tvirellion Show HN: I'm building a game for the Nintendo GameBoy

Very cool. Not sure this was meant to happen, but at one point I did a double jump over a wall and then just started to continuously fall and it never stopped.

tvirellion Ask HN: Time tracking software with punch in/out feature?

We are a team of 4. 2 owners and 2 employees. Our employees are paid hourly. They punch in at 8AM and out at 5PM (give or take time, or overtime if needed). We need to track their punch time to pay them their hourly rate. We also need to track their task time to bill for the work they do. Sometimes they work on things that are internal and are not billed out. Price range isn't a major deal. We are flexible in that aspect. I am actually a programmer and could do this custom, but we have 0 time. We are extremely busy, just hired on a new employee to keep up with work and are looking for a solution ASAP. We use quickbooks for billing and payroll, so integration into that would be a plus but not necessary. If we can't find anything, I will plan on building it. Just looking for something to work NOW! Harvest is great, but doesn't do punch time. Thanks.
