Thank you for the kind words! Ah yeah, strong.app is very popular. We have many cool features planned that should allow us to give value to even the most serious weight lifters who are not supported by the strong app, like autoregulating based on RPE/RIR, routine snippets, supersets, dropsets, private trainer profiles, etc, but we have a lot of work ahead yet.

I added your wish to our subreddit as a feature request: https://www.reddit.com/r/hardyapp/comments/nzsmu2/feature_re...? If your username is there as it is here I can notify you once we have added such a feature. :)

If anybody is looking for a routine database that supports more complex routines like the Wendler's 5/3/1 variations with Training Max percentage based weights then check out the [Hardy.app](https://www.hardy.app/howitworks). The routines can have progression overload based on AMRAP, deloads, etc. And the workout tracking app calculates changes in your TM based on AMRAP and other rules in the routine. Just enter you 1 rep maxes and hit "start".

Full disclosure though, it's kinda self-promotion because I've been developing [Hardy.app](https://www.hardy.app) with a friend for over a year now. It's free and we're adding more features all the time, check it out if interested. :)

Pardon my ignorance, but how come mobile apps and websites get valued for 10+ or 20+ Bn dollars , while someone who creates real technology is valued at only $6.9Bn

Imagine a building, say a shopping center, airport, or a city main square, that gets the same amount of visitors per day as some of those apps, and it might start to make more sense. Take Clash of Clans for example, valued at $10 billion. It has around 100 million daily active players. One of the busiest airports, the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, has 104 million passengers annually. NY Times square receives about fifty million visitors per year.

If something, anything, gets 100 million visitors PER DAY, the value of such a real estate, even if digital, is immense.

I can see plenty of people in the valley being rich enough and crazy enough to stasis themselves so they can see the future and reap its benefits.

Invest money in stocks, bonds and the like and automatically reinvest dividends. Sleep for 10-20 years, wake up in a potentially better financial position.

Bootstrap 4 Beta 9 years ago

Personally prefer Foundation but glad to see Bootstrap maturing from the eternal alpha version. :)

Kicktrolling 13 years ago

Maybe they Kicktrolled themselves in order to raise publicity on their misfortune? It's not easy to get on the front page of HN...

Everyone thinks that backups aren't necessary until something happens to them.

On the contrary, everybody knows backups are necessary, the problem is bothering to actually do it regularly, especially on a high-intensity time of pre-launch. Personally I forgot to eat at times when working on our Kickstarter campaign video...
