Working on Lunova — a QuickBooks Online app that you can create custom alerts via SMS/email such as when big deposits land, invoices go overdue, or vendor prices spike. Just cleared Intuit’s tech/security + marketing review (Took over 3 months... after building the MVP) and we’re now live on the QBO App Store. Feedback and feature requests welcome: https://uselunova.com
Pretty smooth once you respect the limits: 500 calls/min + 10 concurrent per realm. We run a per-realm token bucket and queue work; If you throttle and batch, you won’t hit 429s, but I talked to a few QB app owners and bigger apps tend to find it restrictive.

that's a ridiculous take and blinded by your own preferences... It's all content... and it's all trying to get "Eyes on content. For a long as possible."
"In the old days, the Olympics was a venue were aspiring athletes got to get a second chance of turning pro, or at the very least a way for them to get recognition for their hard work. Now in many cases, it is now a bunch of multi-millionaires feeding their somewhat narcissistic drives."
This entire sentence is ridiculous and inaccurate.
"I've grown unfond of this attitude. I most certainly don't own it. I have no IP rights to it at all. We're both being paid to solve different facets of the same problem."
If you are a dev on the team that owns that service then it's you and your team's responsibility to answer all of these questions... Even Org's SOP would end up reaching back to the team who owns the service if problem's arises...
Garry, I only have one ask (maybe two)!... Force them all to keep making those YC Office Hour videos lol! Even better, whoever your editing team is for your channel... add them to the team as well.
Yep, that's what i did. Every 15 min I would measure the sentiment of given topics, normalize the messy data and plot them. you can overlay this against a time series of price data.
Twitter also has a historic tweets api. It's more work, but you can backtest as well.
I built a similar tool. but I used twitter and tracked the sentiment of topics including stock and crypto. It's an interesting angle, if you'd want to pursue it.
There is somewhat of correlation between online sentiment & crypto price movements, there are a couple papers on the topic. However, it is quite difficult to trade against. I work on wall street (tech side) so this was mostly just past time activity.
Random, but along the same vein I worked on a side project which allowed people to create a paid bounty for answering a stackoverflow question. The way it worked was that you would create a question on stackoverflow, go to our website and pay for your bounty with the stackoverflow link, then when any random stackoverflow user answers your question and the answer is accepted, they can simply create and account, authenticate and we will send then their winnings.
I built a remedial MVP, but it worked. Lots of edge cases and concerns when it comes to handling money movement for multiple parties. If you ever look to expand your use case, that could be cool. I was willing to pay for a Kubernetes stackoverflow question that was killing me, so i built that.
The limiting factor was Operator attention and issues with an environment.
In a closed, mapped environment like a campus with minimal street crossings. The robot can make its way to the restaurant, get the delivery and make the delivery, with out operator input or attention… even if people block the robot, it can navigate around and interact. After a couple failed attempts, it alerts an operator and then manual action may occur.
Some situations were a bit more complicated. I’ve had to navigate 4 robots, all at street crossings with different types of traffic. The safe thing to do is, take care of them one at a time, even if a couple robots miss the light.
Once a crossing light changes and things look safe, we would just initiate the crossing. The robot can navigate on its own.
it's more of just a script a newer company will use to do the initial setup for laptops. Great starting point if you have security and preferred software before the new hire's first day.
