Awesome job finishing the site! On a personal note I spend a lot of time eating out, especially at really great restaurants (5 star) all over Miami and Fort Lauderdale, FL. I would love to start adding restaurants, comments, etc. to this app but there is no real "push" for me to do that. Maybe some gamification? Points/rewards/mentions/etc. so that I feel like i'm gaining something by contributing? Just a thought. There may be other people who feel the same way
That is an excellent point and something I've been thinking about as well. One thought I've had is adding some sort of rating system where people who are active on the site get promoted as 'Awesome people who have good taste' (working title). I'm also thinking about ways to make the site more useful on a personal level.
There is a way to add restaurants! Under the main search field in the header is a link to Search for a Restaurant. Enter the name of a restaurant and the location and YumHacker will return a list of possible matches. Endorsing a restaurant and it will be added to the database.
You still live in the 70s regarding your knowledge about these drugs. SARMs, siRNA and RNAi will be very popular in future - See stock valuations and research it's history.
I recommend informing about these, but advise everyone to avoid them. Peptid research is in the beginnings, don't make yourself a Guinea Pig.
Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARM), Small interfering RNA (siRNA) and RNA interference (RNAi) are way ahead of what you may know about this topic.
The reason I know about it, is because some idiots in the Gym always kept asking me about Steroids and I didn't know anything about it. Which was frustrating and led me to inform me bottom up about everything that's necessary to know. Including talks with regular Steroid consumers.
My Conclusion, taking these drugs is irresponsible and not worth it. Everything comes with it's side-effects. SARMs, siRNA and RNAi are making babysteps and there can be severe side-effects that you won't be able to lookup on a google search.
Does this mean that the outside investment of 150k is no longer available? I don't see whats to stop them from investing (150k) anyway, considering it wasn't part of YC in the first place.
In my opinion 80k is a little too low, especially for international founders or those with international teams. I agree, though, that advice from VC would be better in terms of building a business versus just throwing cash at the startup.
Then again it lowers the bar for international VC providers to start participating in this kind of model, making US-based funders a little less necessary.
It was approved on Saturday and as of today I've sold 8 copies. I wasn't really expecting to sell many as I put the price high and this was more of a simple project to dig into rubymotion. Thanks for the comment
Simple app yet fills a need I had when talking with people about fitness/training/health. RubyMotion is awesome and I highly recommend using it if you don't want to venture down Obj-C land.
I'm honestly terrible with photoshop so I don't really know how to make icons (or what they should look like). I thought about text but I think it wouldnt look right with the text right under it. I highly recommend rubymotion, it's absolutely awesome.
