Yeah thank you for your comment -- there are tons of people out there who need that kind of help, I have known some of them as well (maybe not as closely as in your profession!) and the us mental health system is not adequate My point wasn&

You know, you make an interesting point. I think you're referring to the same thing that the author is referring to. On the left side of the political spectrum, It's not a single phenomena though, I think you can break it down int

Article is a massive pain to read without paragraphs.

This is a freemium product. There's an enterprise upgrade that costs about 10k per year I believe. It's nice though, I use it on my site.

ideas: 1. Create content that can't be scraped. I'm not sure exactly what your "content" is in this case, but images can be watermarked, text can be given lots of references to your own brand and service, ect. 2. Submit

Disagree with the overall sentiment. If judges make decisions which don't represent the mandate of their constituents, they can/should be removed. See the Brock Turner judge in the SF bay area. Glad he's gone! That said, you

If anyone else here on HN is a fan of talking about what "makes sense" in the context of elder scrolls, I'm a big fan of /r/TESlore on reddit. Everything from explanations like the above, to how specific enemy group

I think that the barrier to entry to accepting bitcoin or cryto payments in general directly can be fairly high, depending on the ecosystem. It's been intimidating to me. I'd love to see a collection of crypto tutorials to get sta

I think they all seem to have a pretty scientific explanation. Don't we see research on meditation pop up here almost every other week? I guess I'm pretty firmly in the atheist-materialist camp here. If you don't mind me aski

Hey Zeroday, I agree with point 5 and 4, it's a bit of a bandwagon. However the article doesn't contain the quote you mentioned in point 3. Also, the only reported death due to Theranos that I can find is the sad death of the Chie

It's a terrible quote. Apple PR is going to be pissed with that guy.

It's an interesting idea. I recently went through drawabox so I gave this app a try, but it's poor execution — basically unusable for me. I think I agree that a fixed deployment would probably be more stable and usable.

Yeah, that doesn't make any sense to me either. I think it sounds like the complaint is actually that they failed to build out features that enabled easier moderation and better verification (mentioned a paragraph later). My understand

Wow. Can someone pull a Hacker News and explain to me why I'm allowed to be super pessimistic about this result? I want to believe.

Honest question: Why would Obama be a good bet? Or is this comment a joke?

On a meta-level, I wonder if this writer was paid for their work to create the article? If you haven't seen it yet, Nautil.us has a very spotty record of paying their workers over the last year at least. https://nwu.org&#x2F

For issue (1), the articles I've seen suggest that the vast majority of people just don't do this. Certainly some do, but I don't see why a couple bad actors invalidate a scheme which can work for most of the population. I do

This is a great landing page, pricing scheme, launch, ect. – all for a book where they haven't finished writing it yet! Talk about validating demand. Would love to see them do an indiehacker interview after the fact...

I totally borked the title. This is the book I was thinking of: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014DUR7L2

That's exactly what I took away from the article too. Seems like an underrated piece of pricing advice.

Don't read the Dale Carnegie book, read "SPIN Selling" by Neil Rackham and the book "Getting to NO" <- best book on negotiation I've ever read.

Why do you say that there's no meaningful ROI? I know a lot of marketers and advertisers who have built great businesses off of Facebook Ads. Agree that we need to improve the quality of ads across the board.

Yeah, and the top level domain redirects to google.com the DNS registrar is the same one the Google uses, and WHOIS says the owner is Google. I guess it's just a quiet launch of a Google service, probably beta-ing it with the YC crowd.

I agree. It is an offensive comparison, and being offended is a personal view. Misunderstanding what the author wrote is not a personal view or opinion, it's just ignoring the facts. Ironically, that "facts as a personal view&quot
