I think an unintended byproduct of prolonged cheap capital is an environment ripe with antitrust issues. I’m all for capitalism mentality but this feels like a logical extreme and is not good for the long term.

Not trying to detract from the OP, but to provide a combination I have running in production for 2 years.
- aws cdk (with outputs)
- https://github.com/zappa/Zappa
- a python script which stitches outputs from cdk into the zappa config
- extra python scripts to do a few small things post deployment. Zappa has some bugs that would be tedious to fix vs 100 lines of python.
Our product has the luxury of only being used during stock market hours and really thrives in serverless everything. We use rds serverless (v2) along with lambdas.
Some of our work is heavy and we’ll dynamically spin up an ecs container which has the hallmarks of a normal django app: redis + celery queues. We try to saturate the ecs container resources with this type of setup. After the container is done, it’ll shutdown.
I was super skeptical of this 2 years ago. 4 envs costing ~$2k/month. I would do this setup again if the product warrants windowed usage.
Not this specifically, but I think I’m starting to see a pattern. Redis, elastic, openai, wordpress. Each came to realize that the open source benefit has a glaring issue with their corporate interests.
I do wonder if Tim Apple would be so bold as to stop selling in the EU for all the rules and regulations that they have been required to follow. It would be amazing to see that play out imo. Like a reverse boycott could happen?
The secondary strategy Timmy could pull is a dumbed down ecosystem in the EU which I’m sure is even worse for everyone. But hey, you’d be able to buy audible books straight in the app. Is it worth it?
I resonate with this topic. Checking your own repos on a new computer is one thing… inheriting someone else’s project and running it on your machine in the node ecosystem is very rough.
It has the advantage of using .vue files which I enjoy. Oh and guess what… it has code splitting because you have to define what components the page needs ;).
I used https://acquire.com/ in this case. I looked at maybe 80 companies just from the surface. Then inquired about 15-20 of them for more details. After about a week of thinking, zeplo wouldn’t leave my mind. There was one other close contender but zeplo was more present in my mind and had better metrics.
From there it was letter of intent, due diligence, asset agreement, escrow, and asset transfer. Hopefully this helps.

I’ve seen uuid4 which replaces the first 4 bytes with a timestamp. It was mentioned to me that this strategy allows postgres to write at the end of the index instead of arbitrarily on disk. I also presume it means it has some decent sorting.
