Was in the same boat at my previous company, we used Mattermost because of privacy concerns with Slack. Eventually moved to Slack because the mobile options were not great on MMost and Slack was more polished. Boy, I mentioned Slack a lot.

Anywhere from $100k to $1m; their partner Michael Beirut was involved, so I would guess it's on the higher end of the scale.

I highly doubt that it's racial discrimination, but I'm not going to back that sentiment with 100% certainty, because you never know. However, the whole concept of a "coding bootcamp", literally they're bootcamps th

I was discussing the same topic with my coworkers when we heard the news. Yahoo's YUI could be the company's starting point at developing strong products and boosting Yahoo's relevance as a brand. It's a great library.

There really isn't a need to do it in the manner that was suggested. If a frontend developer wanted to provide a copy with comments, it's better to host it on github & comment the link in the css file.

Well her info is on the linkedin profile, so no need to make it easier for the internet lynch mob to find it.

Claims several times to be the grand-daughter of Henrik Ibsen. I have no reason to disbelieve this. But it's mildly interesting. I also found that interesting, but being that his two great-grand kids are male, I highly doubt she's a desce

I did my part by rescinding my DMCA when I realized the impact it was having and offered her my willingness to resolve this one on one. And I applaud you for that.

No, she claims she is covered under fair use because she doesn't make any money from it, blah blah blah. Plus, her claim of being a lawyer makes the whole matter quite baffling.

A lot of people fail to understand what's legally protected by fair use.

Apparently many of her sites used that specific photo. Hell, her business page on Facebook still uses it as its cover photo. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Schwager-Consulting-Marketing...

Ideally, tipping shouldn't be expected to compensate for a lower wage and rather should be given based on merit. But in regards to your mention of the market and how it controls the paradigm between wages and tips, I personally agree that p

And the injustice is in the system itself. An employer that decides to pay 10-15% less because that's how the market has arranged it to be is bullshit. I'm not saying I don't understand how the market works, I just like to call bullshit whe

You're totally misconstruing my words. I am not against tipping or feel that it's an injustice that servers expect a tip, hell, I've done almost every grimy job in the restaurant business; but what I'm saying is that a server feeling entitl

Just because it's organized around the idea of tipping, does not justify the notion that it's not extra cash coming out of the customer's pocket. I'm not against tipping, I just find it idiotic that people have this notion that just because

Now that's just absurd, feeling entitled to receive extra cash for doing your job is ass-backwards. Taking an order, turning in the order, bringing out the order and then delivering the check is part of the job, any service that exceeds tha

This is true, but in my experience, the best UX people are even more excellent at figuring out what is NOT important and getting rid of it (or not investing any time in those things at all). I believe that's what the OP implied when he st

This is the "left-brained" part of UX, while there is the forgotten "right-brained" portion, which is typically based on the psychological impact of copy, typography, and visual polish. What you're referring to is the UI, the aesthetic de

However, to HuffPo & TNW's credit, they do have original content that is mildly interesting. Mashable's original content is laughable at best.

I might have to steal/quote that last line. "Move fast and break things. Edit later." Perfect.

It would be sort of funny if you included copy/pasted comments from HN in your PR-cleanup post.
