Ask HN: What business processes still waste time every week?
Ask HN, I’m a software engineer and founder. Over the years, I’ve built backend and cloud systems and created a few internal tools to address recurring operational issues. Before spending time building anything new, I’m trying to understand what problems are actually common today. So I’m curious: what’s a process in your business that still costs you time every week and shouldn’t? For example: something manual, spreadsheet-heavy, or a tool you tried and abandoned. If you’re comfortable sharing publicly, I’d appreciate hearing about it. Thanks. 1 comments on Hacker News.
