I also choose this guys wife!

Please don't Reddit HN. We serious here

As much as I agree with you (and upvoted your comment on principle), an infrequent well-placed well-timed joke can be tolerated. This was that joke.

I've certainly taken my own chances with Monty Python quotes in the HN comments.

> Word-of-mouth. If that worked, why would anyone give up their business to VCs ever? Having VCs is not a fun place to be. It is a horrible situation to find yourself in (unless you are the VC, I suppose). There was a time where you could rely on word-of-mouth, but those days are behind us. Everyone and their brother is vying for word-of-mouth attention nowadays. The noise is too great. It takes vast resources to emi…

Two reasons: 1. Some businesses can't just be built from nothing-but-software-and-server. You need warehouses, logistics, and all sorts of other fixed costs that exist before you can start recouping your investment. Not everyone has the money to start such a business, despite otherwise having the ability. 2. People aren't entirely stupid. If something's a scam, con, or otherwise a detriment to human flourishing, they…

RE: Plausible, you should have checked their compliance and terms and conditions after checking demo and using it. There are some gotchas to be aware of (lack of DPO, being one red flag). Going umami, matomo would have been cheaper and safer.

Feature request: Can we have multiple profiles? So the user can do one set of photos with one girl, another set when with another girl.

Maybe have the app recognize nearby Bluetooth devices so that nobody gets hurt if the user forgets to change profiles before meeting.

Wife gets an alert if you accidently swipe right on ex-wife. Modernized Minesweeper.

Throw in a timer too, which will be reported as stats to wife :-D

With milliseconds precision.

Hahaha SwiftUI and havent made a start on android - it would be compose No server, everything is on device except for firebase analytics

I assume this was a project for getting experience with SwiftUI, but it was a missed opportunity to get experience with KMP and being able to release Android and iOS at the same time.

I've never heard of Kotlin Multi Platform until now. I've already discounted half a dozen multiplatform solutions, could you perhaps "sell me" on KMP? I absolutely love other Jetbrains products.

Aw I actually gave a tip but the app didn't say thanks :( Also when the Settings menu pops up the underlying photo changes.

dara, thank you so much! I appreciate it more than you know (so does my wife haha)

You're welcome! Congrats on the successful launch

This made me realise that I want Tinder but for arbitrary content and able to be shared via links - photos, restaurants, date and times, or whatever. Create a Google Drive folder for your trip photos, sync it with OAuth, send a link to your group chat, and share the ones that everyone liked.

StumbleUpon2? > StumbleUpon was a website, browser extension, toolbar, and mobile app with a "Stumble!" button that, when pushed, opened a semi-random website or video that matched the user's interests, similar to a random web search engine.[1] Users were able to filter results by type of content and were able to discuss such webpages via virtual communities and to rate such webpages via like buttons. StumbleUpon was…

I loved StumbleUpon but I have this odd feeling that it was sort of the first augur in my life for what algorithmic feeds would do to my attention span. But it really was a cool thing, in those last days of the pre-social media web, to find all those neat little passion project sites.
