My first non tech related startup. After a year of work we just launched last week. It’s been surprising how much overlap there is between software product development and ‘real’ building. Also how different they are. Anyway, I’ve never lau

I don't know how Github runs, but it sounds nothing like Holacracy. The author is confused (as are many people on this thread). Six months ago, I switched my company (over 50 full time employees in 3 cities) to Holacracy. I'm here

Yes. I have been very surprised at the discrepancy between the level of dialogue. When the discussion on HN is around almost anything, I find myself often learning, and surrounded by comments that are smarter, and more informed than any I

I'm impressed by this statement. Regardless of what you think of Adria's actions, it's not hard to imagine that the last two weeks must have been hellish for her. I think it's brave and noble for her to make (what seems to me) to be an atte

If you are a man reading this, I invite you to: a. Resist the urge to pick apart the OP's life and criticize how/what she said. b. Honestly reflect, without shame or blame, about what you know of sexism. What do you understand of it? What d

For the record. Devbootcamp would not have been possible without HN. Just over a year ago I posted this: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3267133 And this community's response is what convinced me to ditch my startup and start devbootc

Almost every higher ed institution has scholarships for under-represented populations. If you can think of better ways to encourage more balance in our industry I am sincerely open to suggestions.

Why, oh why, do you have to pit Dev Bootcamp against a CS degree? Nobody is saying that algorithms and compilers should be dismissed, or that CS degrees should be abolished. That's certainly not our position. Education is a nuanced and rich

The recent rash of articles on HN re: sexism leaves me feeling hopeful that our industry is inching closer to being a place were women feel welcome. I would love to see men handing out these cards too.
