I can see this in a commercial setting, but any family/household that wants to drop $600+ dollars on a folding appliance, may be better served with a $30+ / week maid, who also does the folding. How does one justify $600+ on savin

This isn't satire? I thought I'd come to the comments to see comments about it. It's a real potential product? The WSJ reviews like "I'm going to save up for the FoldiMate! That's what I am waiting for." i

Unfortunate. Suggestions for "easy" reading of the like for this subject matter? Meaning, the "technical matters into plain english" outside of the actual Journal article?

The actual title is "Companies! Don’t discriminate Front-end Developers!", which changes the headline meaning in my opinion[1]. As it is, "Companies Don’t Discriminate Front-End Developers", sounds like the crux of the M

It's interesting to me how alcohol-centric our(US. But is it any diferent in a developed country?) culture is. I can take a breather with my entire team to a beer bar, brats and beer, but I can't go to some "bar" and tak

You would be surprised at how difficult it is in any company (large or small) to make a change on culture. That is completely driven top-down, and normally the "spiral" you speak of is more inline with a individual contributor (no

Yup, they do "big" integration well. The actual system is inferior UI wise (personal opinion) compared to DropBox. Sync is worse then DropBox [edit: meant, better then] Google Drive (I find Drive worse then DropBox). As far as rel
