sanmak··on Show HN: nwtb - a site for discovering new music on YouTube
Getting the first few views on YouTube for a not-so-well-known channel can be tough, and you have built a platform for a noble cause. But how you'll get the first few views consistently is a question in itself. Happy building, mate.

sanmak··on Show HN: Napkin – Build back-end functions in the browser
App looks great! great work guys! Few questions:

- Are you guys deploying a separate project in vercel for every user or using shared project among all?

- What's the security mechanism for storing environment variables? is it in vercel itself?

- Any plans for typescript support?

- Intellisense was not working for an installed package. It'll be great if it can!

sanmak··on I Miss the Old Internet (2019)
OP here: I didn't thought that this story will blow up. That's great.

To clarify, I didn't wrote the article https://www.sffworld.com/forum/threads/i-miss-the-old-intern.... A guy named Jonathan Scott Griffin wrote it. I tried to find him because I want to send him a message that I have posted his article on HN. I found his medium profile https://medium.com/about-me-stories/about-me-jonathan-scott-... (not sure if it's him).

sanmak··on Show HN: Enjoy HN in a fresh new way
Hey mate, thanks for sharing the previous launch link.

In this launch, i have improved the design and incorporated feedbacks and suggestions received from the community.

And i read that we can launch our product on HN twice, considering we are not spamming and should have some improvements from the last launch.

Happy to know more about it.

About Page Link: https://hn.boxpiper.com/about

Box Piper Hacker News aggregates news with a focus on computer science, technology and entrepreneurship, etc. from https://news.ycombinator.com/ and presents it in a much better way.

Stories are presented in a card image layout, which helps users to understand the relevance of an article and whether is it worth reading or not.

The top 10 stories are presented in a story mode similar to social media sites such as Snapchat/Instagram/WhatsApp/Facebook user stories. Also stories is bifurcated in two parts, top 10 and others. Those who wants to focus only top stories of the day, can use it.

HTTP links are highlighted with a sign, which indicates that the website loads over an insecure connection. It may redirect to an HTTPS connection, but user discretion is required.

A user profile page with recent activities is displayed which helps users to understand more about the author who publishes a story.

Right now, only 100 stories are presented but it'll extend in the future along with the source of News channels.

Keep Reading.

sanmak··on Tesler’s Law
Tesler’s Law, also known as "The Law of Conservation of Complexity", states that for any system there is a certain amount of complexity which cannot be reduced.

No matter which side you choose, complexity just doesn’t go away. All processes have a core of complexity that cannot be designed away. The only question is what handles it: "the system", or "the user".

By creating a control, the designer is making a choice, saying to the user in effect, “You handle this.” But if the system has to handle the complexity, it means all kinds of decisions have to be made for the user — your defaults have to be smart, and god help you if you get them wrong.

- Medium Article: https://odannyboy.medium.com/controls-are-choices-7de90363d0...

I tried to follow some of the design law's in https://hn.boxpiper.com/, but after reading these, there's a lot of improvements required.

Hi Guys, I’m not sure whether it’s a right forum or not but sharing it here!

I created a telegram bot that essentially aggregates Covid Resources information from the Internet to help you. It’s for India only.

https://t.me/CovidResourceBot https://web.telegram.org/#/im?p=@CovidResourceBot Either of the Telegram link will work(Telegram Issue).

Check and suggest improvements that can help more. Spread it with people for help.

A humble attempt to serve humanity through some kind of automation.

sanmak··on Ask HN: What should be the order of a SaaS-Product launch: HN/PH/Reddit/Twitter?
Got your point. Quite valid. But getting the ideal customer is a challenge and these platforms can help with the reach. What's your thought on getting customer(considering the immediate acquaintance is not an ideal customer) for an online product?

Great answer mate. Quite funny with Ruby though.
sanmak··on Should I implement email verification during sign up?
