App looks great! great work guys! Few questions:

- Are you guys deploying a separate project in vercel for every user or using shared project among all?

- What's the security mechanism for storing environment variables? is it in vercel itself?

- Any plans for typescript support?

- Intellisense was not working for an installed package. It'll be great if it can!

Hey mate, thanks for sharing the previous launch link here again. Since I have already answered Happy to know more about it.

Also, I have informed HN team about the two posts with same product as well.

Hey mate, thanks for sharing the previous launch link.

In this launch, i have improved the design and incorporated feedbacks and suggestions received from the community.

And i read that we can launch our product on HN twice, considering we are not spamming and should have some improvements from the last launch.

Happy to know more about it.

About Page Link: https://hn.boxpiper.com/about

Box Piper Hacker News aggregates news with a focus on computer science, technology and entrepreneurship, etc. from https://news.ycombinator.com/ and presents it in a much better way.

Stories are presented in a card image layout, which helps users to understand the relevance of an article and whether is it worth reading or not.

The top 10 stories are presented in a story mode similar to social media sites such as Snapchat/Instagram/WhatsApp/Facebook user stories. Also stories is bifurcated in two parts, top 10 and others. Those who wants to focus only top stories of the day, can use it.

HTTP links are highlighted with a sign, which indicates that the website loads over an insecure connection. It may redirect to an HTTPS connection, but user discretion is required.

A user profile page with recent activities is displayed which helps users to understand more about the author who publishes a story.

Right now, only 100 stories are presented but it'll extend in the future along with the source of News channels.

Keep Reading.

Tesler’s Law 5 years ago

Tesler’s Law, also known as "The Law of Conservation of Complexity", states that for any system there is a certain amount of complexity which cannot be reduced.

No matter which side you choose, complexity just doesn’t go away. All processes have a core of complexity that cannot be designed away. The only question is what handles it: "the system", or "the user".

By creating a control, the designer is making a choice, saying to the user in effect, “You handle this.” But if the system has to handle the complexity, it means all kinds of decisions have to be made for the user — your defaults have to be smart, and god help you if you get them wrong.

- Medium Article: https://odannyboy.medium.com/controls-are-choices-7de90363d0...

I tried to follow some of the design law's in https://hn.boxpiper.com/, but after reading these, there's a lot of improvements required.

Hi Guys, I’m not sure whether it’s a right forum or not but sharing it here!

I created a telegram bot that essentially aggregates Covid Resources information from the Internet to help you. It’s for India only.

https://t.me/CovidResourceBot https://web.telegram.org/#/im?p=@CovidResourceBot Either of the Telegram link will work(Telegram Issue).

Check and suggest improvements that can help more. Spread it with people for help.

A humble attempt to serve humanity through some kind of automation.
