Freddie111··on Show HN: Autotab – An AI-powered Chrome extension to create Selenium scripts
I was curious about the YC backing and realised that you're the founders of https://www.ztool.co. Did you pivot or is this a complementary prodcut to ztool? Would love to hear more about your journey :)
Freddie111··on Launch HN: Bloop (YC S21) – Code Search with GPT-4
Congrats on the launch! How do you plan to solve distribution if you're not integrating with IDEs anymore?
Freddie111··on Show HN: Automatically fix linting/code formatting issues in pull requests
cool project :) I think a pre-commit hook could solve any formatting issues before even getting pushed.
Freddie111··on Crypto Is Not Here to Stay
It would be interesting to see how the sentiment about crypto changed over time on HN. I'm sure there was time when people saw a lot of potential in crypto technologies. Subjectively, the sentiment has shifted completely towards negativity in the last 1-2 years.

What interesting projects could be built/are built on top of this?
Freddie111··on Ask HN: Shut down a startup despite strong traction?
We're preparing to shut it down or keep it running on low infrastructure costs. And that's why I've slowly started looking for my next job (and considered the startup prematurely as failed in the context of that post).
Freddie111··on Ask HN: What habits apps do you use? Why do you like those apps?
Since the beginning of mobile apps people tried to build habit apps. What works best for me is just sticking to the 4 simple rules around building lasting habits from the book Atomic Habits: 1) make it obvious, (2) make it attractive, (3) make it easy, and (4) make it satisfying.
Freddie111··on Airbnb will up its penalty for hosts who cancel last-minute from $100 to $1k
Now that I'm reading all these horrible experiences, I'm wondering why there isn't a review system for businesses where I can read about such issues? I guess Trustpilot has a rating for Airbnb, but it's not very well known. How else could we make other consumers aware of such cases?
