Story of my life.

Switzerland is overrated. It's a beautiful country, but quality of life (if you want or have children) is far from good. It's brutal and backwards. For example, there is a tax "punishme…

Zürich so far up? Daycare costs are through the roof, so much so that it makes more sense for one parent to quit and stay with the kids fulltime. Have more than one child? You’re in for a world of hur…

Just something I noticed: the pricing information on the frontpage and the pricing page does not seem to match.

He acquired a site I built which I used to operate on user donations. Today the site no longer exists.

These reports are usually handled by a single person with a dozen other responsibilities. Chances are, nobody will ever read majority of user generated reports. Also, the person may have already left …

> “To let everyone know, this is not novel” Who asked?

I perceived it that way as well, but I have to partly agree. Here's my reasoning: if someone just invented a new icon (created it from scratch and gave it a meaning), they should be aware that ma…

The self-host documentation returns a 404: https://cusdis.com/doc#/self-host/installation …

I feel the same way. I’ll bite once I see Microsoft release Outlook built with this.

So when purchasing Visual Studio subscription in order to write software for windows, you expect nothing to work out of the box? I'd love to see you tackle a WPF monolith within a regulated envir…

.NET 6? Hold up, WPF was never really finished. This is demonstrated by existence of companies which sell lacking components that should otherwise have been included with WPF: Telerik, Infragistics, S…

And Xamarin forms was never really finished, it is still lacking on every front. Just look at the open issues and feature requests. I would not be surprised if MAUI also gets abandoned halfway throug…

I'd love to hear your thoughts on my design for 20-things.com. There is also a dark mode, based on browser/OS theme.

I actually was hoping that this would be a 3D game-like environment, where you walk around a library and are able to click on a book and it appears in your hands and you can flip through a few pages, …

On a similar note, would you be willing to do a 4-hour take-home programming task, as part of the recruiting process?

Congratulations! Hard work does seem to pay off.

> What's stopping you, or anyone else, from forking code and making it privacy focused? Off the top of my head? My rent. Someone has to pay it, and if I wanted to dethrone Chrome, I'd hav…

We lost the war, haven't we?

It makes things very convenient for hackers.

Of course it is.

There was a "war" against money-laundering? I highly doubt that.

I just added my SaaS there [1], have zero expectations but I'll be happy to report back if I notice any positive effects. https://pdf2qrcode.com …

Can you really answer "Is the market still growing?" with 90+% certainty?

Fully agree. It's a total mess and it needs a major reform. It's also a by-design unfair system only for the rich - as those with ideas (especially in 3rd world countries) don't have th…

Pretty much. It's appalling.

Software patents should not exist.

On a similar note, I built quite a few things, one of which resulted in millions of daily active users, getting its own Wikipedia page, articles in The New York Times, Fortune and 50+ others. I built …

Just tried it again, it's definitely a firewall or block of some kind. I doubt anyone from Zürich can reach this server.
