    Thank you for doing that. We're all better off with people who use their good fortune to help others in need.

    It's mentioned in the article (reference to Tupac song)

    Agreed - quite a shock to realize the type of person who is now in charge (haven't kept up to date on leadership here)

    Funny how serious / loner type people often open up when you ask them to help spot your bench press. At least that's been my experience, that moment of them helping you out at your…

    Growing up always thought about the thought experiment of how aliens would treat us compared with how we treat our fellow sentient beings in the animal kingdom (I couldn't find a g…

    What startup deliberately builds back doors to siphon away customer funds with the knowledge of only the founders, and deliberately misleads internal finance folks. Who "lends" cus…

    Nice but this would be better as an app with notifications.. hard to remember to return daily to a website

    Ask HN: Landing page for non technical founder?

    I have to get a landing page up for a new startup idea (consumer service). It's a biz I'll get folks to do for clients, so no coding required. What's a good landing page builder a …

    We're meant to be the new product guys and come up with the new ideas, asking users to come up with new product suggestions is a recipe for a product that does a lot and not well. …

    Good to see real numbers in these sort of articles.. But let’s face it - users are never going to tell you what they need...or what you should build. Shouldn’t they have spent more…

    Nice write up. Interesting how you discovered a different use case with the tech and ran with it

    Good question - we see a lot of value in our tool, hence are leaning towards paid rather than free plans ala basecamp or zendesk. We're also bootstrapped so really focussed on brin…

    Thanks for the feedback, yes agree about having a way to export data. Luckily we have that built in but have to implement the "not allow them to do further data entry" part..

    Hi HN, we're developing a new analytics tool for app developers which uses paid plans, each with a free trial. Any recommendations on whether to ask for credit card at start (requi…

    As a splitforce user this is pretty cool.. biggest issue is having to wait for conclusive results, whatever speeds this up and auto prunes away the losing options is welcome.

    Good point about Steam. The community part is more important than the visual identity. Actually the avatar as a 2d icon or profile pic could do ok. Like in all the fb games.

    I think also minecraft abstracts the detail, allowing you to use more imagination.
