I've been working with React Server Components recently. A lot of the points here are applicable for RSCs too. The problem IMO, is Next.JS. Most apps don't need edge computing or fancy caching (which Vercel sells). Take those out, and I think we'll have a nice framework that's easy to use for everyone.

Re:Launch HN: Piggy (YC S17) – Investment App for India
on Monday July 31, 2017 @05:14AM (#14890490)
Hey, sorry for the delayed response. In case you see this, do you have any data that I use to compare the costs involved by investing through Coin vs Piggy? Also, since you're a start-up I'd be a bit concerned to give my money with doubts what'd happen if you shut down. How can I make sure my investments are secured even if you shut down?

Why should I use Piggy over Coin by Zerodha? What are the important differences?

This is more into AI than Ads. AFAIK Siri uses Wolfram Alpha for its answers. Given the way Google's knowledge graph is advancing, it totally makes sense for them to build their own AI engine.

Ask HN: How much do you care about security while building an MVP?
I'm in a situation in which I have to decide between security of the application and shipping fast. The idea that we're working is not yet evaluated but we believe it has the potential to go viral. What would be the ideal thing to do here, build the product perfectly or to ship fast and fix later?

Thanks! But, let's just say, the conditions I'm in, I can't afford to spend time on anything else other than shaping my career. What would your advise be?
Ask HN: I have 6 months. What should I do?
I'm an senior undergrad student at a top school in India. I have an offer from a top company in India. I'll be totally free during my upcoming semester. I'm not sure if I should spend time on competitive programming and improve my algorithm skills or work on a startup. I have a SaaS idea that I'd like to work on. Which one do you think will payoff better later? I'm not able concentrate on...

This was the exact same idea that I submitted for Google Cloud Developer Challenge in last November. I could not finish the app in time because of my exams and followed by my internship. I'm not sure if this is their original idea or they've read my application. Is there anything I can do about it? Even if I can't, this just boosted my confidence on my startup ideas.
Google Chrome stores every password that you use, even in Incognito mode
I'm not sure if this is feature or a bug, but Chrome stores every password that you enter in it. Check your Keychain Access application on OS X to see every password that was synced to it by Google Chrome. Is this an expected behavior?
