Hi all, I'll be around for a couple hours if anyone has any questions.




Fun game. Works well on iPhone 13, but doesn’t work on iPhone SE (screen doesn’t fit and there is no way to scroll). Another thought, would be great to see how score compares to others or the average, best score, fastest, etc).


Oooh thanks will fix this asap. Yes good idea to add some stats


Should be working on SE now I think. Safari responsive design mode not accurate :(


This looks great, congrats! I’ve tried a number of photogrammetry software and they typically had challenges. One question: are you able to determine the size of the object?


Goal seek does this. It is a built in capability.


Both are built in but goal seek is limited in what can be done in the loop, and doesn’t use the in between steps in the seek.

Here’s a simple excel for loop with iterative calculation.

Here’s an example from chemical engineering of iterative calc. https://www.aiche.org/chenected/2017/03/excel-tip-6-use-exce...

There’s also an evolutionary and linear solvers for optimization problems, but that’s again something that’s more of an add in.


But you have to use it manually. You could make a macro and automate it, but it would be nice to have function that is built-in.


A large part of this appears to be non cash expense associated with stock compensation that was recognized due to an investment round where they let employees and investors sell shares at above “market value”. Can helpful to look at cash flow.


Some unsolicited advice for any Uber employees here on HN: You may want to seriously consider selling all vested shares. The price not be what you are expecting, but, from my own personal experience, and "most expert advice", it can be better to sell and diversify. Many one-time high-fliers, such as Zynga (where I previously worked), never got back to their IPO or lockup expiry price.


I was at Groupon at IPO. IPO’d at $20. Dropped to $3.50 by the time lockup ended. I sold because I needed the cash. 7 years later, it’s trading at $2.90. The market isn’t perfect, but shenanigans with private company valuations are usually worse.

Take granto’s advice.


One click Hugo cms [0] which provides a user friendly front end.

Thanks, but we don't have the budget necessary for Netlify Identity. At least last time I checked, it is only free for a very limited number of users.


Great visualizations and simple clean presentation. I tried to use a number of these simple tools to evaluate investment properties but they were usually too high level. I ended up building my own very detailed spreadsheet where the inputs can be tailored very specifically. I know it's not "software" in the HN since, but I made the Google Sheet available online [0] here if any one wants to use it. Note that this is a shared demo so your data will be overwritten by other users.
