Sad to see this shut down, I've enjoyed reading it over the years. Now there is no easy way to get blog posts from all the people at Basecamp. Subscribing to each employee's blog seems a bit tedious and annoying to maintain over t

The Android turbolinks version 1 adapter is now deprecated but a version 2 is meant to be coming soon. I believe it's going to come out after Basecamp's new product named Hey is released shortly.

I thought that was the joke until I read the comments here and realised there was a full article and Medium actually blocks articles that way now.

That's what I have, a very small helper library that contains 5 or 6 functions that I use frequently like .closest(), .hideAll(), .showAll() etc. My application doesn't use much JS so this seems reasonable to me instead of includi

The idea is to still eat healthy food on both days but one day you just eat less. So one day you might only have dinner and the next day you will have 3 or 4 meals all of which are still made up of healthy foods.

Are there any plans to add video calls or screen sharing as a feature? Having those work cross platform would be a huge advantage over other existing messaging applications.

I use Anki almost every day (for language learning) and from a user interface it is a terrible piece of software. It is inconsistent and not at all intuitive, even simple tasks usually require looking up documentation or tutorials. That bei

This looks like an interesting idea but I get the feeling there isn't a business behind it yet and they are just seeing if people are interested at this stage. In my opinion this would be great a service if they provided online backups as w
