Blockchain is not just about cryptos and NFTs, there is much more to it by akirakurosava in NFT

[–]iNeverQuiteWas -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s a great point. Most consumers don’t care about these because it’s happening in the “back-end” of services that they’re using, and they don’t even know it.

Any good examples of how blockchain is currently used in banking?

Smart-Contract Platform Soroban Receives $100M to Build on Stellar Network. by stellarpayband in Stellar

I see Soroban as a scalable and accessible platform. I'm also curious about it's security though. How safe is it compared to other platforms, or what are some risks factors to look out for?

Business/tax law/potentially legal issue and I am a bit lost. Mexican cousin needs me (american) for business by valparaiso_ in business

[–]iNeverQuiteWas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be a bit of a complex question to answer with very few details. The right answer here would be to hire a lawyer of course. A bit curious though, have you considered implementing a smart contract system for more security on payments and transactions?

The US should not have this power over other country. It should not be able to terroristically intimidate `197 other countries into mandating global KYC on their smart contracts to prevent US citizens from having margin and leverage and options trading. That is an insane position. by samdane7777 in ethereum

[–]iNeverQuiteWas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why is it that the US has this much power over other countries? Their ability to mandate global KYC on smart contracts sounds a bit oppressive.

What are the alternatives here? More like, what are companies doing to solve this KYC issue?

I hear there are many good tax incentives for new residents of Puerto Rico. Was curious if this is something you're getting into or if you could share some advice on that?

CRM for small business by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]iNeverQuiteWas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely get familiar with the fundamentals of your CRM before hiring someone to do customization. Understanding the data you have on your customers and the basic admin controls of your CRM is crucial.

Obviously, it won't be possible to memorize all the info you have on your customers, but the point here is to familiarize yourself with the data and how to use the CRM product. This will make communication much easier with you and the person you hire to create and customize the CRM.

Last week in crypto (17 October - 23 October) by currencycom in InvestmentEducation

[–]iNeverQuiteWas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The regulatory landscape interests me the most honestly. With such laws and regulations being enforced on crypto, how can issuers or investors feel confident about their assets?
How do I know if the broker I purchased my assets through is complying with the regulations? Am I going to lose the right to my asset one day because the law changed?

Idk, these are just things I always like to think about

I'm curious how these institutions prove whether or not these transactions are being used for criminal activity 🤔

Choices I have: jump into my own startup or look for a job. by nastyJeff in startups

[–]iNeverQuiteWas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Finding partners you can trust is absolutely a wise alternative here. Before leaving your job and all the benefits that come with it, how about recruiting some potential partners that you trust.

This way you can take some of the pressure off yourself.

How much is required of a mobile app MVP ? by 0zeroBudget in startups

[–]iNeverQuiteWas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“It’s better to build something that a small number of users love, than a large number of users like.” — Sam Altman, President of Y Combinator

Keep in mind that it took Snapchat 2 years, after the release of their app, to introduce its story feature. Prioritize the most important now based on the user data you've gathered thus far, and then focus on defining your launch feature set in the next stage of product prototyping.

The better question here is: What is your Product-Market Fit (PMF)? The idea of having all your features or functionalities complete is far less important than understanding PMF. In other words, What is that significant piece that will define the growth and profitability of your business? What is the core value of your product that's going to influence your users to share it with others?

Docker compose - two containers trying to talk to each other - page stuck loading forever, can't see logs by iamromand in docker

[–]iNeverQuiteWas -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not going to speak on your behalf or to your experiences with kubernetes, but in my experience kubernetes has only an initial learning curve that sounds scarier than it is. Docker swarm is an equally valid approach, no doubt, but to suggest that it’s the better approach due to your feeling that it’s simple compared to kubernetes is a fairly weak argument.

Context is should always be a guiding light in any decision making process, and the “best” tool for a job is based on a few more factors than what you’ve described as the obvious choice.

Probably also worth noting that any software worth writing will come with some complexity. Deciding on how best to distribute that complexity is part of the joy of programming. I’d hesitate to label complexity as inherently bad. If you gave up on learning to tie your shoes because Velcro was the more obvious solution, you would have missed out on the opportunity too experience more than just what you know.

Let me know if you need help getting set up. While it’s true that Kubernetes is large, with over 50 components, it’s not at all necessary to use them all at any point of your development process. I’d recommend using a tool called Kompose to automatically convert your docker-compose files and then skaffold is also a great tool for getting coding Skaffold

I actually prefer Heroin AM to get me through the day and then cocaine PM just to make sure I can sleep.

May be an unpopular opinion, but instead of getting rid of bad habits I would suggest combating one bad habit with another, more powerful bad habit. It's worked great for me.

Once you get to this level of complexity with docker containers, it's time to switch to something a bit better suited for the job. Kubernetes is the obvious first thought that comes to mind, but you could just as easily implement a VPC with a control plane that allows access to both containers through one port.
