Safe from the Losing Fight is a personal blog at losingfight.com about programming and business. Since 2007, 8 different Hacker News readers have linked it 8 times, most often “A Postmortem of Failed Products”. No feed was found, so read it on the site itself.

Why HN links it
The thread is about pricing iPhone apps. One commenter points to another post by the same author as a better read, and no comment addresses the writing in this post directly.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
