I edited the message and put the XXXX in place to not expose that info, but someone here already got it, yes it's summitto.com and I was looking for the link here on HN and it seems that it was removed, probably after this post.

No they mean you don't 'peak interest', you 'pique interest'. What would 'peak your interest' even mean?

You left it in farther down in the post, in case you wanted to edit it.

Thank you for reply !

I can not edit anymore, it seems that the software disable that option after some time or other event has passed.

I think the GP is referring to the “peaks” spelling which should have been spelled “piques”.
