Great story, thanks for sharing. Chipper Bro is THE MAN, he deserves the pay he gets! I have never been into an HQ as welcoming as Patagonia's. The cafeteria alone is worth a visit!

I've done a lot of work with Patagonia, visited their HQ numerous times, and have become friends with a handful of their employees. They are not driven by profit, but by a will to do what is right in the world and for their customers.

I write apps for iPhone. I have a dongle that gives me power, connects to my iPhone, and connects to an extra monitor. I'd rather carry around a dongle that weighs less than an ounce than add 2 lbs of weight to my laptop to accomadate

I have the dongle with USB, HDMI and USB-C. I have not hit a scenario where I was searching for another port, and I've had the machine since launch. Honestly, it's a great laptop and is far more functional than those (who have no

My team just got a Cordova app through the apple review process as of yesterday. So, data point #2! I think as long as you try to adhere to Apple's app review guidelines it doesn't matter if you used Cordova or developed nativel
