I get how tempting it is to hijack someone else's launch thread, especially when you've been working in the same space for a long time, but you're overdoing it. When I looked in on this thread, 3 of 7 comments were yours.
It's maybe fine to post one comment about your competing service—maybe. (I'm not even sure about that, to be honest, but people do it.) Pushing the envelope beyond that is too much.
Btw, this applies to all startup launches, not just YC companies, and we moderate other threads exactly the same way when we see this dynamic. From my perspective it's about the kind of community we want HN to be.
Non-launch threads are different of course. I'm sure your work is very good and you're completely welcome to participate on HN.
Got it. Not my intent to hijack this. I'll delete.
I'm trying to share that much of what is described in the post and discussion is currently being formalized - and there are different interpretations and technical solutions that various teams including what gallery is proposing.
What you're proposing here sounds like it falls under the Continuous Previews umbrella that we've been collaborating with others to define and refine via the Continuous Previews Manifesto.
Awesome to see others finding the same value proposition in the process. We think there's space for several interpretations of CP and we see value in the implementation you're proposing.
If you're interested in collaborating please reach out.
This is fantastic - I hesitate to show it to my wife because it will induce baby fever.
I have a feature request for a naming contract option between you and your partner.
When you begin the name search you outline an agreement on key issues i.e.:
-Veto rules
-No Later Than Date for settling the name
-Method(s) and timing by which you will release the name
-Family name considerations
In my experience with 5 kids it's these things that end up taking the joy out of naming.
What this article doesn't address is the emotional and psychological factors that contribute to energy or lack thereof. I've found that as I age these become much more significant factors than sleep, eating right, and exercise . . .
