New comment by michaelvillar in "Ask HN: How did you earn your first $100 and first $1k online?"

michaelvillar — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 20:20:24 +0000

As a teenager in early 2000s

First $100 = selling PhpBB skin

First $1,000 = website contracting

Show HN: Made it so time tracking isn’t the worst part of your day

michaelvillar — Tue, 13 Jun 2023 16:11:38 +0000

Many of our users at Height work for development and design agencies where building timesheets is a weekly responsibility — so we built a native timer to make it easy for them to track time on their work (tasks) and then sync to their invoicing/billing app. Currently we have two integrations to Toggl and Harvest, but would be interested to hear where else are people tracking time?

Quick overview:

- Time can be tracked directly to tasks and is synced in real time to Toggl or Harvest. (We used webhooks for Toggl, and for Harvest a 1 min poll to fetch any updated timers)

- Timers in Toggl or Harvest can connected to Height tasks by just pasting in the task ID.

- Edits to timers are synced across both apps.

It's actually not based on other tools, it's automating tasks within Height.app.

Does that make sense?

michaelvillar — Tue, 07 Jun 2022 17:43:54 +0000

Loved using Interval in the past few months at height.app. I highly recommend it if you don't want to bother building UI within your internal admin pages.

You turn around and see Father Féval standing behind you. He looks very old and frail. He doesn't even have any teeth left.

> kill him

You quickly shoot Father Féval dead, but he still manages to dodge your bullets. You run over to him and punch him several times before he falls down dead.

It's nice! Quick feedback for UX improvement: let the user upload a file first, detect the extension, then ask what file type to convert to.

They could use `pushState` to change the query without reloading the page?
