    Has Moving to a Warm and Sunny Climate Made You Happier?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Isn't this a little bit a double moral standard. Do you only buy local produced products? How about your electronic devices? Is your phone made in China? How about your clothes? And even if you buy local, is the local producer also buying local resources? At the end of the day, you are still...

    AI Agent creation

    How can I identify and validate a niche for a micro SaaS while balancing a 9-to-5 job?

    IDEA SAAS / APPS FEEDBACK 
    This! And one thought you can take: find one that have very cheap infrastructure/server and running costs. Instead of offering subscriptions create some lifetime-deal. In some niche people will go crazy for this. When everyone else offers subscriptions in your niche and your are the one...

    Using Cursor AI Efficiently

    SAAS / APPS 
    I tested cursor and was blown away. But I'm not a dev more like a no/low-code dude with very basic knowledge. I could load up a boilerplate where I didn't understand 90% of the code in it and still create a working mvp. Did you test Windsurf Editor by Codeium ? For me, it is even better than...

    What about the Canary Islands? Temperature even in winter +/- 20 and the ocean temperature in the coldest months is still round about 18. Can’t say much to cost of living, quality of live etc. but I love the different islands for short holidays in Europe winter months to finally see some sun again.

    The WordPress vs. WP Engine Debacle - The Battle of Private Equity

    WEB DESIGN 
    Yes, it's not a 100% valid way to show things, but we can clearly see other big contributors. Also, it just supports the 40 hours a week vs 3,915 a week point. Do you know any company that "sells WordPress" and makes more than +10mio a year revenue that doesn't contribute, or at least is...

    The WordPress vs. WP Engine Debacle - The Battle of Private Equity

    WEB DESIGN 
    To make some things clear, I know the differences between WordPress.org / Wordpress.com / automattic. English is not my first language, so maybe I just messed it somewhere up. Yep, WP Engine is a hosting solution, but offering a slightly changed WordPress core with one important function...
