I’m a Blogstatic user already! Mainly to add blogging alongside existing Carrd sites. Nice and simple!

There is! HeySummit is really nice.

While I agree with some of the tactics here (make a twist on similar ideas, contact businesses, buy a business, brush up an existing product you built) I'm going to suggest an alte…

I'd be happy to brainstorm some marketing ideas to help with monetization. It sounds like a great product that just needs some clearer messaging.

I love sleeping on my side but you're right, it causes back, neck, shoulder, chest issues from being curled up all night. The best thing I found was to invest in a great firm mattr…

What kinds of things do you enjoy building? The best side projects play to your advantages. Definitely try to sell some existing side projects on SideProjectors or Borderline.biz -…

If you sit quietly and think for a few minutes, where is the pressure coming from? Is it the constant demands from colleagues? Is it the responsibility? Is it coming from yourself?…

There are SO many things you can do before you need any technical skills * Research the problem you are trying to solve, read and analyse ridiculous numbers of forum threads on wha…

Building a niche product sounds mostly enjoyable and seems like a happier, less stressful lifestyle. What's the person doing the startup working towards? A happier life? Why not ju…

Before you build anything, see if you can pull a Slack community together. All you need is a landing page to test this out. If you can't find 20 people to start with, then building…

You should mention it. Suggest alternate color schemes - at least at work. There are probably other color blind people that struggle and say nothing. For boardgames and to generall…

When you are burned out - it's not possible to properly give yourself to even the most interesting opportunities. Trying to find something new is still ignoring the actual problem.…

Currently it doesn't make sense to use it for transactions with it changing wildly from one hour to the next which is a shame. I will be glad when it settles down. However I have i…

I bought BTC to use as currency for transactions not as an investment. It should be used for that purpose. MLM only has one purpose - to recruit others into it. I don't ask other p…

Carbohydrates is a term that groups sugars, starches & fibre together. There are simple carbohydrates (breads, cereals, desserts and other man-made carbs) and complex carbs (fruit,…

It sounds like you're targeting new freelancers. Yet it is existing freelancers that understand the pain you are trying to solve. It looks like you have 5-6 average tools in one pa…

If it was me, I would call and get straight on to their finance / billing team. Just chase it until they realise that paying is the easier option. Not in an angry way, more just st…

You can't say you will find the best job for someone and then magic up a contract with every company they want to apply to. Why would a company pay for a candidate with an agency f…

They do exist however, there are difficulties in this business model in that the candidate rarely wants to pay.

Even small companies use software that costs multiple thousands of dollars a year.

I would recommend not to compete on price. By all means position yourself as more affordable but if you go specifically after cheap customers there is no loyalty there. They will a…

Hey HN, As it's the last day for YC applications I thought I would launch Office Hours Cards. It's a card deck to help you prepare for an accelerator interview or startup pitch. It…
