Covid Boon for Superphysics

The Corona virus has caused lockdowns and so many startup events were cancelled.

Our main moneyless app actually gained a lot of users, as we had predicted.

However, we were running our servers on an AWS Activate Program that was set to expire this month when we really needed them to handle the influx of users.

This is because we had expected the crisis to start in 2019 and so we got the AWS credits for use in 2019 and not for 2020.

We were unable to move everything to another program (like Google Cloud Platform) because of the many things that were going on. It’s like Nature saying having the last laugh, saying no matter how much you accurately predict it, it will make things happen just a little bit outside your prediction.

This made us implement the following changes:

• We focus on long term sustainability instead of rapid scaling
• We have to work with Nature step by step instead of trying to make large innovations

We will use the time to focus on theory of Superphysics and pause our running app prototypes as we look for a cheaper hosting option.

Anyway, we’ve been preparing for the Crisis Years which were supposed to begin last year. So it’s a relief to know, that other than the timing, our efforts and decisions were correct!
