I moved from n8n to trigger.dev a month ago. Maintaining all the workflows in GUI was just too time consuming and difficult. I already use NextJS for my app, so switch to trigger.dev was easy, not maintaining and making changes my workflows in IDE takes about 80% less time. So far I am very happy with my decision to switch.

In footer they have n8n vs Zapier and n8n vs Make pages, I guess other similar software would be IFTTT

I have been using n8n for over a year. I prefer it over popular Zapier as it gives me more flexibility and I am able to self host. It have its quirks that you learn about only when you work enough with it to look up solutions on community forums. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is their Cloud, it seams more buggy/unstable than my self hosted instance (more timeouts, probably to conserve shared resources). Still I would recommended to anyone looking for a cheap and open source alternative for Zapier.

I am not sure, to be honest. I know that they have a lot of people signing up. I think invitation bumps up you place in the waiting line.

Ask HN: Superhuman Invitation

Hi everyone! When I first heard about superhuman.com was a while ago, I requested access and forgot about it. Last week I watched a This Week in Startups episode featuring their founder. I loved the product and would like to start using it. Could someone get me invitation/recommendation for Superhuman? I would really appreciate it! michal at stktk.com

I have run into this problem when I was living in China and wanted to map hiking trip with my friends in HangZhou.

Wrote about it on my old blog in 2013: http://michalkow.tumblr.com/post/43214865761/compensate-for-...

The title sounded much more interesting then the article itself. I was expecting something about black-hat hackers.
I don't like being redirected to Wikipedia on read more. When you do that, there is good chance that visitor is not coming back. I think you should display rest of the content on your site as well.

Thanks for the idea. It is really nice, I am just afraid if buying a single font not a little to small for a gift...

At his company they all use Drupal. He knows php, but I am not sure if he uses any other platforms.

I did like how you were trying to handle the situation, it was really reasonable to try work something out. I am sad about their response to you, make me loss faith and proves that once they were successful, they just stopped caring. I would suggest you trying sending an other email with same approach to someone else higher up in company. From what i get Ray is guy in legal department, we don't know if he cares about user base and if he forwarded the email to someone else before he decided to deny you a way out.

I might have been to quick to rejoice. Github acces seams to be going on and off.

If you go on http://viewdns.info/chinesefirewall/?domain=github.com and refresh page few times, you will get different status in different places.
