Reduced discoverability is the exact issue XBOX Live's interface has had since they updated it -- it's harder to differentiate between content I've paid for, their internal marketing and external advertisements to the point where I delibera

http://www.squarespace.com/ and http://www.virb.com/ are going to have the best looking pre-defined templates. If this person is wanting something for a portfolio, http://www.cargocollective.com/ has some good stuff. http://salon.io/

A friend's ex-girlfriend was plastered on a site like this some years ago by another ex's friends. She was underage in the photos and it wouldn't surprise me if middle and high schoolers use a service like this as much if not more than thos

Very cool! I know quite a few people who are interested in both contributing and learning from a service like this, myself included.

Even as a designer, the process of creating new invoices isn't this easy even when I have a pre-existing template, so this is awesome. Is there a possibility that I could upload my own layouts and make them available for myself others down

Because awareness is going to be his downfall; this type of service should simply not exist.

I'm looking for an alternative to both, after having left Spotify after their Facebook dealings and because Rdio has no clue what they're doing when it comes to design, UX, their library and their suggestions. On top of that, their feedback

Don't know why you're being downvoted - I thought the exact same thing. It looks like it's from 2002, not 2012.

I can't even count on one hand conversations in the past 6 months I've had with co-workers and friends in which I've had to explain why I don't want kids and "Well.. wait, what are you going to DO with your life then?!" One of these co-work

It's like a tornado learned how to use Photoshop and just starting slinging Layer Effects everywhere without a reason. The website itself is just as much a mess.

Good to see more music apps! I assume this isn't the first time you've been asked this, but how does this differ from http://loopyapp.com/ ? I've been using Loopy for awhile and love how intuitive it [generally] is but I do wish there were

This is really nice, good work! I think the print icon should be an actual printer rather than an ink droplet though.

Great reply, and [official] welcome to HN! I have a question, so here's some backstory: I went to a design and development 'placement' agency because they touted a technical prowess unlike others in the area, but when I sat down with them,

Front-end devs are absolutely developers. A better question is why we allow people who don't know how the web works to design for it.

Sure it does. One's inability to see that they can't speak on behalf of everyone else in the industry because what worked for them isn't the One True Answer does everyone a disservice. Pageviews and a chance at sounding important or intelli

Looks interesting, but using Helvetica Nueue Light/Extra Light for headers was a poor accessibility choice.

Ditto. As much as people complain about Reddit on here, the exact same effects are taking place and pushing irrelevant content to the top. Worse, this is somehow acceptable, but being lax in the comments isn't. So you've got gossip-blog hea

Absolutely. I realize that this is all speculation at this point, and a question I have relating to the legitimacy of things like this occurring is how - if it's true - it was kept under wraps. Time and time again we hear these workplace ho

From my experience, the courses look extensive, but they only go so in-depth. In taking the Intro to JS, the entire thing was like sitting through a student presentation. There didn't seem to be a transcript or a purpose and myself and the

This comment just made my day, thank you. Recently on a female subreddit, a woman wrote a huge rant about how if we want equality, we need to stop complaining about what we don't have. The idea being that complaining about it will just set

Subreddits not so much, but keywords, tags or topics that I could filter with would be immensely helpful.

Anyone who calls their son's teacher every day to inquire about their co-founder's child's behavior despite needing to kick their own son in the stomach to punish him needs a reality check. Reading this thing is horrific.

This post is a few days old, but I think it would have really limited the amount of criticism if you'd also noted that you work at DIY (a company that is promoting kids and teens to make all sorts of things - programming or otherwise) in th

No, it makes you look intelligent and human. Apologizing at the end of an article like this only shows that there are higher powers at play trying to shush you up.

Very cool. Maybe this is a silly question, but any reason you're using 2n and 2n+1 instead of just "even" and "odd"? Is it just to avoid targeting the first-of-type?

I'm always the odd man out when people praise design here. To me the UI is boring and cliché. Flat and minimal principals don't work in every circumstance, as evidenced by the Rdio desktop app and others like it where you end up glancing pa
