Transporting bulky or heavy items can be impractical by bike or public transport, as in when shopping or moving. People with ilnesses and/or mobility issues also come to mind. Cars' carrying capacity and weatherproofing are useful

Hey, thanks! Yeah, that’s correct. I’m using auth0, so it’s trivial to add more authentication methods too. Is there a specific one you’d need?

Thanks for checking it out and sorry about that bug! Do you mind shooting me a quick email at pedro@quickintro.app so I can troubleshoot it with you?

As a solution architect visiting clients in Europe and North America, I struggled to capture names and roles of people in meetings and workshops. That led to lots of awkwardness and missed opportunities. All meeting management apps I found

I did, and use it in the company slack, email, salesforce, etc. Like it or not, others respond to our image. Using a professional photo is a great way to influence that response.

That's actually a great suggestion and I'm ashamed to admit it never occurred to me. I'll definitely share it internally. Thanks!

I'm helping hire developers here at HelloFresh and I thought of this a lot. A surprising amount of people don't maintain a very impressive public profile (me included, tbh). These people need the opportunity to showcase their skil

Same here. It's very annoying.

I do. Alone, I get distracted easily. Around people, I'm less likely to browse away from work because I don't want to be seen as a slacker. At home or the office, I get no sense of urgency. At a coffee shop, there's all sorts

"How many users to do you have today?" is not meaningless. Each user is a person, give or take a few bots, sharing their way of life and witnessing others'. Without editorialization or censorship. The product may or may not b

I think it needs to be very clear for the athlete what brands are on the platform and who they're sponsoring. Also, while I think it's cool that your platform solves a pain point (getting sponsored) for the athlete, please don&#x2

About time! With so many startups based in Lisbon, it's kind of surprising we didn't do this sooner :)

1. Just out of curiosity, could you please share what that tool is? 2. Like iffyuva said, I believe HipChat has that option. As does Campfire. The thing is maybe those groups aren't willing to pay for such a solution?

by PedroCandeias 13y ago
I would suggest leaving your comfort zone. Developers like myself have a tendency to reinvent the wheel, as in, solve problems like online team chat over and over again. Because that's what we know first hand and are comfortable with.

Really like the What's Around Me button. It's a good way to immediately show people what outpost can do for them. Before clicking it I wasn't sure, as the homepage copy is a bit vague.

This notion has been floating around for a while now and it seems less and less unlikely. I for one am not willing to accept a company taking charge of my ID. Actually, the day facebook asks me for my ID will be the day I quit it. It's tota

Just went through the signup process. There should be a textbox for those of us who don't maintain great github profiles to say a few words about ourselves.

I launched Threddie.com two years ago by submitting to web app directories like appstorm.net . It was a manual and repetitive process which bored me half to death, but it still yielded better long term results than posting on HN & reddi

I agree. Like everything else, the "comments are failures" statement should not be taken as dogma. That's why I set up textmate to show me comments in a bright color; if they're there, they're there for a reason.

by PedroCandeias 14y ago
Comments can be seen as failures to express the meaning of the code clearly[1]. I recently began experimenting with a coding style in which blocks of more than 5 lines get refactored into methods with self explanatory names and arguments an

Like you said, user feedback is one thing and usage stats quite another. I learned from threddie (so far my only SaaS which got any traction) that feedback should be taken with a Gibraltar-sized grain of salt. Often, people tell you your ap

There was no compliance issue. Apple already had 39 certified devices, they just chose to pull the EPEAT sticker off. Then they put it back on. Why they did that is up for debate. Source: http://blogs.wsj.com/cio/2012/07/06/apple-removes-g

I don't think their products changed much in a couple of days. Some are still EPEAT compliant, some are not, just like last week.

True. I guess the ideal is to be seen as someone who is generous but has high expectations and will not hesitate to terminate the relationship and move business elsewhere.

I don't think the Op is getting as much love as he deserves. Many of the intangible pieces that make up the quality of a product or service go out the door when we’re getting a deal. They’re doing a favor and sometimes when we barga
