Lean $20 tech stack powers $10K MRR companies

Hanov's approach is a direct challenge to the "VC-backed over-engineering" culture, proving that modern developer tools and SQLite can scale to significant revenue without cloud complexity. Go and SQLite remain the gold standard for solo-dev performance and deployment simplicity, while moving high-volume LLM batch tasks to local hardware (RTX 3090) effectively eliminates the "token tax" for research-heavy features. Avoiding AWS or managed databases removes the "billing labyrinth" and provides a decade of runway for the price of one developer seat, proving technical simplicity is now a competitive advantage.
