Re:Show HN: I built a tool to manage and compare credit card rewards
on Friday April 11, 2025 @05:51AM (#43652166)
I can select Amex plat but not business plat. These cards have materially different benefits and rewards earning structures.
Plus selection first then making me create an account? Feels like a scammy aggregator of some sort (even if it’s not).
Your audience will largely not appreciate the dark pattern.
Just my 2 mr points.

I think the fact that fluoride is beneficial to your teeth is a settled fact. However, the issue being discussed is fluorides impact on brain health.

Agreed. Allowing children to sleep at home is also very dangerous. Not to mention spending unsupervised time during their waking hours with parents and family members without regular government audits. Thank you for standing up for children.

Wealthier jurisdictions already do pay in the form of police expenditures. The vast majority of crime committed in wealthier jurisdictions is by people who do not live or pay taxes within the jurisdiction.

How is this any more illegal than a cop calling in a license plate number of any random vehicle they see on the road (which is not at all illegal)?

I replied to his original emails and he was smug, condescending, and unapologetic. He probably won’t have much luck reaching out to these people one by one. The whole thing is built on a competitor’s API. The business is not going to work, unfortunately. I liked the product though.

How do you expect Dodd-Frank to prevent every regional bank depositor with half a brain cell attempting to move their deposits to a big 4 first thing Monday morning?
Do you understand the consequences of that? If that happens, dozens and perhaps eventually hundreds of regional banks will fail and many many more depositors will be out money.
