this is exactly what Steve Jobs did after coming back from Next. Simplifying is very useful, especially in a big corp that want to be differentiated

Nice questions!

I use DeckSet since a lot of years, I find it easy to use and I love the result. I don’t care about multi platform because I’m doing my presentation on a Mac. I don’t care paying fair prices to software.

The only downside I found was the lack of customization offered.

I’ll look into the GitHub list, especially to the 2 others macOS apps

On macOS, I strongly recommend DeckSet[0]. It's a Keynote/Powerpoint from Markdown, especially valuable when you embed code in your presentations.

While I agree on your point, your comment made me smile as I’m reading HN using a mobile app

Ask HN: Should we use Lambda (Google Cloud Functions) for our API?

woogle — Wed, 02 May 2018 12:30:47 +0000

Hi HN,

I need you.

I'd like to know what is the current state of the art regarding the use of serverless paradigm for API endpoints.

Context: We currently use Google Cloud Functions for our API. Our startup is young, and just the 2 cofounders are working on it. Our product is a consumer iOS app. The backend is something we don't have a lot of time to dedicate yet. ~1k DAU ~5k Daily API calls, Traffic spread between US, Europe, East Asia, Australia

Over a classic webserver deployed on Heroku/EC2,

Pros

- easy to deploy

- easy to maintain

- easy to setup

Cons

- cold starts are becoming really long (~4/6 seconds)

- we setup a pgbouncer to connect to Postgres instead of a simple Pooling client (and it will be more complicated for geo dns?)

What do you think?
