Show HN: The 1.0 of my Slack app – Visual Officehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23272759Hi HN,I am happy to say the v1.0 of my Slack app, Visual Office, is ready today! https://www.visualoffice.app/My obsession with extending an office metaphor into Slack started last year, when I was managing a remote team of engineers at a company that is 75% remote. Despite loving my work from home days, I couldn't help but notice that I was closer to my co-workers I saw in person than the ones I interacted with remotely.For the most part this was minor, but important, interactions. The banter when we first came into the office, lunches taken together more often, and a general awareness of what they were focused on. On the other hand, it was harder to setup social time with my remote teammates (I didn't want to ping and interrupt them) and the context I had about what they were currently working on was often based on signals that got piped into slack in the form of jira, zendesk, or sales bot messages. Not an ideal way to build a relationship, especially outside my immediate team.VisuaMay 22, 2020 2:54 PM

Launch HN: Taiv (YC W20) – Replace TV commercials with content people care abouthttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22666658Hey HN!We’re Noah, Avi, and Jordan from Taiv (https://www.taiv.tv). We make a box that lets sports bars and other businesses replace live TV commercials with content their customers actually care about.A year and a half ago, I was sitting in a local bar and saw a commercial showing that the same beer I was drinking was cheaper across the street. The place I was in had other drinks on specials for way cheaper and great happy hour food, but they didn’t have an effective way to tell me about it. I ended up walking away feeling ripped off when I could have left a happy customer if they had been able to more effectively make me aware of their specials.It got me investigating how businesses communicate with their customers. I found out that half of all restaurants close within a year and that one of the most common reasons they fail is because they’re unable to educate their customers about everything they offer and what events they have coming up.

Ask HN: Does it help moderators if we report kittens?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22443976Hi everyone,Ok, it's Friday and the question will sound very silly but I was wondering what the community would think about it.You might be aware that big social medias platforms (Facebook, YouTube, Twitter..) are getting their content moderated by farms of people, causing a lot of mental health issues. It's pretty sad to see people being payed with minimum wages with no decent working conditions and no health support, especially from companies promoting the fantastic working conditions. You can find a lot of content online about this topic.I assume the content reaching their screen is the one that is reported by the community. So, if we all report one or two content a day, something very cute to see, will we make moderator life better by dilluting the quantity of horror they are meant to see?I think about these 3 scenarios, I feel the number 2 is the most plausible.1. This will just push them to decrease the time allowed to moderate a content, so making their conditions worse. 2. PlatFeb 28, 2020 4:36 PM

Launch HN: Probably Genetic (YC W19): At-home DNA testing for every genehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22436022Hi Hacker News, We’re Harley and Lukas from Probably Genetic (https://www.probablygenetic.com). We built an at-home physician-ordered DNA test that covers all genes and looks for pathogenic variants related to thousands of rare genetic conditions.Why rare genetic conditions? It may seem like a niche problem but there are ~400 million people worldwide with a rare genetic condition, half of which are currently undiagnosed. To put this into perspective, it’s estimated that 1 in 10 Americans has a rare condition and while each of the individual ~10,000 conditions is rare, the population that suffers such conditions is larger than cancer and HIV combined. Furthermore, for the patients that have been diagnosed, it takes on average 8 years for doctors to identify their conditions. You’ve already heard of rare genetic conditions, you might just not be aware of it. Remember the Ice Bucket Challenge for ALS? Most of these diseases initially look like more common conditions, such as autism, chronFeb 27, 2020 6:17 PM
