I find the question of the existence of god a nonquestion. Invented looking for an answer in a space without one.
I think it stems from our incredible ability to learn, and struggle to unlearn.
However, I think we are on the verge of having an understanding of the universe in which learning will be seen as a fundamental part of physical reality.
Where gods are to the people who have them as real as they think they are. Only that they are real in the space of their minds, and no where else.
Given this, I think we’ll soon see the gap between our incoherent internal reality and coherent external reality narrow.
I actually looked at Fastly just a few days ago. Unfortunately their custom SSL fees are a bit high. But seems really nice and will definitely do a write-up if we try them.
I don't understand this. You have so much traffic that you need CloudFront, but cannot earn enough to spare $600/mo? What kind of startup is it?
From what I could tell talking with some people so far, is that they only think they need CDN, while a couple of regular dedicated servers would be just fine. But, then again, most of my customers are in Europe so I can serve files cheaply. In US, I'm currently using FDCServers, which are 3.3x more expensive than equivallent Hetzner server. And this was one of the cheapest I found. I find most Amazon services to be overpriced. IMHO, you're just paying more for the brand name.
The reason we're using a CDN is not because of the traffic - that would be easily solved with an AWS server and a lightweight http server such as nginx. We decided to go with a CDN because of two reasons:
1) The website and web app should load fast all over the world. Not only in the US or Sweden (where we live).
2) We don't want to host or put any time into hosting or own website and static files. We rather pay a little extra to don't have to think of that ever again ;)
Payment processing, social login and welcome/confirmation emails is on top of our list!
The "launching soon" page is thought as a nice 1st step for people that haven't launched their app yet but still want to get users into UserApp. But we're not going to become like another LaunchRock, so no need to worry :)
