France’s public procurement activity appears lower this year compared to 2025:
Could be temporary, but interesting to see considering how active the EU procurement market has been overall lately.
Most SaaS acquisition advice is always the same:
– SEO
– paid ads
– cold outreach
– content
But I rarely see anyone talk about something else:
government or enterprise contracts.
I’ve been digging into this space recently, and it looks like there are thousands of public opportunities where companies are literally looking for software solutions.
The strange part is:
almost no SaaS founders seem to consider this as a channel.
Is it because:
– the barrier to entry is too high?
– the process is too bureaucratic?
– or just lack of awareness?
Curious if anyone here has actually tried this route.
Is it viable for smaller SaaS products, or only for big companies?
idk if it’s just me but everything in supply chain feels like it’s on x2 speed lately 😭 like constant updates, tracking, changes, delays, fixes… and you barely catch up before something else shifts
how do people actually keep up without burning out? especially if you’re new or still learning
curious how y’all deal with it or if it gets easier with time
hi, I’ve been learning programming for a while and I want to start working with APIs, but I’m not sure what the best starting point is.
what I’ve done:
comfortable with basics (Python, working with functions, some small projects)
general idea of what an API is, but no hands-on experience yet
where I’m stuck:
there seem to be many directions (REST, HTTP concepts, authentication, frameworks), and I’m not sure what to focus on first to build a solid foundation.
what I’m looking for:
A practical learning path or order of topics
Suggestions for simple first projects using APIs
Common mistakes beginners make when starting with APIs
I’ve tried searching and found general explanations, but I’m looking for more concrete direction from people with experience.
thanks!
hey, I’ve been trying to become more disciplined with trading, but I keep running into the same issue. on slower days, I start forcing trades just to feel like I’m doing something, and that’s usually when I mess up. my strategy is pretty simple (key levels + fixed risk), so I don’t think that’s the problem. It’s more about execution. I often know when I shouldn’t enter, but I still do it anyway. how do you deal with this? do you set strict rules (like max trades per day), or is it more about building self-control over time?
not looking for shortcuts, just trying to be more consistent.
I’ve mostly worked with APIs as a consumer, and I’m trying to understand how people actually design them in real projects.
When you’re building an API from scratch, how do you approach decisions like: structuring endpoints (what becomes a resource vs a separate service), naming conventions and consistency across routes, keeping things “clean” as the project grows and more people contribute
Do you usually follow strict REST principles, or does it end up being more pragmatic based on team needs and deadlines?
