I'm from India. I was looking for a service like this but without sending me a physical book part.

I'd use this at @ $10 price point if I'm able get downloadable a4 coloring pages from a picture. It would be great. Also this way your customer base becomes international.

$10 for 20 pictures is a good price point for me. Pretty expensive but I'd still go for it.

and eventually those tax reports and credit ratings will be tied to super market checkout systems. So governments can pick and choose which tax payers can eat what.

Any data that is aggregated is open to abuse by the aggregator and it will be definitely abused if the aggregator is a government body.

sathishmanohar··on Tell HN: Never search for domains on Godaddy.com
I was always suspicious of godaddy and you never know which domain registrars would go rogue in this respect in the future.

So I created a simple shell script from which I do all my domain availability searches now. It is also way faster than using any web based searches.

The science is not settled. There is more and more new data coming out everyday linking vaccines and autism.

Here is a discussion about the data set from a pediatric hospital in America. The concerned Doctor Paul Thomas is not even against vaccines.

If you want to go over more than 1000 studies about vaccines published in established scientific journal get a copy of Neil Z Miller's book https://www.amazon.com/Vaccine-Safety-Concerned-Families-Pra...

sathishmanohar··on Show HN: Simple shell script I created to find .com domains
Requirements: This script depends on whois. Make sure whois is installed

How to use: https://pli.io/UaZp9.jpg

I found myself searching for a lot of domain names for my project and my clients. I was using the domain search by tools provided by domain registrars like godaddy, namecheap etc. I had two main problems with that approach.

1) These tools aren't fast enough to check the availability in a sense the workflow of a domain search is mostly like okay not this, then what about this, it goes on and on like that. I wanted to know only if the domain is available. I don't want to load a bunch of pretty interface files that slowed me down in the process.

2) The good domains I searched were magically being bought if I don't complete the purchase in a couple of hours or within days.

So, I sat down and wrote this simple script which I've been using for more than a year. I didn't time it but this script should make you 4x more effective in searching domains.
