Brilliant comment! I like your Inception-style thinking.

Ugh. 1) Posted the ApplyHN on facebook, couple friends got accounts to support me thinking it would help. Accounts with no karma algorithmically don't matter, and they're super eas…

I love people pointing out holes in my idea. I think that's what makes HN great. Sadly, nearly all of my submissions received senseless negative comments that is not feedback on th…

I'm not the most experienced HN user but so far people have been quite rude to me around here even though YCs immense efforts to keep a positive vibe. Of course HN is like fifty ti…

Ouch.

Posted this on facebook, friends chose to support. It's obvious to everyone that accounts with no karma won't get anyone anywhere. But it's nice to have people rooting for you. Eve…

Thank you!

Well, this is awkward. http://remember.ai https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11483510

Me too! That's actually how we came up with Remember. We were spending so much time searching for stuff instead of finding :)

Conventional desktop and personal search is limited to keywords or exact dates. Humans are not great at remembering those. We're using IBM's Watson, Imagga and our proprietary algo…

Great argument, I'm convinced. Referencing Mt.Gox is a risky move, though :)

This is pretty cool. I've seen some startups try to tackle this (sorry don't remember the names) but I haven't seen someone actually make the search standardised. My recommendation…

The second strategy is very smart. Problem with that is sometimes you only have a narrow timeframe before some big name brand comes up with your idea and implements it in a really …

Thanks for your answer!

Hello HN, Hypothetically speaking: You're working on an idea that has the potential to become one of the most successful products in the world if built well. For the sake of argume…

Hahahaha actually I completely agree that for most situations running in stealth is highly disadvantageous. I'd explain why it seems to be the right choice for us but I'll save us …

Thanks for the advice, I'll try my chances. I believe in what I'm working on (as everyone else) but it'll kill me if I don't try when I have this narrow window of opportunity. Sadl…

Wow that sucks for your friend. Even though they managed to make it work, that could give way to some intense power-play. I hope his/her CEO is a great person who wouldn't resort t…
