Typo in there, the question is - name one widely used collaboration tool that is open sourced specifically in enterprise customers? I’d follow that up with, of the major enterprise collaboration tools, which have support for Linux natively

When it comes to collaboration tools used in business, especially the enterprise space, that is open source and used widely? I personally think Skype* is amongst the worst tools in the particular space. (Which is my personal opinion). I f

Once you started moving up the chain with Win3, etc, throw in config.ini and program.ini amongst others. So many painful memories or is that nostalgia.

Early employees get fucked over by later hires in terms of both salary and equity.

The blow back on this change was so bad the ratings in the iOS App Store tanked to 1 Star. It crept back up over time. Early testing indicated people were not happy. The people involved made their impact, got their promos and moved on. Wh

The PMs in charge of this particular design choice did not listen to external or internal feedback. That is a mistake regardless of the product, space, etc.

You are just of an age where the periodical wasn't really relevant any longer as another poster mentioned -- it started it's decline in the early 2000s. EE Cummings was known for way more than just the village voice.

I’ve had online bill pay sites - typically banks - fail with some tracker blocking enabled.

Convicted yes. Known - arrested over a dozen times for such in one case. Santa Cruz mostly doesn’t give tickets or cite in cases of misdemeanors these days given nothing is done.

California did better with balanced government. Republican Gov and democratic legislature. There was some semblance of balance. Without that balance, we see prop 47 and 57. Local communities using those as an excuse to not really do much

For communities already pushing the extremes of what Prop 47 and Prop 57 allow, this will be one more blow to the common citizenry. Places like Santa Cruz have a very high recidivism rates where serial bike thieves, petty theft, even viole

Jails and Zones did their jobs before LXC was a thing. The better technology doesn’t always win out — see Windows history.

Seems more relevant to Coachella than Burning Man. Concert away from people, not novel, just interesting. Pre-real BMan organization - definitely cacophony society, but also those with extended interest like shooting galleries, etc were th

Interesting to see YC embrace someone who went on leave at MSFT due to injuries of a bike accident... or so the news claimed. Yet popped up at Baidu/etc. Next up YC will hire the Amazon Exec that puffed himself up and was fired before

Netflix used to have decent content. Now, it's mostly Netflix originals and an occasional surprise and lots of not great content. Most of the services for their "subscriber level" are the same -- hulu and prime being others

Howdy! These were old logging/mining/horse trails that are all over. Read up on Foote Crossong Road - quite interesting. I’m up by Gold Lakes Hey/Graeagle. Ended up here and enjoying the nature. A tad remote at times.

I’m actually 45 min from Truckee - near Gold Lakes Highway. So I was including that time :) The roads are fun to explore, but you shouldn’t be on a schedule doing so.

I live just north of Truckee. One day my GF had to go do some surveying over towards Nevada City. The easy way would have been out to 80, down to NC, and survey. Probably 2-2.5 hours of driving. I had the day free and said, "hey, l

I live in a rural community where within the county and neighboring counties, cattle is a big deal. That said, the cows up here are fat and happy and have space to roam. Compare to the cattle pastures in the central valley where the cows

"Verified users should be able to post what ever they want" quoting someone from FB was a headline I recall flying by on multiple news sites today.

Rental cars is an interesting one. The Munich airport rental car companies contract with a third party in returns. Myself and a friend were both told by the rental companies that the third party is incentivized to come up with BA scratches

Purchasing a house in Truckee, while not Palo Alto expensive, still isn’t cheap. There are some decent restaurants there. Reno can actually be surprising when it comes to food choices. If one relies on work in the Bay Area, the remoteness

This. I split time between the Bay and up in north eastern Ca. Reality is, aside from housing, day to day costs are really no different - gas, food, utilities. I’m fortunate to have that flexibility, but percentages mask a number of thin

Works fine if you have developer tools enabled (advanced tab) and open java-script console window. End up with a multi-colored block (orange, green, and black for me) with the link in the middle.

Downvotes without comment? Always fun. Try living/spending time talking to people outside Sac or SF. Bay Area born/native/raised... spending solid time in the large section of the state east of Chico. It’s actually refresh

As previously mentioned, the split seems engineered to amplify the Democrat party representation for the current state of CA (basically tripling it). The majority of the large land mass that makes up "Northern CA" in the three wa

Sam Brannon who started the first paper in SF and hyped the Gold Rush was a mormon and did quite well for himself (considered the first gold rush millionaire). Mormons also were amongst the early workers at Sutter's Mill.
