Show HN: I coded the world's most popular meditation program into a web app
- ricardbejarano 7y agoWithout caring about meditation at all (sorry?), I want to thank OP for giving us a way of trying it without signing up. All "Show HN" posts should do that IMHO.
- mayeaux 7y agoHey no problem! Every feature on this site is usable without registration and registration doesn't require an email let alone a confirmed email. It's just user friendly design, I agree, thanks for the input!
- omneity 7y agoSpeaking from the other side (as a maker), sometimes it's not that trivial to provide public access, and requiring sign up is a good deterrent against high traffic that has low value (curious folks). The thing is, some products require something "expensive" to run (mine for example uses Chrome, which is a significant bottleneck in capacity). I know some large projects had to close or add a paywall for this same reason (AI Dungeon comes to mind).
- gatherhunterer 7y ago> over 4000 mentions on online medical aggregator PubMed That is a weird statistic to choose for professing a proof of viability. I’m sure cancer has more than 4000 mentions on PubMed, does that mean cancer is good for me? Why not cite a review of relevant studies instead? Quoting a meaningless piece of information is suspicious and lazy.
- davidjnelson 7y agoThis is awesome- is Or will there be a social component so you can do it with a group?
- mayeaux 7y agoThank you! MBSR is typically done in a group so to loop in some social aspect would be a solid feature but nothing planned atm, thanks for the feedback.
- service_bus 7y agoInteresting concept, awful name.
