   bad documentation and API over charges

   First, the docuemtnation is out of date... for node.js, anyway. This meant that I had to patch together parts of the docuemtnation to get the API to work. Then, as the articles are paginated. the API charges 50 token for each page of the query, when it should be 50 tokens for the entire query. Therefore, I'd been charged 5,000 tokens within minutes. (Note: it's $150 USD for every 10,000 tokens)

   I asked for a refund, explaining the pagination issue, and was told that I made a mistake.

   I've requested my money back from the credit card company and provided them the proof of faulty documentation and billing.

• Ask HN: Can we get an option to show root comments only on HN?

  Https://hw.leftium.com/ shows only root comments. Example: https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/36200884 Can even show just root replies to a comment: https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/36201108 Each page has a link to the original HN page. --- My app doesn't show the default HN feed; it shows the list of all items that have hit the front page in reverse chronological order (like https://hckrnews.com/).

• Show HN: Simple, readable, chronological front page items from Hacker News

  HckrWeb is my heavily modified fork of HackerWeb[1] with data from hckr news[2]. I mashed together the simple, readable UI of HackerWeb with the chronological ordering from hckr news. You can also share links to readable HN comments like this: https://hw.leftium.com/#/item/23741256 Source code available here: https://github.com/Leftium/hckrweb [1]: https://hackerwebapp.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago
