It's against HN's rules to have promotional upvotes and/or comments in the threads—especially comments. I suppose your friends were just trying to help you out, but HN users are sensitive to this and consider it spamming. They're not exactly wrong, because the upvotes and comments we're talking about were not organic. We want genuine, curious conversation here, and this is not that.
Thank you for the warning and I completely understand. I didn't aggressively ask for upvotes/comments, but I did share the excitement from adding my own work to Show HN for the first time. I will stay away from sharing my HN submissions the next time.
Thx for checking this out! I will look into it - I don't generate the PDF at the moment, it's really the HTML that's getting sent to print. So not an easy change right now.
Love it! If you're continuing to build on this: are you planning to allow configuration of weekends, to fit different countries? (e.g. Israel + many muslim countries have Friday and Saturday)
Thx, great idea! This was a spur-of-the-moment kind of project. I will add analytics in the coming days and if people keep using it I will make improvements :)
