It’s not my plans. He’s actively asking me to build robots and to code. School has given him some Minecraft coding games but he’s maxed them out or just bored with them. I’m just trying to foster his interest.

This is great thanks. He’s into lego and I was thinking about the technic/advanced sets but I’m definitely going to explore this. Looks to be a few in my area too.

Integrate it with ghost. There aren’t many options for us building communities on Ghost for commenting. Cove.chat but the experience is less than premium IMO.

Yep this right here. I tried to start a niche room for my podcast listeners but had to jump through too many hoops. I think they can pivot into something useful but in its current form it doesnt’ have much value for me for all the reasons

Go to the Tokyo Fish Market if you really want your eyes opened. 1500 tons of fish brought in every day. They just scoop up everything they can get their nets on and sell it at the market. Truly eye-opening experience.

Same concept but different book. The Automatic Millionaire. Short and sweet, highly recommend

Mine is not exactly for the demo of HN crowd but I’m proud of its recent launch. A community around my sports podcast. https://www.redwhitenetwork.com 200+ members and a few dozen paying subs, I’m ecstatic.

This is really cool. Do you have any examples of live sites?

There is some good advice in this thread. In the end, just start writing good content which it sounds like you've already started having 20 Google docs. Your post gave me motivation to finish a post I had started on this topic and I ho

Don’t give your kid unfettered access to YT. A video here and there is fine but the stuff that comes up even on YT kids if you just let them click around is toxic and creepy.

His channel is awful. The parents alone are cringe worthy. Our boys don’t get to watch him anymore.

very cool but my eyes! How can someone follow this list? I'd be interested in following and possibly knowing which are new when I come back.

Gosh came here for this advice and can't believe how far down the page it is.

Late to the party but this is awesome. I'd love to have something like this near me. That facility and price are perfect.

For sure. I've come to the conclusion that most people are just too closed minded to hear anything that does not align with their side. It is a particularly good mindset to adapt right around election years.

2. Being right is overrated. So true. Something I took a long time to learn. Everyone's perspective is different so be more empathetic to it and maybe you'll find you're not right after all.

Less is more. - You don't need that neat kitchen gadget when a knife will do just fine. - A small number of close friends > a lot of acquaintances. As you get older and priorities change, maintaining those friendships becomes harde

This is fantastic. I had a similar idea but it was for a friend of mine. She constantly made the wrong choices in life and I'm positive things would turn out better if she crowdsourced all of her decision makings.

Umano was a great app that was similar to this. In some unexplained moved, Dropbox bought it and shut them down. It used real people to read the articles but it was definitely worth paying for.

Ditto on the sitebulb love. It's a well-done product and a welcome challenger to the status-quo of SEO software out there. I will say the cost gives me hesitation but you've put a lot of work into it so I understand the justificat

I don't understand how this is considered an autopsy, what was he selling? what was his conversion rate? what was customer acquisition? what was retention? Paid high salaries and burned through investment without closing sales? That
