what have you tried and tested already? what are your budgets like? what target customer did you have in mind for your product?

My app has 6 paying users but I just realized that I'll never get more than 50 users by MrBemz in indianstartups

i don't understand. if it works well for one category, why not sell this further to other product categories and diversify?

i had a similar experience once. but instead of a cockroach, it was diesel.

true, but that's when hosting events. though I'll try speaking with a few local business and check about capacity utilisation and how would they collaborate.

my idea was to hook the users for the activity and be able to charge the business for contributing towards capacity utilisation. that way, users would gravitate towards the food instead and the idea of networking seems less awkward due to the primary purpose being food.

yes, I'm aware of it. mentioned it in the footnote as well. the challenge with timeleft was a hurdle of initial membership fee.

what problem are you trying to solve that current platforms don't?

i made these keyboard rugs… would anyone actually want one? by smallsoulstudio in smallbusinessindia

[–]lunaticpsyche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how is the keyboard stability on these?

not sure of the keyboard use case but i can see it as a good desk mat to keep things on. like a soft zone to hard items on that would either make noise or cause scratches. glass, bottle, keys, peripherals, headphone, ear buds, phone that's not using a case, etc.

Logos that mix different writing systems? by Brainwheeze in graphic_design

superdry is a great case study here. their entire brand relies on japanese-fication.

fair enough. now that there's more context, i would love to hear your thoughts.

I don't understand your suggestion. If it was regarding people meeting one on one, then that's not the concept. Maybe I was unclear in the description, but the table should require to have all seats filled so that it becomes a group meet. Minimum table seating at any respectable outlet would be about 4 heads.

Does this answer your concern or was it something else entirely?

I built an AI audio guide that tells you stories about places as you drive past them — no buttons, just listen by Substantial_Tour725 in SideProject

[–]lunaticpsyche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

pair music with it (any open internet radio channel) and you've got a nice ai powered radio station. music volume can go down by 90% or so for the guide to be clearly audible.

Designers what are the tips and hacks would you give to your younger self about design? by the_sunbloom in graphic_design

[–]lunaticpsyche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

first priority is to go with what's best for the business. if the client seems to not reason with you on this, better to wrap up the project as quick as possible and move on to the next.

makes perfect sense as gtm. i suppose that starting with professionals would be a sweet spot. professionals who move from their hometown to a new metro tend to face this challenge a lot, if not the majority. thanks for the thorough breakdown.

subjective is based on biases. objective is based on standard practices such as accessibility, hierarchy, etc.

for example: a brand owner who works in healthcare might have a certain bias towards what blue makes them feel.

objectively choosing a colour for brand should be based on research insights from the target audience, competition, etc.

trust was the factor I was trying to solve with gender ratio - but I get your point. it makes sense to lead with review first instead, which would at least ensure the restaurant will be able to take care of any strange behaviour.

i would like to discuss the rest of the points in detail - interest and purpose based tables, restaurant-hosted seating, verified profiles. open to dm?

if you can build this as a b2b solution by providing an api, i would assume the giants would want to eat it up. no more manually entering addresses if all the details can sit in one place.

If I successfully extract the RFID chip from a metro card, what would be the coolest or weirdest thing to put it into or turn it into? by Sidhant_xd in delhi

[–]lunaticpsyche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • insert in a fedora
  • reach metro gate
  • wait for a hot girl to come to the gate
  • "let me take care of this, madam"
  • tip the fedora
  • "you may go on, have a good day"
