jjets718··on A Free 7-Day Email Course about the Ketogenic Diet
Hi there, HN! Over the past several weeks I spent some time putting together a free email course about the ketogenic diet.

The ketogenic diet has gained popularity among dieticians and nutritionists as a way for people to safely and sustainably lose weight. If you're looking for a lifestyle change that will lead to better health, the ketogenic diet may help you.

In this course, I delve into what the ketogenic diet is, how to start following it, how to test blood ketone levels, and more. I'd love to hear your feedback about the course if you decide to join it. Just email me directly at kaufmanjohn719@gmail.com with any feedback or ketogenic diet questions. Thanks!

jjets718··on Show HN: Devprovement – huge discounts on courses and books for developers
Howdy, folks! I'm the founder of Devprovement. I'll be around for a while this morning and this afternoon to answer any questions you might have.

I love to learn new things and I think one of the most important things someone can do to continue to improve in their careers is learn new skills and improve existing ones.

So, I created Devprovement to help software developers learn new skills and earn more money because of it. Software development and engineering seems like one of the clearest examples of an industry where as people learn more and gain more experience, they get paid more too. So, I want to provide developers with the best resources for learning new skills at huge discounts (50% to 90% off the normal price).

Thanks, Nat! Great questions. You can do bulk uploads and comparisons using the API, but I don't believe we have plans to allow bulk uploads and comparisons using the web interface in the next few months.

jjets718··on Show HN: A free tool to monitor and implement DMARC
Hi spdustin. Thanks for the comment. Deliverability is crucial, and that's one reason we built our free DMARC tool. We want anyone sending transactional email to have their emails reliably delivered to the inbox. dmarcian looks like a great tool as well, so thanks for recommending it.
jjets718··on Show HN: A free tool to monitor and implement DMARC
Hi there Synergyse! It can. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like Google lets users set up DMARC for regular Gmail accounts. But, you can set up DMARC for Google Apps emails. First you need to set up DKIM and SPF for your Google Apps domain. Once DKIM and SPF are set up, you should start to implement DMARC slowly. Here's a good resource that will help you implement it: https://support.google.com/a/answer/2466563?hl=en. Thanks and let me know if you have any other questions!

jjets718··on Show HN: A free tool to monitor and implement DMARC
Hi all! I’m Jack and I work on the Postmark team at Wildbit. This is a free tool from Postmark to help you monitor and implement DMARC for your domain. DMARC is a standard that prevents hackers and spammers from using your domain to send spam without your permission. The tool helps you do this by processing reports from major ISPs about your domain’s DMARC alignment and turns them into beautiful, human-readable weekly email digests, absolutely free. If you have any questions about this tool, I and one or two other members of the Postmark team will be around to answer your questions.

jjets718··on Show HN: The Entrepreneur's Guide to Finding Your First Customers
Hi, everyone! I just wanted to share a new book that I co-authored with Adii Pienaar called The Entrepreneur's Guide to Finding Your First Customers. Adii and I created the book because often many new businesses and startups fail. We want to help people create successful businesses, and that's why we created this book. Most businesses fail because the founder of founders either: aren't working on a product that people really need and that provides lots of value to people, or they don't know how to effectively market a product and get people to buy it. With this book we address both of those issues. We teach you how to discover and come up with profitable product ideas and then get the first customers and many more customers for those products. If you have any questions about the book, I would love to answer them. Thanks!
