Glad to hear you would find this useful. Good call about data security, you can read more about how we protect our data here https://www.workast.com/security/ We use MongoDB Cloud to manage our database with encryption on transit and at rest. Allowing users to encrypt the data with their own keys will mean that text search at least wont be possible (at least at scale)
Would love to chat more if you are interested guillermo [at] workast . com
Another productivity founder joining the discussion. Congratulations on your launch! I built https://www.workast.com with similar motivations, but our go-to-market strategy was to focus on teams that use Slack to communicate, and we still do today. While there is tons of competition out there, the market is big enough for all of us to share. It is a bumpy ride but today we are a profitable business. All the best!
While everything that has been said about Tether seems valid, not sure what is true and not, it is definitely suspicious. But after reading all comments, I am wondering, isn't the whole financial system also a house of cards? Can we talk about the amount of debt on student loans, credit cards, house loans, those ridiculous low interest rate, the amount of $usd that is being printed and giving it away ?
And all of those financial instruments are controlled by the same people that have been "cracking down on stablecoins/crypto"...
So my question is, who can we trust? we were born with banks around us so we kind of trust them, but can you imagine the level of corruption that existed when they were being created? how many financial institutions disappear with everyones money...
We are just at the early days of crypto, there is people trying to make good things and people trying to make a quick win taking advantage of the current status.
Feature request: Allow to connect TradingView alarms to this. TV alarms allows for webhooks to be called. If you guys allow that to be a trigger for the rules, then you don't have to worry about adding indicators. TV has by far the best collection of indicators, strategies, etc, so why not just supporting the alerts?
Alternatively, maybe somehow support TV indicators? Not sure if "pine" (I think is the name of the language) is open source.
No problem! I think an option to disable "auto-save" will just fix this for me. Because I always have to "wait" to press Run. I would rather wait after pressing Run.
Saving / Deploying after every keystroke is not really what I want. I rather have a Save button so I have time to fix any errors because sometimes it just hangs there for a while saving/deploying something that I don't really need. In this topic, maybe seeing something more other than a progress bar, so I know that something is actually happening.

My opinion as someone who is running a SaaS business:
- Annual contracts are better than month-to-month, because you will get a customer for a year in most cases, extending your LTV
- Customer choose annual not only for the pricing discount but speaks to their commitment with your solution. I take it as a great product market fit indicator.
- Your price should be aligned with your competition. You can increase prices for new users but don't increase the price for your existing pay customers.
- Offer your monthly customers the option to upgrade to annual as well
I was born in Argentina, I understand the pain. People that don't have credit cards is mostly because:
a. they are not in the financial system, meaning they get paid in cash, etc
b. they get paid too little or they have debt so their score is low and therefore they don't get access to a card
Your solution seems to be more suitable for people that can actually access a credit card but they find them "hard" so they can opt for something like your solution.
My suggestion is that the project should be open source, like Electorn or RN, otherwise will be hard to get adoption.
Revenue streams ideas:
1. Build a deployment tool, where you take care of building the apps for the different OS, basically bridge the gap from code to final binary
2. Offer support / consulting hours "from the experts"
3. Force some kind of ad/watermark/screen on the app where you can see the name of the project and website. In order to remove this you will need a key or build the project using the service I described in point 1.
Happy to chat and discuss in more details. Good luck!
Another suggestion: Send me the posts in the front page that have more than 100 (or any amount) votes. Or maybe a daily message of yesterdays front page.
great idea! I personally love the keypoints part, I like to stay updated with news but not so much read every single article, so this is great for me. My feedback:
- Work a bit more on the design, specially on mobile. On my iPhone 6s Plus, when I open the page I can only see 1 article, what I like about HN or Reddit is that you can quickly scan with your eyes what you are interested on, as a list. If that is your target audience then you should probably give a similar experience.
- Not a bit fan of the whole "popup" to see the bullet points, I would hide and show them under the title
- I would add an icon to click directly to the reddit comments next to the button
- I think this is a great site to be turn into an mobile app
Step 1: Apply for the work and holiday visa for Australia. Gives you 1 year of working rights.
Step 2: Arrive to Sydney and look for a job. There is a lot of demand out there so ONLY start working for a company that can sponsor your after 6 months. (457 visa)
Step 3: Work hard play hard and get sponsored (company pays for it, its super easy)
Step 4: Stay in Australia for as long as you want, save money and then travel the world.
Hi there, funny enough this idea came up helping my wife with her online store.
Yes, it is a hard problem and we are up for the challenge. Initially will be a hybrid of manual answers and automatic while we train the algorithms But with enough questions and multiple stores we should be able to have a very good knowledge base.
Imagine that you just made a purchase at an online store and you want to know how long is it going to take for you to get the product. That information is available on the site, somewhere. You can do that or you can open your favourite messenger platform and ask "hey how long does it take to get an order", just like you ask your partner what to get from the supermarket. It is a way people are use to communicate. The result is the same but the customer satisfaction is higher. The bot will be able to answer that kind of questions quickly without human intervention. Is more efficient for the customer and the company.
This is something that should probably be tested and see how people react. "chat bot" is something that is common for us but not for non-technical people and could actually hurt more than help.
The experience for the customer should be quite smooth and once the bot is not able to answer a questions something like "Let me get back to you about this" could mean that the questions is being redirected to a real human. Again these are assumptions and data will give us the real answer.
