The idea that anyone on HN is innocent of making statements similar to those he did are laughable, and posts just like them make the front page and are the most-upvoted every day. Are people not allowed to have opinions anymore? It isn't li

ITT: You neglect to read the two blog posts about the topic you're debating and cast a blanket statement about a guy who was just trying to help the brand and didn't understand the internal conflicts going on at the company. The designer wa

Case in point: touting Quartz, quite possibly the worst modern UX I've ever come across in the wild.

Totally agree, and I've seen completely unqualified people that I thought knew better do this and wished there was an (anonymous) opposite-of-endorsement.

I believe initially it does, but I know one of my co-workers was endorsed for a framework he'd never even heard of before and that our co-worker "endorsed because it sounded techie!" I believe you can even add custom ones for other people,

This has been my experience as well. Obviously something else to consider is that the author has held roles at various well-known companies, and from that alone I'd wager the amount of noise he receives is greater than the average Joe. I'll

I've missed them even with this on, simply because I also wade through/ignore a lot of other notification emails from Facebook (birthdays, events) or just don't check my email during travel/vacation. I've also seen the email, gone to the si

As someone that stopped using Facebook shortly after they rolled out the Timeline (ironically after I spent hours setting mine up in Developer mode), I have completely missed posts someone made on my wall, only to have to reply with an apol

I'm going to agree with you re:the opposite. The Web Design Served category (supposedly the best of the best on the site) posts some seriously awful stuff (stock photos, overuse of textures, bad typography, poor UX practices). When I emaile

For years, before Behance redesigned their layout (which I think was sometime last year), the way that it sorted projects when you stumbled across the site was by popularity, so the popular ones just kept getting more popular. A project cal

Great point about that quote. To me it sounds like an SEO salesman with the use of buzzwords instead of actually defining what it does and why it's important (mobile users accounting for x% of the web and growing). I know we're being short

A good design school doesn't make you a good designer. I've seen SCAD and RISD grads who couldn't design to save their life. With all design, it's about understanding the medium. For a lot of designers, that technical detail is what makes t

Guess I'm confused then, because looking at them at the small sizes on the site itself, they have these issues.

I'm just not impressed with Quora's design; I think her initial mockup (which was essentially a StackExchange clone) was better than where it's ended up. Every time I go there I get frustrated with something; having to click to read each th

Codepen.io and CSSDeck.com are the Dribbbles of code.

Oof, noticed this too. I only use them in small sizes so it isn't worth the upgrade if it's just going to make them fuzzy and thinned-out. :/

I think that's my biggest hangup with this. There was never a "Well, we're thinking about doing this with your photos, but we were wondering if you valued the service enough to pay for it instead?" There would have still been outrage, but p

Design and privacy issues aside, how they're forcing businesses to pay to talk to their opted-in customers isn't core to the product?

I love this concept and have been anxious since Pasquale's first Dribbble shot about it to try it out! I had some time to toy with it last night and here's what I came across (in Chrome) - - The blue steps/process didn't stand out very much

To branch off of your comment, which is the best description of it, I think it should be noted that for the past two years this subject has been the most nominated topic across all of our events for both information and security officers (t

His misinterpretation is getting it handed to him and the conflict of interest stuff re: The Verge and Instagram is something else to consider. I wouldn't trust a news outlet with so many close ties to companies like this.

My personal friendships with people employed by Google, EA and Microsoft have no affiliation with how much I support those companies.

Are you? Citing one situation where they pulled back doesn't account for all of the endless updates they made against people's wishes, most recently that whole thing where they don't give users a choice anymore at all.

I'm trying to figure out how you managed to get matte outlines on your transparent PNGs. This is making the logos hard to read and the t-shirt illustration edges look cheap. If you're not sure how to remedy this, I'd suggest using a solid b
