Buttsss: A Case Study
- bifrost 7y agoOMG this is excellent.
- anigbrowl 7y agoWish this had existed at the beginning of my career.
- LyndsySimon 7y agoIt's a shame it has come at the tail of your career, instead. :(
- tenaciousDaniel 7y agopun intended?
- LyndsySimon 7y agoMy puns are almost always intended. I would go so far as to say that punning is my superpower.
- ryancnelson 7y agoI'd love to see a correlation graph showing the time this was posted to HN, and the server load on the Slack-emoji image-importing service. Pretty sure these are going to become hotkeys in a lot of workplaces.
- jedberg 7y agoI sure hope not. I can't think of anything more inappropriate.
- nxpnsv 7y agoMy new goto for animated buttsss.
- notathing 7y agoFinally, this was predicted in the Idiocracy documentary. It seems the timeline is accelerating. http://imoviequotes.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/202-Idiocracy-quotes.png http://imoviequotes.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/202-Idioc...
- bitwize 7y agoWhile I believe this is a clbuttic in the making, I have to wonder about the professional appropriateness of such a thing, especially in $CURRENT_YEAR.
- larkeith 7y agoThis seems like the sort of thing that will get used in many small teams' internal communications, and occasionally cause awkward situations when someone outside the team gets wind of them. They're definitely not appropriate for all workplaces, but for small, more informal teams, this sort of thing can help build a culture and encourage teamwork. It really depends on the company and unit culture.
- bitwize 7y agoIt sounds like a recipe for selective enforcement. You may think you have a team culture that can be chill about this sort of thing, but it only takes one complaint to HR -- or to Twitter -- to retroactively turn your cartoon butt into a symptom of a hostile work environment.
- notathing 7y agoExactly. These butts are highly problematic. They promote an unhealthy and unattainable butt image. We need more butt diversity, more real butts - thicc butts, old butts, slagging butts.
- bitwize 7y agoHow it will play out in reality is, a female presenter who presents a slide with a butt in it will be considered to be indulging in "lol so random XD" humor and given a pass, but if a male presenter used a similar slide it would be a CoC violation, the punishment for which is a summary ban from all open source conferences forever.
- roddux 7y agoHow did this trash make it to the front page of HN?
- secondstring 7y agoDoes anyone know what app the kanban board screenshot is about 25% of the way down the page?
- pablostanley 7y agoThat's using Notion! https://www.notion.so/ https://www.notion.so/ It's a notes app with which you can do a lot of cool stuff! I know, cuz I'm the author. lol
