Exactly why PH is great. This is a useful tool, but not a venture backable company so it would never get TC attention.

yup, one reason why I think the "VC found company XYZ on PH" will become a tired headline. Most products aren't VC-backable, and that's not a bad thing, so when we put emphasis on "fundable = worth discussing" we miss a whole bunch of smart people building interesting stuff. //
100% agree. , a fun site with flashcards of interesting facts, is an example of this. It received over 150 upvotes and when was asked if it was a side project or business, he responded: "For now it's just a side project, but hopefully can grow into something bigger."

awesome. maybe we can figure out an interesting way to continue filling the funding gap btw venture and SBA loans. like a Puddle or other loan mechanism for PHers.
ooo! A Product Hunt would be interesting. Think we can get 10k people to contribute $5/mo to help product builders create cool stuff?
Hunter
I'd definitely be interested in contributing to anything which helps people build products they're passionate about.

Not new but new to me. Nice simple Mac application to let you toggle sleep mode on/off. Never let your Mac dim during a presentation again!
thanks for the reminder. I used to have this installed on my Mac before I reformatted.
yes! told me about this originally. Great for meetings.
Have been using this app for years, yet I still find myself recommending it to someone about every two weeks when their screen goes to sleep during a presentation. I'm most impressed by the staying power of this application, and with no new features. Over all my devices, this might only be matched by instagram, another product that has only evolved in VERY small increments since its launch years ago, yet I still use it daily.
+1 for a really nice icon and toggle functionality. Empty cup = off. Steamy cup = active. p.s. nice comments
Thanks Mark!
Been using it for a while - really simple little tool!
This is the first app I install on a new computer. So simple, yet so handy.
Been using for years. Works exactly as described 100% of the time. Great program to keep on your menu bar.
can never have enough caffeine ;) great find!
Caffeine is one of the first apps I install on any new Mac that I setup. So clutch.
I've been using Caffeine for years but rarely think about it, along with Flux.
