Last week of 2023, I built an HN TLDR site that summarizes Hacker News articles into 3-5 sentences — just something to try my hands on OpenAI APIs.

I want to build more features and add support for any RSS feeds too.

Nothing to make money out of, but something for my personal use.

I think having a single place to record all your transactions would be a good feature. And if they have a way to send receipts to customers via SMS/whatsapp, it would be a great.

It's a poorly written post. I think mostly written for SEO and traffic.

One thing that I didn't notice others here didn't comment about:

In the section where they write about xrange vs range in python 2 vs 3, they reference a piece of code supposedly written for py3 which isn't there.

xrange was fast in python 2 because it allows you to evaluate lazily, which is what range does in python 3.

So whatever benefits you got out of xrange is there in range.

We few people know it could be bypassed. But how will the millions of other users who know nothing about VPNs? Also what if Airtel blocks all these popular VPNs?

Also its not about if we can bypass it or not. It is about what is morally/ethically right and what is wrong.

Check out http://learnxinyminutes.com/. Loads of languages/tools to learn.

And if I am travelling from New Delhi to London, how would I know/sync what time the sun rises/sets?

> You wouldn't be the author of that blog by any chance?

The author of that blog, "Kenneth Gonsalves" is dead for almost a year.

If you have compiled it to HTML, wouldn't it be more efficient to serve it up as static HTML files via nginx (or any web server). Why store the HTML in redis and serve off it via an application?

Can you do a blog post instead? Would help lot of developers like me who are looking into Go as the next programming language to learn.

I use gandi for all my domains. Even use their mailbox for 1 domain and haven't had a problem. I would recommend only gandi to anyone.

We tried using it in the previous startup I worked with.

It was pretty hard to make everyone use it and soon we ended up installing redmine for issue tracking.

I didn't even get the email from evernote regarding the password reset.

Luckily, I had the evernote app sign me out and asking me to login again (which didn't work with my old password). I had to login through the website and it prompted me to change my password (no link on why) and then it worked with the new password.

I searched through my email trying to see if any email got eaten by the spam folder, but none, "No emails".

Do Google employees also see the same interface with ads? And if so, shouldn't it be illegal as the employees (in)directly increase Google's revenue?

"I've yet to read any convincing argument about how this verdict will lead to more innovation"

The verdict will lead to more innovation and R&D from Samsung, instead of just copying from Apple.

Maybe that is his point. Good product names with two words must be able to rank high for both "twowords" and "two words"(with space).

Didn't work on Safari 6.0.

Interest rates for Fixed deposits are around 8-9% for a year in some Indian banks. There were times when it was more than 10% too.

The short URL feature doesn't work. The short URL created is http://0bin.net/paste/undefined

Great product. But do check for broken links on the website.

The download page http://boomerangcalendar.com/beta/download.php link to /beta/features.html and /beta/faq.html.

Chrome 18.0.1025.142 beta here and works for me.

They don't have any official policy regarding number of founders. I think wedoist is one such startup which has a single founder.

Coincidentally, I had such an idea for a long time and have started writing an application for such a blog in my spare time. But my blog isnt just for the tech community. Will do a "Show HN" soon, when I have a working site.

But would be nice to see a github hosted version.

What @napoleoncomplex meant was hipchat has the file upload feature, but grove doesn't. And he would move to grove if that was present.

There is a whole group of website part of Bharat Matrimony (site where parents find life partners for their sons/daughters) catering to the particular regions/languages in India - bengali, tamil, kannada, telugu, etc. Each on its own domain.

There are also separate sites for various religions and some exclusive sites like Privilege Matrimony, Elite Matrimony, DivorceeMatrimony, Defence Matrimony, etc.

> This application is designed to hold a lot of news and comments even using little memory.

Can you post some benchmarks on that? Would like to see how many (average sized) news/comments can be stored on the 512mb VPS.

Why three different blogs? Can't all these be posted to a single blog and split based on categories?
