roh26it··on Bitfinex fails to perform promised audits
Which is a safe and friendly exchange according you people?
roh26it··on Zen Magnets burned $40k of buckyballs, got fined $5.5mil and still beat the feds
I've been interested in this story for years. Since I Buckyballs a couple years ago for the first time, then seeing so many of them going into the furnace, such a shame. Glad to see you guys came out on top in the end.
roh26it··on Ask HN: Why are most ML and AI projects written in Python?
I also hear Python is very Math like so ML practitioners tend to like it a little more?
roh26it··on Ask HN: Why are most ML and AI projects written in Python?
"other languages"

Which ones are doing well apart from Python? Any cutting edge stuff?

roh26it··on Inline Annotations and Markup on Gmail Attachments
Thanks a lot! I'm the founder and would love to hear about how you like it. We're constantly improving the extension and thinking about how we could add value to the much abused email attachments. :-)
roh26it··on Show HN: Product Hunt with Rewards: Sharkit
Really like the concept of featured images. Though, might need more differentiation from Product Hunt given that its already grown to be so popular!
roh26it··on Screenshot URL tracking and niki-bot
Agreed. I use profiles to keep myself safe but have been struggling when I switch between different machines.

There are so many users on the webstore. Time to solve a BIG problem? (App monitoring service?)

roh26it··on Screenshot URL tracking and niki-bot
Did you know you could actually read the source code of most extensions that are on the chrome webstore. I'd rather that people start publishing their privacy policy honestly else Google blocks them from the webstore.
roh26it··on Screenshot URL tracking and niki-bot
Usually these projects are open source which enable the community to make sure that no fishy stuff happens. Thats probably product type 4.
roh26it··on Screenshot URL tracking and niki-bot
Free tools that provide value should hence be avoided. While evaluating a tool, I've always checked for if a company runs on 1.subscription money, 2. ads, 3. selling my data

Usually stay wary of signing up for anything which tilts towards 3.

roh26it··on Show HN: Use email subject lines to save personal stats and chart them
This is superb. I'm going to use it as a daily logging service for the number of users who sign up for my service. I get this email everyday telling me the number of signups and I've been procrastinating adding a line chart to give me some historical data along with it. Hope you don't mind me linking this to a server. :-)

Also, +1 for more options to power users. This is dead simple which is why it works but if I have data for than a month, this might start to get messy for me.

roh26it··on Today is a bad day to buy a GPS watch
Well, won't these companies finally open their silos to Google and Apple? What is to fear here?
roh26it··on LinkedIn Neutered Rapportive Today
Gmail has ~500mn users. Rapportive is possibly the most used Gmail extension out there for Chrome & Firefox. By deduction, Rapportive is the largest business/product built on top of Gmail. With only 326,000 active users isn't it a worry that products on top of Gmail are difficult to market?

Is this a reason of fear for companies like Streak and Yesware who bet heavily on the Gmail extension? (Technically their market size would have been 500mn but since the largest player only has 326k users, the total addressable market becomes really small). Something seems off since YC itself has many companies that are following this model.

Anything I'm missing out here?

roh26it··on LinkedIn Neutered Rapportive Today
It still shows all the user profiles to me. Has this been rolled out only to selective groups?
roh26it··on Ask HN to review: app to save files from web directly to your Dropbox
Wouldn't this work so much better as a Chrome/Firefox plugin?
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
We should do that! Can I get your email address? I'm ar rohit AT framebench DOT com
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
Thats the debate between giving it for free and charging a small amount..
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
Woah, thanks a lot! Would really appreciate if you tell your friends about it. Thanks again!
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
You do have a point there! We kept it to be a good starting point of low resistance.
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
Thanks a ton! :)
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
Thanks a lot for this oneye! You're right we've had people sign up for our enterprise plans more than we'd expected. But we felt that this is the rift price point today because we want to make this available to every creator whos collaborating.

We go after the high net worth users with our enterprise plans that offer a higher degree of customization and integration.

Hey, sorry about this. we figure that while we could do something about an XSS attack, this is something we'd leave. We did clean a lot of comments and chat messages which were extreme. Framebench is meant to be private, so while this may happen in a demo, it certainly won't when within an organization. Thanks for pointing it out though! :)
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
What after the screen sharing session? Framebench makes sure that all your comments, files etc stay here. Also allows for asynchronous feedback so you could check the comments left at your convenience. This is why we say Framebench has the good parts of email and screensharing. And we have a fully functional asset management with versioning system built in..

Btw, did I mention...much lower bandwidth costs. :)

Thanks!
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
Done. It should work now.
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
And security loop plugged.
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
Yes, someone just cleared the DOM using an XSS. Should be up now atleast. Found the vulnerability.
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
Yep, we did check it for many text boxes. Someone found a loophole! x|

On it now.

roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
Often times, designers have to get feedback from the business guys because we do have a tendency to go with the flow. Especially if its not a full time job.
roh26it··on Show HN: We built a realtime design feedback tool using Node.js
Thats true, in fact I love their sense of UI design. Thanks a lot for pointing it out.

Thanks again!
