Re:How to Start Running
on Saturday April 02, 2016 @04:38PM (#11413304)
Good on you! Similar story here - 6 years ago I lost 100 pounds through better diet and running. Started with Couch to 5k also. Since then, I've run 15+ marathons, and even a few ultras. I'm the healthiest I've ever been, and have never felt better. Plus, I'm setting a much better example for my kids than I was previously. Now they're really starting to get into running too, and have been doing some of the shorter kids races.

The site DOES have an SSL cert (https://bankdata.io). It doesn't force you over to https until you're on a page that actually requires it (signup, login, the API).

Yes, I've worked with Accuity before. They've very proud of their data, and charge an arm and a leg for it. We work with a group that maintains this data independently of the published fed directory.

We're not pulling the data from the fed site, so there is no issue with the use of that data. We work with a group that maintains this data independently of the published fed directory.

Agreed. I was actually never that excited about the name. I worked with a designer on the app, and the name was her idea.

I would guess they didn't want to reveal anything about their plans before the announcment yesterday, which is why they were kind of vague about the whole thing. Yes, I'll just rename the app (not sure to what yet), and resubmit.

Thank you. I'm actually not upset about the situation, I just found it an interesting enough situation to share.

It had been on the App Store for about a year.
Last week Apple asked me to remove my app from the App Store. Now I know why.

This is a great idea - add me to the list, I could definitely use the extra storage space!
Re:Does open-sourcing your product automatically destroy your business...

I don't necessarily mean that the business would have to go to a fully-paid model, just that they will have to find some other way of adding value to their product, be it support, training, or add-on features or services.
If this type of business model doesn't match with what you want to be doing, then maybe open sourcing your product isn't the right move for you.
