I have the MZOO sleep mask as well and it’s the best I’ve found after trying a bunch of different brands. I bought a second as a backup and would rebuy in the future if needed.

I got the same modal, but I opened up DevTools, deleted the modal and was able to then click into my account settings and delete my account.

This is a really good analogy (gas station customers) that I haven’t heard before. I’ve often tried to describe this ‘low intent’ group but never had a good way to make it relatable.
The linked article only looks at the time period of the last 50 years. If you believe in big cycles (like covered in Ray Dalio’s “The Changing World Order”), expand that perspective to several hundred years and market returns don’t look quite as guaranteed over a given 20 year period. I’m still formulating my own thesis but it’s a good read if you are into such things.
I forward emails for custom domains from my registrars (Namecheap and GoDaddy) to Gmail. Then you can use a free Zoho account that lets you send email from your custom domain from within you Gmail account (sent via Zoho's email servers). It's a bit of work to set up but then you can do everything from within Gmail seamlessly.

I think this is the tutorial I followed years ago: https://medium.com/@raymondgh/how-to-set-up-a-free-custom-do...

Re:Spotify trying to lock-in users just after IPO (2018) on Wednesday March 13, 2019 @11:32AM (#19379663)
I built a tool for exporting your Spotify playlists and library to CSV spreadsheets: http://www.streamexport.com/

It doesn't 'move' your playlists to other services but it gives you a record of all of your playlists that you can control and store locally.

I don't know Garry super well but in our few conversations I found him to be one of the smartest and most generous founders I've come across.

Enjoy the time away, Garry!

Re:How Evernote Onboards New Users on Monday February 17, 2014 @02:16PM (#7253824)
It's interesting to see how little emphasis is placed on "Evernote, the product" on the homepage. More "Evernote, the ecosystem".
Agreed. The scrolling function was part of the Wordpress theme. I find it kind of annoying as well.
Great tip! I'll set that up.

LUL, thanks for the bug report. I'll take a look!
Re:Show HN: Unregistered word.tld domain names for your project on Wednesday January 29, 2014 @04:56PM (#7147306)
Yeah, legit .com dictionary words are all taken. You can sometimes find really obscure ones, but none of the ones on Dictionary Domains are available as .com.
Re:Show HN: Unregistered word.tld domain names for your project on Wednesday January 29, 2014 @04:55PM (#7147296)
Yep, I plan on adding more words and some additional domain extensions. Follow me on twitter for updates: twitter.com/justinthiele

It definitely triggers a 'Fear Of Missing Out' response.

Buy early ;)

There's a filter button there too where you can select the TLD you want to see.
Re:Show HN: Unregistered word.tld domain names for your project on Wednesday January 29, 2014 @02:50PM (#7146265)
Ha, yeah, it'd be interesting to see which domains on there became valuable and/or successful companies.

After I made this I saw Andy Baio did a list back in 2002 too: http://waxy.org/projects/domains/

That's awesome! Now build cool stuff with your new name :)
Re:Show HN: Unregistered word.tld domain names for your project on Wednesday January 29, 2014 @02:10PM (#7146012)
It's funny how product ideas pop up once you see a certain name.

Hey HN,

Over the weekend, I built Dictionary Domains to make it super easy to find unregistered {word}.{tld} domains for your next project.

There's some pretty great tools out there that help find domains: I really like Lean Domain Search and back in the day I used Bust A Name a ton. But really, I'm a huge fan of simple verb/noun/adjective domains. I'd happily compromise on the .com extension to get something clean and meaningful.

Here's some of my favorites from the site:

kaput.io proud.cc jud.ge measly.co quaint.io punch.cc closed.cc bubble.io stran.ge chilly.io rainy.io dama.ge puny.io quicke.st

Hopefully you find it helpful!
