    @DownPW of course. As I mentioned in the first post, Sudonix isn’t going anywhere. It’ll continue to be free as it always has been.

    @phenomlab of course, to be recognised is fantastic. @phenomlab said in Ch..ch..ch..ch..changes!: Sadly, no. Web crawlers and scrapers are often JS based and read text only, so styles don’t have any bearing. I’ve read mixed things about this, but no that does make sense, it was something I read a many years back when using Wordpress.

    @Madchatthew True. I think this is the reason as to why most Open Source projects are abandoned because they are not sustainable in the long-term.

    @qwinter very well put. Great points and I can certainly align with these. I personally don’t see no university as a barrier to progression. My old boss said that he’d take preference with anyone who had a degree because of their “ability to think logically” (I kid you not). I said “well, you hired me and I don’t have a degree…”. He paused for a moment realising that he’d literally dug himself a hole and fell in it. He then said “ah yes, but you’re an exception”. “Exception” or not - it’s still a bigoted reasoning mechanism, and elitist to put it mildly. Class distinction springs to mind here.

    Just coming back to this thread for review (as I often do), and it looks like Webdock have increased their available offerings - some are extremely powerful, yet very competitive from the pricing perspective. [image: 1692559685163-7cf9a928-ac21-44fe-99c6-90439030d631-image.png] 10 CPU cores, plus 20Gb RAM? Well worth a look (and the asking price) - there’s also a fixed IP which is hugely beneficial. Clearly, this is well beyond what most people will want to spend - it’s more of an example (but interestingly, Sudonix runs on something not too different from the above). However, not all that glitters is gold - just have a walk through the benchmark report I found below and you’ll see a huge difference between Heztner and Webdock https://www.vpsbenchmarks.com/compare/hetzner_vs_webdock That being said, the amount of HTTP requests that Webdock handles in relation to Hetzner is superior - @DownPW you might want to have a look at this - there’s a free 24 hour trial… [image: 1692560710486-5203639b-2f62-47e6-b87b-37580ce5deae-image.png]

    @downpw I’m inclined to agree with the self-development - and the point you make about the lack of certification being seen as a barrier to enter professions. @downpw said in Experience vs Certification - who wins?: Because even without experience, if you have an iron will, you can be better than someone who has certification. With more work and effort, certainly, but does it matter? This is an interesting statement because I knew of several people years ago whom obtained MCSE accreditation, but had never sat in front of a real-life scenario before where they had to fix something - hence, the term, “Paper MCSE”. Essentially, this involves reading a book, then going to do the exam. Some people have that capability where they can retain a bulk load of information, and use that to easily pass an exam - yet have no practical experience. To me, it’s easy to identify these people. They can give you a text-book answer, but have no ability to prove it physically.
