This isn't really a place for relationship advice, but to frame it in the context of a startup, if a founder just won't talk about a decision you both need to make together, that's a huge red flag that maybe going into busine

Do a lot of these problems go away if you can afford to pay in cash for a diamond and it doesn't inhibit future purchasing decisions?

My one gripe is how it handles large files. It's definitely an issue because if you fuck up and "accidentally" open one, it's a bitch to get Atom to stop (you basically have to kill the process, which always feels hea

I don't agree that it's a string anti-pattern whatsoever. It's a clear signal that the person can interpret the meaning of a rule and adhere to it in a way that makes sense for the person who made the rule as well as the con

Probably not, to be honest. For a game like chess, the challenge is that there are so few things you can actually do. Inefficiencies aren't really a thing, every single move has a semi-discrete value. Starcraft however has all kin

The UI was a trivial enough component that it can be replicated by a dozen competitors, to suddenly become a hugely busy space such as it is now. Those people with money can easily be stolen out from under Slack, precisely because the

I don't understand why people keep saying it's not "easy" or IRC doesn't do history "well"? ZNC or another bouncer is plenty easy to set up and configure, and you get a full history of all messages in a c

What people are saying is that not only have the pieces to make Slack been around for awhile, but IRC has implemented those pieces successfully for 20 years. The only "innovation" Slack provided was the UI, and that's te
