Hey HN community! Simao here, founder of Lampant.

Lampant is the virtual suggestion box for the modern workplace. It's not unlike an innovation platform, where the organization leverages the ideas submitted by employees.

People submit, vote and discuss ideas; management is accountable to respond. Activity in the platform (like getting ideas implemented or helping others) gets you awards.

Two big "goals": - increase employee engagement and tenure - find great new initiatives to improve any and all aspects of the organization.

Looking to get some feedback from the community, especially around: - clarity of the value proposition - easy to work with - target audience (big(er) companies I'm guessing) makes sense?

thanks everyone <3

Having the ability to see where and how clothes are made is awesome, but having the ability to buy directly in your website would be amazing. It would makes things way simpler for buyers IMO. Not sure how feasible that would be of course, but one can dream right? :)

Having expose of some of the suppliers in the homepage would also be great. Knowing them in a bit more depth (maybe interviews, case studies, etc) would be nice.

Awesome stuff. I've asked myself countless times what is behind the "made in X" claim. Lovely to see all the details and be able to buy with full knowledge.

I received a message in facebook promoting some album. I was hoping to be redirected to the app (as usual) but this time, the web version opened. I tried it in Chrome but no luck until I open the same link through facebook.

I guess the important thing here is that this system is isolated from the rest of the adsense platform.

In the university where I attend, Universidade do Minho (Portugal), functional programming it's the first programming class freshmen are given, computer science and informatics engineering students alike. It is a very effective way to teach programming, structures and a lot of math theory behind it. It also helps students who didn't come from "professional schools" where they teach C or Java to be in the same level as those who did. The language they teach here is Haskell. We have 3 classes during our course where we work with Haskell. It may seem a very academic language, geared to research, but the real world usage has grown very much in the recent years. Not only Haskell but earlang and lisp as well. So I think it's a great way to introduce the concepts to first year students and "first comers" to 'our' (dark :p) side.
