- brashrat 10y agofew things grind my gears like hipsters telling me how much THEY care about products being usable LIKE IT'S SOME SORT OF NEW IDEA, like they are the ONLY ONES WHO CARE. beards and winter hats in summer seem, counter intuitively, to incubate a lot of unique little snowflakes.
- digi_owl 10y agoIf you want to preserve snow through the summer, heavy insulation is key.
- thevibesman 10y agoThis seems like your baggage not the author's; I'm not sure that she ever said what she meant by hipster. I read it differently.
- katpas 10y agoSo my use of the word hipster (and the title of the post) is a reference to this quote which I think is the original source. "At SXSW, Rei Inamoto, the chief creative officer for AKQA, shared a nugget of wisdom that I’ve observed to be true: “To run an efficient team, you only need three people: a Hipster, a Hacker, and a Hustler.” - http://www.forbes.com/sites/andyellwood/2012/08/22/the-dream-team-hipster-hacker-and-hustler/#227c8f2168a8 http://www.forbes.com/sites/andyellwood/2012/08/22/the-dream... It was a colloquial way to get across the point that I couldn't code or design at the point I was looking for a role at a start-up.
