A lot of people want a step by step guide with easy to understand rules and clear steps.
I read those types of guide books when I got started and many exist. When I tried to follow them in real life they missed so glossed over so many other problems or situations that can come up. The knowledge of local rules and past experiences and sound judgement was lacking. I found the best way to learn was from conversations in coffee shops / outside auctions from people who have been doing this for years.
This book tries to copy that style with a focus around specific topics that come up. Raw knowledge, warts and all.

I'm curious about your point of view. What is your take on these.
- If someone posts something in your forum. Can you legally repost in twitter saying.. so and so just posted?
- When you post in a public forum do you automatically assign the copyright as public domain by virtue of where you posted and who can see it?
- Facebook owns all of the content you post (pictures/posts/videos). Doesn't this apply to all/most sites with user generated content?

My secret was I didn't write more than 5% of the book. 95% came from discussion posts written over the years on one of my website forums.
I still get orders.. I'm still in the top 500 small business / real estate books in canada. This was written in the 2012 and lives on.
I would encourage everyone to publish at least one book. But don't actually write it yourself that's insane amount of work for the expected return.

A next step could be for the artist to sue the police department for unliceased music. Create a story and it might become a national story.

What I do is put my database on a droplet and my files on another and it can handles millions of requests. Put them on the same machine and I need to increase ram higher than the cost of multiple small droplets.
If you ever reach those limits consider setting up a load balancer.
