Isn't it harder to make good decisions while in panic mode, thereby floating you further away from the goal of making money?

Wouldn't that make the web even less open and even more monopolistic?

Re:Ask HN: Weekend project stories on Sunday June 29, 2014 @04:35AM (#7960708)

A friend and I worked on a typical weekend project lately. A Font Awesome to PNG online generator (http://fa2png.io). I was great fun. It took us about 24h total from concept to live deployment. It's a flask app deployed to digital ocean.

We were on HN in 2nd place for about half a day. Got about 17.000 unique visits in the first two days, a couple of twitter mentions and now about 200-300 visits a day.

It was an awesome experience. Very satisfying because it felt kind of complete when we launched. That's not typical for a web app. Although there are always more features to add. We felt like the app is exactly doing what we planned it should.

I wrote about it in more detail here http://jannikweyrich.com/blog/2014/05/26/weekend-project-fon...

Ask HN: Does it make sense to use another marketing language than english?

Posted by commanderj on Saturday January 25, 2014 @08:56AM
from the ask-hn dept.

I was asking myself if it makes sense to do marketing for a Saas or App Startup in a language other than english. I mean website, blog, emails, guest posts, ads etc.While this is obviously a good idea if your product is somehow bound to a certain area like e.g. a real estate site for Paris. I was wandering if it also could be a chance for startups with generic, not language or area bound...

Re:Host your Django App for 1€/month on Wednesday November 20, 2013 @12:47PM (#6769580)

You could. Not sure if Heroku offers a full fledged linux environment. Also there are unlimited databases (MySQL, Postgres, MongoDB, CouchDB or Redis ) included in the 1€ fee.
