Show HN: I built a tool to stop pretending I understood research papers
I'm not a researcher. I'm just someone who gets unreasonably excited when a new paper drops in a field I have no business reading about. Protein folding? Fascinating. Quantum error correction? Sign me up. The problem is, jumping into a paper on topological qubits when your physics education stopped at "electrons go around the nucleus" is... humbling.So I built PaperSplain for myself. It...

There's an inherent ubiquitous nature to the strategy. Kinda like the golden ratio or the elliott wave theory. They've been published and are ubiquitous but they still occur in charts.
But I understand that once the algos know about the strategy, it becomes targeted to oblivion. So maybe I need to muster out the strength and use it without publishing its source.

Ask HN: How to Monetize a Trading Strategy?
Hello HNWhile studying price charts, I stumbled upon a high-probability trading strategy. My back testing has shown very good results. I haven't found anything like it online. While I'm not ready to share this strategy here yet, I have a few questions.How would you go about sharing this strategy but at the same time monetizing it? Besides a book and maybe an online course, is there anything I...

My old man is in his 80s. I run a small brick & mortar business. I figured I'd bring him in and keep him busy -- do him a favor and perhaps help slow down his cognitive decline. But it turns out I was the one who needed him around. He's meticulous with the bookkeeping and really good at crunching numbers with pen & paper. It dawned on me... they don't make people like this anymore...

The account has been paused for an obvious reason. I made it clear from the get-go: it's due to chargebacks. And yes it falls on me.
But if any of my long term clients were to genuinely mend their ways about whatever issue that affects the relationship, I'd definitely give them a second chance.

> You may not have reduced them enough to be eligible for service by Stripe
Not really. I made the changes while my account had payouts and payments paused by Stripe. I haven't been given the chance to show Stripe we take this seriously.

I hear you. This is why I've gotten on top of this. I've essentially turned Stripe automation off in my system. So each and every customer wishing to go with Stripe for payment is fraud-checked and dd'ed.

After more than 9 years of using them for my SaaS business, Stripe has decided to close my account for the following reason:"""Unfortunately, after conducting a further review of your account, we’ve confirmed that your business presents a higher level of risk than we can currently support, so we won’t be able to accept payments for XYZ LLC moving forward."""This is after I've made drastic...
