I don’t know if you have started working on a potential solution (I am assuming not based off your verbiage), but I’d love to hear more.

If interested in sharing more, whether you want to have nothing to do with a potential venture or not, I have my public email on my profile. Cheers!

Hi all, I'm looking for an application (whether paid or open source) that enables me to see the input on my Macbook Pro's [extremely large] touch pad.I think it'd be cool to use ML to be able to get a person's heart rate (i.e., heart BPM) by simply letting the user rest their hand/wrist on the touch surface.

Ask HN: Current legality of running an ICO for a startup?

This discussion may very well have already occurred, but I'm curious as to how legal it is to fund a startup via an ICO (i.e., create a fancy lander with a lofty stated mission, draft out a whitepaper with a few nice graphics inserted to demonstrate to the public how your loft mission will be built out) these days?
