I mostly spend time on sites that I use multiple times a day. I prefer that those sites are designed for people who use them multiple times a day, not for people who visit once, from HN. This might be targeting a minority of users - it’s d

Thank you. I now will not consider switching to Fastmail. Also, I don’t trust Australia on encryption.

I want to access the menu 100% of the time that I'm using the site I've added the header to, after some scrolling. I re-scroll 50% of the pages that I visit. Seems like a definite win to me? Maybe your usability desires are differ

I'm an enthusiastic supporter of auto-hiding headers and have added them to sites. I don't understand the hate? It's easy to scroll back down again and have the header re-hide (ie overscroll when you see it happening and then

Donate to Bike Index! We’re more widely used everywhere except for Vancouver. Also, we wrote this article! And Bike Index is a non profit, so it makes sense to donate to us, rather than a for profit company. https://bikeindex.org

From Wikipedia: > WD-40 is an American brand and the trademark name of a water-displacing spray … and the definition of “water displacing spray” is “penetrating fluid” It definitely is an oil, it definitely lubricates. But we normally na

WD40 is a penetrant, not a lubricant, I don’t know any Mechanics who use it. Definitely will debate lubricants for days, but no one who is in the industry uses standard WD40

Absolutely! You spend the majority of your awake time at work. Some people optimize for money, others optimize for status, happiness or any other objective humans can have. I think the thing that really upsets people is that the company cha

Because mercenary motivation is in and of itself a choice. If everyone was motivated by money alone there wouldn’t be non-profits. There is clearly a market for occupations with different incentives.

If you believe the world is flat, you would likewise attempt to separate teaching physics from less potentially challenging subjects. I don’t believe that makes physics not part of education. Just because you (or Texas) thinks abortion shou

I am also curious about this, and would like a response before signing up. You’ve established your knowledge of data brokerages, but not your motivations. Did you all have a change of heart? Just see a product opportunity?

Why aren’t YIMBYs pushing for 10x (or 100 or 1000) the number of liveaboard slips? This has frustrated me for years. The low number and price is crazy, when I visited the Netherlands I stayed in a houseboat and it was amazing and cheap - an

Are you looking for product market fit? If so, you need to focus on that and not scaling. If you have a guaranteed internal market so you need to launch with scale, then that’s more important
