> Is there a way to run this setup from a battery or would it need a power socket?
Well, I'm sure there is some way. The power draw would be low enough to run off a battery. But realistically it would be much easier to just plug in every time.
> Could you recommend any portable 4k screens?
No, sorry. I have a 16" 2k portable UPerfect screen which, while not the best screen I've ever used, is very decent for the price, since it was only about $120. But if you're willing to spend considerably more I'm sure you can get much better.
Signing up for the free trial funnels me to the trial of Gitlab Ultimate. So assuming that you need an Ultimate subscription to use it after the trial, that's the price. Pricing is here https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/
"What's great about this country is America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest. You can be watching TV and see Coca-Cola, and you can know that the President drinks Coke, Liz Taylor drinks Coke, and just think, you can drink Coke, too. A Coke is a Coke and no amount of money can get you a better Coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking. All the Cokes are the same and all the Cokes are good"
You gotta feel for the techs running adult sites. Used to be (maybe still is?) the bleeding edge of web tech. Payments, micro payments, video, advanced site search, content filtering, crypto,... I guess there is a lesson there, like "serving primal urges = $$$". But you never see those resumes on linkedin.
This [1] estimates the annual Bitcoin energy consumption at 145TWh. If the Bitcoin network were a country it would rank 25 in the world by energy consumption [2].
The cost of that electricity is hard to estimate but if you use a ballpark of $0.10/kWh that puts the cost of the Bitcoin network at almost $15 billion annually just for the electricity.
Improved human <-> animal communications at scale.
Given the state of machine learning with unstructured audio data, machine translation, and robotics, I would have hoped for better methods to communicate with wild animals, cattle and our pets by now.
> And it's all about relationships, which is something nearly every startup in this space misses, which is why nearly all of them fail faster and harder than they do in other industries.
Could you expand on this? It's not clear from the outside how this would be such a central part of the industry.
Not even just that, in CPG store managers typically have a lot of autonomy in what SKUs get carried, how many placements of each, what shelf locations, etc.
It's not easy for a small to mid-sized brand to try to get their product into stores when each physical brick and mortar store is a pitch in and of itself. So what ends up happening is brands partner with Agencies who specialize in building relationships with each of the store managers in a region and advocating for all of the brands in their portfolio.
I realize this is a step removed from Instacart and delivery services, but the whole industry tends to operate in a similar interpersonal/relationship-based way.
Redash offer this as a feature[1]. Their product starts at $49 per month for unlimited users with up to three data sources from a wide range[2], not just Postgres.
I think the Google Sheets export is very valuable, it opens up data to non-developer analysts and general business users. But I also can't see how this product is competitive at this price with only this functionality.
