Pretty soon after starting to use it (as a Next Generation Sequencing data analysis framework), I noticed that if a task that is not in some way linked to an end goal, that task does not get started/executed. It sort of blew my mind and I felt strongly that my projects, perhaps even my life should be run and build exactly like that.

I'm using Auth0 for the user login, and my domain on there is "dwmartin41". That's a very odd message, but it's basically saying you're registering an account on my domain. I'll see if there's a way to override the message with something more sensible.
I understand where the message comes from, but it's an unusual message to get when registering what seems like a "first-party" account. If it's your domain and your app, they're in the same trust domain, so you could reasonably just trust it automatically. (Google doesn't prompt when you log into YouTube using your Google account, for instance.)

#44Hey HN! I've just launched my latest side-project, Intention. Intention's an app to help you achieve your goals. The idea is that you create a graph of goals/tasks (intentions), with your high-level goals at the top and actionable tasks at the bottom. That allows you to create a collection of actionable tasks you can work on, and to visualise how they relate to your high-level goals. Any feedback would be much apprec…
Looks really cool, congrats! What's your stack for the App + Webapp?

Sorry about that, I am aware of the issue and I'll try to implement a workaround asap. It's because Safari doesn't allow 3rd party cookies, which Auth0 relies on, by default. You can fix it by allowing 3rd party cookies.

I would suggest having a sensible DAG example in your flows on your homepage. Right now, you are not showing off your USP.
That's a good idea, I'll try to think of a nice example. I went with a tree, rather than a DAG, because I wanted to make the examples as simple as possible so as to not scare people off.
Also, do a "simple" example, and a "intricate" example, to show the range of possibilities. Let the user put their imagination in the middle.
Also-also, publish on F-Droid!

how about no. why would you design it that way?
Re: Show HN: Intention – DAG Todo App
#49It’s always amazes me how few of the task management tools out there have the concept of task dependencies (the core feature of this app). I use OmniFocus but even there I had to setup a custom view. Good luck with the app!
Same here, when I doing the initial research for Intention I found that a lot of people had had the same idea, but nobody had implemented it.

In general I think that tree/DAG based task managers will become a lot more popular as more people need to organise more tasks.
