Read that comment ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7701017 ), it gives more insights on why it was "impossible" to get access to them. I agree this should be a core principle: no access, no involvement. Except

Yes I had shares in the company. Technically, there were two companies: - a holding where the cofounders owned shares as of 52, 30, 12 and 6 percent. This company had no business activity and no employee. I owned 6 percent of its 100K c

I bet on people intelligence rather than their ignorance. I will eventually have to scale my explanations only if I remain for a too long time on the first page of HN ;-) Actually this is the very first time I hear a comment about being nic

Interesting question, as it is a regular debate with the US/FR startup ecosystem. Hiring is longer than harder: I already knew and contacted directly some of the engineers I wanted to hire. I also used GitHub and requested candidates t

Oh I understand better the critique now: yes it is my personal blog (the initial startup website does not exist anymore). I refreshed the design recently (like, 2 weeks ago). I used http://lamb.cc/typograph/ with a &qu

Yep you are right, this is part of the wrong income/outcome balance. The Head of marketing said she could not handle the load so we needed to hire someone else. We were mitigated about that. The hiring has been made against our will, a

"Glad" to read this. Obviously my English can be improved. I hope people are not bleeding too much from their eyes ;-)

We agree this should be the case. And eventually bank account reports should be available to anyone in the company as long as the details do not create a possible business threat. On the other hand, I requested the account details but never

Are you proposing to copy-edit the blog post? If so, this is kind and much appreciated :-) If you have a GitHub account you can directly edit the content through the following URL, and propose your changes. > https://github.co

Oups sorry about that. What is your device config? Because so far I tested only on a Nexus 5.

The top salaries were roughly 3K€ per month. Officially and speaking for myself. Without the detailed accountancy we can only speculate about it. We built a working software using Node.js and Chrome Extensions in less than 3 months, to reac

Fair point, especially as I thought I have been acknowledging my mistakes enough. They are concentrated in the "Ignoring problems" part, mainly. I blame myself to have ignored the problems, and not to have acted on them. The overc

Yep that was not the point I wanted to express (what did the company do). I shallowly explained it as well: we hardly described our own product, making it difficult to read from a market perspective. As a sentence: Web opinions miner and ne

Well, "Oncle" translates as "Uncle" and Thomas is my first name. It is a French pun I chose 10 years ago; and I definitely not meant to promote slavery or whatsoever. I am more a humanist kind of person. Sadly at the tim

Hey guys these are excellent feedbacks! I discovered too late this behaviour was typical, and you confirm it even more… I wish we had sought this kind of trustful insights beforehand. We actually thought our lawyer was helping us but you kn

Yep you are right for the snark. Still, "valid point" is very subjective. I'll think about it, yet I do not have any improvement in mind to preserve space, breathing and readability.

Very good question! The process has been initiated way before (a year before actually). It took 4 months to get the money because the business plan and everything has been made for the company launch. Think of: 1. 2010: the project initiate

Yep this is crazy. I think this is tight to the personality of the guys allowing the expenses. In that case, the "I want to make sure you don't need my money" investor advice makes a lot of sense: they want to make sure your

Oh that's an interesting approach; glad you coined it :-) Could you create another Gist with how you would see your URL built with Imager? And ping @oncletom in it. Maybe something like ``` http://cropper.onefinestay.com&#x2

by oncletom 13y ago
Yes that's something that has been overlooked and which is going to be sorted. It will mostly be `imager-js` in npm and bower registries.

You should provide the feedback on the Github repository, it will be easier to address a solution for that :-) 1. how do you indicate the crop/anti-tamper in your URL? What is the URL structure of your responsive images? 2. you can fin
