More like an anticipation piece imho. It really does serve the narrative of the article.

Stacktical | Blockchain Engineer & Smart Contract Developer | Worldwide, Paris, Tokyo | REMOTE, FULL TIME, https://stacktical.com/tge

Do you want to build the future of performance failure, outage and downtime compensation with us?

We're excited to welcome a Smart Contract Developer to the Stacktical team to further accelerate the development of our decentralised service level management platform on the Blockchain.

Our ambition?

Better align the interests of all application stakeholders in performance and non-performance situations, using more efficient, more inclusive and fairer Service Level Agreements (SLA) that don't need lawyers.

To achieve just that, our Decentralized SLA token, dubbed "DSLA", is designed to compensate users upon service levels violations while rewarding providers for their ability to maintain great service levels.

While we understand the emerging nature of the field and are open to considering creative ways to achieve our objectives, we're seeking someone with hands-on experience with Solidity Smart Contract development and administration on the Ethereum Blockchain platform, ideally through a combination of the Zeppelin framework, Oracles and the truffle tool.

To apply, please contact us at founders+me@stacktical.com with the subject “Working at Stacktical”!

For more information about the DSLA Token Generation Event please join us on Telegram at https://t.me/joinchat/GwbV2xHqt8JxK7zhV14bwA (there’s a secret link to our white paper in the group)

Many thanks for taking the time to consider this position.

Is this a remote-only position?

I agree with many of the responses here and it makes sense to design your applications around the database limitations... But at the end of the day, it's a service level management issue.

While it's easy to understand the bias to look for solutions without the aforementioned DBA, it's going to take a pretty significant, collaborative effort to define policies that works for all stakeholders.

The sooner the better! It's going to be a bit painful but I'd focus on addressing the root of the issue at hand.

My two cents :)

cf. Product Hunt global hackathon https://blog.producthunt.com/the-product-hunt-global-hackath...

We developed a continuous scalability testing technology that lets you meet the concurrency and throughput requirements of your microservices build, before they ship to production.

Our community uses this information to reduce the waste at the software, middleware and AWS level. e.g. configure Auto Scaling groups to scale upon reaching a custom ELB Target Trigger equal to your measured concurrency.

I wrote an article about this specific ELB use case a couple weeks ago, at https://medium.com/@stacktical/how-to-lose-money-with-the-ne...

Maybe it can give you some ideas.

LoFi hip hop beats generally. A good balance of punchy and relaxing.

Hey, hi! Thanks a tons for your feedbacks. Makes a lot of sense... Yes, your understanding is correct, that's exactly how it works :) I agree with your last comment; I do believe that it needs to be taken one step further to reach the MSP stage. If I had the time, I think I would add crypto to the sauce.

I expect bidders to see the same kind of opportunity. Wait & See!

Interesting. Is one of your customers looking for more DevOps help? I have a teammate looking for an opportunity.

Hi guys,

I sell it to focus on my startup. Pricemoji is an API for pricing products in emoji. I had this idea one night to build an emoji-driven transaction marketing platform, and https://pricemoji.com is the beginning of just that.

It's been feature on Product Hunt last November https://www.producthunt.com/posts/pricemoji and even commented by a Financial Times correspondent at some point (https://twitter.com/hannahkuchler/status/803348128174899200)

Would you buy it? How much would you price it? Any advice on how to properly pass the torch to someone willing to make it successful?

Thanks all, Cheers
