How technical or not you are has nothing to do with how much you care about the security of your email. LI is just hoping that they'll gain trust by being open about their process because they're counting on that "transparenc

Right, but I think that most people can see right through the "look guys, we're cool! we care!" crap when it's this tacky and confusing. Quite frankly I thought they would be way more outlandish and unusable in the conte

As a designer, this whole process is degrading, frustrating and reminiscent of the worst clients I've had throughout my career. I'm not sure if they are trying to make it look like they want to appease the people, but if I were wo

Agreed. As a designer, I don't want to waste space with this for two form inputs, not including the CVV. On pages asking for your CC information, there's generally a lot more than just this going on, and the possibility it creates

I viewed the site on in Chrome on a rMBP and it looked and loaded just as poorly. There's no excuse for having basic fallbacks or a preloading mechanism.

When I first moved to Portland, I lived on the same block as a wonderful little local coffee shop that served Stumptown. Man I love Stumptown. I would go there all the time, sometimes twice a day. The coffee and the food were great, but onl

To me it's more about who deserves the reward. $1.99 might not be a monetary tragedy, but it's giving someone a pat on the back that they may not deserve and asking for a refund for that amount just seems petty, so I'd rather do the researc

Seriously. The first thing I do if I strongly like or dislike an article is click the name/avatar to get more information about the author to better understand their background. Medium pushes me onto a page with the rest of their articles i

I love Chris Coyier for everything he's done for the front-end community, but between his CSS-Tricks layouts and Codepen.io, his aesthetic is much to be desired.

While I agree that it would have been nice, I don't think it was an oversight. In addition to the link posted on how they found people, it's also a bit of a double-edged sword as women are less likely to apply for these types of things. Thi

Having just had my boyfriend switch from 24/7 at-home freelance to working at his shop 7 days a week, this woman doesn't seem to understand the benefits she reaps from having someone at home and on-call most of the time (Do they have pets?

What a pretentious article. > Do NOT Use Black on White > The only reason I don't visit Quora is bad typography. Yeah, I am that crazy! Meanwhile, OP's body copy is a heavy slab-serif, his headers are a custom sans-serif without any

No matter what it was, did he learn from it? That's what matters in my book. If he was older, I might care more about the specifics of what he did since I think a lot of people get too comfortable with the lies they build around themselve

What a great idea; a lot less intimidating than doing it on your own or one-on-one. Interested in seeing how this plays out.

Studies show that it takes less than a second for visitors to determine - based on appearances - whether or not your site will bring them value. The Nielson Norman Group says that in addition to this, you only have ten seconds to provide wr

Some of the arguments here are that if you post something to the web, you can't be in control of where it ends up. While I agree with that sentiment on the whole, HN shouldn't be a place where you submit articles that are clearly just someb

Exactly why I'm leaving my company after ~3 years. There's absolutely no movement but lateral with a laughable pay raise, more responsibility in tasks that are unrelated to my skills and greater micromanaging. While I've learned a lot here,

I've found that if both users have their windows at full-size, it's fairly easy to read (at least, default Sublime Text 2 is readable) so long as the connection is good. As soon as either user adjusts, it shrinks too much unless you've got

I love the game in small doses, but it's very obvious there wasn't much diversification in the team that made it. Not because it would have curbed the offensiveness, but because after two or three hours of playing [as happens in larger grou

Thanks. I'd spent a good chunk of time on the initial post itself, so I opted to just see what the community did instead of responding to it. Thankfully, it was downvoted quickly and two people responded to him directly about it. In another

People seemed to miss this article when it was posted here when it was published. Surprised at some of the comments; they seemed to only read the headline before commenting as well. Like I said then, the social buttons didn't work for MailC

Ditto. Deciding to use a variant of my name here was something I went back and forth on (partly because I didn't want it associated with me at all, partly because I didn't want it to be gendered [1]). Ultimately I decided that I wanted to b

Reddit didn't go off of information that wasn't already being passed around on the police scanners and Twitter. Their guessing game was just much more public than others'.

Well sure, but being as I'm not interested in the new tracks - especially in a concert setting - I won't be seeing them live.
