I also found this course to be a great resource!


This is genuinely cool, but, just curious, why not use an ad-blocker like uBlock?


Thanks! uBlock works great when I’m on the PC, but not so great on my iPhone unfortunately. I’ve tried running Pihole and AdGuard servers too, but they don’t do well against YouTube ads. The small additional benefit of having my own UI is that I’m not distracted by channels that I’m not subscribed to, and just presented with a chronological list of videos from the channels I want to follow.


The Mandelbrot one is really cool too (click to start)

> If their website is a core part of their business, it's enormous - they're getting the peace of mind that if anything happens they have someone reliable they can call to get things fixed.

Good point! This is kind of what I was thinking: since they are a software company, the value of $1000/month is like you never have to worry about your company suddenly breaking.


> You've been doing it for a few months, so you have an idea of how disruptive it is, and having done it for free, the thought of $1000 for doing the same thing may sound nice now, but be sure to extrapolate it out another 6 months or so of being tethered 24x7 to work, and price it based on how you're going to feel then, not now.

Good point. Perhaps I can charge $1500 instead.


Thanks! This is a great idea.


Hey, yep I'm in the US. Thanks! Yeah I feel like more explanation is probably better.


FWIW, I also couldn't find it at first. Took me like a minute to find it.


That can't be right if, according to OP, the first result was a reddit post from six years ago, yet the date according to Google was Jan 11, 2020. So the first time Google saw that page would likely have been the day it was published.


RIP. One of the best drummers and lyricists of all time from one of the best bands of all time.
