Super elegant vision. Would love this to gain traction.

Thank you ! I loved this game, sensations are exactly the same.

They must already have some sort of index to power siri web search. I hope they find some space for disruption and create enough differenciation because I’m not sure at all that people value privacy enough to switch

Does the decentralized approach turn into a cost benefit compared to centralized solutions ?

Tldr; most people dont recharge them

Thx !

Thx !

Website = a couple of static pages + images + a few forms embeds running on airtable

At this stage I would focus on understanding What people really do and what happens after one month so they drop off by interviewing a lot of them

Features we wish we had: -1 tap interaction with native modal views (survey/actions) -in-app chat for support with automatic translations -send WhatsApp/Instagram/SMS -push notifications

Love the simplicity, would love to have an index of apps like this one : simple, well executed. Congrats

Need for entertainment and trends can be user problems. I would argue that Snapchat and the likes solve a user problem : boredom and need ton express without leaving trails...

Very cool, I couldn't find in the text what is the scale of the picture ?

Awesome !

wasting time is being persistent for bad reasons

Very fun :-) thank you

Seen like that my reaction was a bit too simplistic :)

Just eat normally (fruits, vegetables, meat/fish from time to time, not too much bread...) for a long period of time and you'll get to your normal weight. All the rest is bullshit.

I had to click three links to discover what Varnish is. So either I'm dumb or blind either there is no single description of what the product does on the home page copy.

Hello Bordeaux, Ici Rennes.

LeBonCoin spent like 2M€ in adwords the year they started. I've seen them grow like crazy. I really doubt someone can compete head to head with them today. That would need to be very disruptive or very niche.

Hi Johnathan, they deliberately don't want to provide email alerts or even a decent search because that would break their rather excellent business models (users spend hours browsing pages of listing rather than searching which drives page views and ads impressions). They killed a site similar to yours a few years ago (leboncoinrss or something along the lines I believe). I wouldn't try to base a business on something which hijack the user experience they have created. On my spare time I'm scrapping their site to do some data analysis and so far despite the traffic I generate no problem. Let me know if you want to discuss that.

Question : how did you get the salt and algorithm used ? By retro engineering the code ?

So true. So frustrating.

you're right, I should have said a significant or fairly high level of expertise.

I think the only worthwhile argument is the native look and feel which is extremely hard to emulate using HTML5 (although not unfeasible, see http://pattern.dk/sun or sencha's fb client)

But on the other side it is also very costly to build multiple versions of an app on different native technologies and there HTML5 has an obvious advantage.

Speed is not much of an issue for most of the apps, hardware accelerated CSS can give extremely interesting results (again see http://pattern.dk/sun or FB client)

But overall I agree that doing well with HTML5 requires a good level of expertise.

I share the view that Javascript can be a very universal learning environment (even if in itself that may not be the greatest langage to learn)

You're right, there's some programming you can't do inside of a browser, I was just forgetting all this low level stuff which happens behind the browser :-)

Sorry if that's not directly related to the post. I don't really get the story behind Rasberry PI. Is the goal to make something cheap enough so that it spreads widely ? Otherwise there are plenty of platforms that would be better for learning programming starting with a simple browser no ?
