#72Similar premise to my blog post: Take my app ideas ( https://austinhenley.com/blog/takemyappideas.html )
since you put this out in the world... i might try one
Re: Show HN: Don't let your billion-dollar ideas die
#73People are flooding this with deliberately horrible ideas for some reason. I assume the reason is that people are trash. Not really what I expected from HN.
one person can post several ideas with no limits....

#74Earlier quoted context omitted.
This would be super useful as a training set for automatically identifying ads in podcasts that contain non-ad content.
If you produced the podcast this would be trivial since you’d know the time stamps for the ad holes.
It'll penalize advertiser provided scripts more.

#75This is the HN equivalent of Boaty McBoatface. I love it.
lol
Re: Show HN: Don't let your billion-dollar ideas die
#76This is excellent. Some features to add (maybe): - voting - tagging / filtering / sorting - commenting? some way to let people meet around an idea? Is there some sort of moderation currently?
hey thanks !
just added voting feature, will add the rest as well
currently there is no moderation, i just made this as a fun project and didn't expect it to go this wild lol. will add it now

#77Can you add markdown support? I already submitted one with markdown (username 'runvnc') .. also maybe deal with longer entries like only show the first 250 characters in the box and the rest in a tooltip/hover or when you click up to 1000 characters or something. And then when you click you see the full idea and their contact info.
sure, will add it today.
thanks for the tooltip idea ! I added the basic "Read more" truncation but it was looking ugly so removed it. Tooltip sounds better

#78People are messing with it, but I really like the idea. I put my real idea there. It's one I really like but I just don't have the time or expertise to execute it. I really hope someone "steals" it.
thanks and glad you liked it :)
that's actually one of the main "idea" behind the website
Re: Show HN: Don't let your billion-dollar ideas die
#79Also can you ban people who post actual trash like binary files.
sure!
also just added a voting feature, will add content moderation as well.
