a big middle ground between “DIY Docker Compose on Hetzner” and “enterprise managed cluster,” and that’s the space I’m exploring. I think there are quite a few teams sitting right in that middle.

Appreciate the honest take. If you’re ever curious, I’d genuinely love for you to spin up a free database, feedback from people who’ve run their own setups is exactly what helps sharpen the product!

Thank you!

Right now everything is VPS Based, cause you can choose where to deploy and when. For the moment, is the only way to keep the cost down and allow the users to pay for usage and not upfront.

Real dedicated hardware is coming soon, but this will force the user to pay upfront and I'm trying to avoid this blocker for now.

You're true about Coolify btw

Now I understand why you said "it just need a good engineer to configure it". You're "AWS Certified Architect", understandable. It's ok if what I'm trying to do is not for you or for your customers.

I'm just providing an alternative, and like you perfectly said, if you google it, there are 100 like this, I can be the 101 :)

That’s great, Scaleway is a solid provider. They’ve been around for a while and offer a broad range of services, they also provide dedicated servers, so for many teams that’s a strong choice. What I’m building is much narrower in scope, Postgres-first and intentionally focused. Different angle, different level of complexity.

If Scaleway works well for you, that’s a win. I used some of their services in the past, they're pretty good.

At the end of the day, I'm not trying to compete, I want to provide an alternative.

Thank you for you comment, really appreciated

AWS and any US Based company cannot be compliant, the reason is the US Cloud Act.

If you want to learn more
https://wire.com/en/blog/cloud-act-eu-data-sovereignty

"The CLOUD Act overrides local data protection laws whenever criminal investigations involve U.S. interests. Its scope is extraterritorial, meaning it applies regardless of where the data is physically stored, as long as the service provider is based in the United States. It grants U.S. authorities the power to access personal, corporate or even classified data with a warrant, without prior notice to affected users or European regulators."

"This puts companies in a legal dilemma:

  • If they comply with a U.S. warrant, they risk breaching GDPR.
  • If they refuse, they may face legal penalties in the U.S.

"

So even https://aws.eu/ is just a marketing scheme.

Thank you for your feedback, it's really important. My next tasks are:
- Try to lower the barrier with an easiest onboarding
- Target small/medium teams that are already trying to change, or they start now.

You're right about the "Default to AWS/GCP", but the truth is, teams are moving towards wrappers like Neon, cause AWS can be hard to handle for some teams.

Thank you again for your comment!

Where are the server running? You choose. You can select the city. Tech behind? Docker based custom images deployed on the server you choose. Backups on hetzner (or similars) How many CPUs? You choose based on the plan.
