• Square Is Down

  This is absolutely killing me (https://quailhq.com) -- I've got hundreds of antique stores trying to get us on the phone, all wanting to know why their card readers have suddenly stopped working. It's going to be a long, long day. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Ask HN: Show your failed projects and share a lesson you learned

  Two of these (plus another, Price Parrot, that I forgot to include: https://sandpiperhq.com/pricing !), are spin-outs of a side-project (https://quailhq.com) that I started in 2014and that I've been working on for 7 years -- and that became my full-time job in 2021. That one definitely isn't a failure! The five (six including Price Parrot) are just the failures from this year. I try to live by "fail fast"! - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• in-fkin-sane bill.

  Have you tried asktrim.com? You send them the bill, they negotiate a better rate, you pay them 15% of the annual savings. And they'll keep coming back for more cuz it helps them too. They've renegoticated my cell bill 4 times in 2 years and saved me over $1,400, and charged me about $450. I only give them the bill after I've done what I can to reduce it, so anything more is a net win. Source: almost 2 years ago

• LPT can call your internet provider/cable provider and try to get lower rates and it works a lot of the time.
