Does this mean purchasing power is stronger in the EU so more ppl will to afford it? Less TAM? What’s the reasoning behind this?
Ilya · イリア@ilyamiskov
As always, in the EU the new Macbook Neo costs €699 and not $599. Oh and it comes with no charger in the box 🙂🙃🙂🙃🙂🙃

@GergelyOrosz @Pragmatic_Eng It's so refreshing to read something non AI generated .
English
That article is probably my single most impactful one - and predates @Pragmatic_Eng
Did a few follow-ups over the years, and expanded the concept globally, with numbers: newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/trimodal
As with everything in life, do your research, make a plan, then work hard and you can make it

I’ve met so many software engineers in Europe who assumed the same (“no way anyone in EU can make more than €100K/yr)
Then read my article on the Trimodal nature of dev salaries, realized which companies to apply to, and broke in there. This article: blog.pragmaticengineer.com/software-engin…

The worst part is that this kind of salary is effectively unreachable for 99% of European software engineers. If they're lucky, they get to negotiate up to €80k at the end of their career. Unlikely. They're extremely competent. Capable. Impactful. But they end up making €40k.

@LakeAustinBlvd @Cloudflare @efalcao Building on @Cloudflare Workflows at Midbound.cloud (via CF for Startups). Workers, KV, DOs are central to everything we're doing. (~600req/s) Any chance a founder who lives and breathes this stuff could snag a desk in the Lisbon office? Happy to trade war stories 👀

@smakosh @ycombinator I mean you don't need YC and consequently YC doesn't want you.
English
We just got rejected from @ycombinator
Here's what we built without them:
→ ~$600K ARR (see link in the replies)
→ Profitable since month 6
→ 210+ paying customers
→ 887 GitHub stars
→ 200+ AI models, 25+ providers, one API
→ 2 co-founders, both part-time
YC would've been great. But we're not waiting for permission to keep building.
Onward 🫡

This post made my realise that the problem with EU bureaucracy are Europeans themselves
Some of these people are willing to die for the regulations and see absolutely nothing wrong with me having to start a "j.d.o.o." that operates with a limit up to 1.000.000€ per year
Saying I should just pay 1500€ per month on my current non existing profit
Credit to the anomalies and people that actually wanted to help

I can’t tell you how personal this feels right now. I just launched my first watch model and somehow, 10 pieces sold out immediately. Being a law-abiding citizen, I started researching how to open a company, and in my country, we have something called a “paušalni obrt”, which loosely correlates to a one-person business that deals with a “craft” of sorts, perfect for me, up to 60000€ per year Today, I literally realized that I cannot open that “obrt” because I am not a licensed watchmaker, so I have to open a company, where I need start-up capital and pay way more in taxes. Also, you can’t even start a company without first being unemployed for a month, essentially not having the healthcare that my parents have been paying for 40+ years with their 50%-taxed paychecks. When a gypsy gets free healthcare simply on merit. The EU is so disappointing at times.

App idea:
Chrome plugin that hides AI replies.
It analyzes each reply, scores them from 1 to 10, and allows me to set a confidence threshold to determine whether a reply is from AI or not.
I'd pay $19/month so I don't have to guess which humans are pretending to be a human.

@ellie_huxtable The auth services sell you on "security is hard" but then you're debugging their systems, working around their limitations, and paying per-user anyway. If you can write a CRUD app, you can handle sessions and password hashing.
English
@ellie_huxtable JS has the lowest barrier to entry.
I honestly think it's a noob problem. I've managed auth for 500+ mauapps twice now with complex billing and team management... rolling our own was actually less painful than dealing with third-party providers.
English
what is it about the js ecosystem that makes people pay for someone else to manage auth
