As an American, I keep getting baffeled how opinions like GH's in this are so prevalent on the internet but rarely seem to occur in the real world. Please don't judge us on the acts of a few. Gender equality in IT is a realistic i

"$100/hr for remote work is not a lot of money." Yes it is. The average minimum wage in the US is $7.25. 8 hours work is less than $60, or about 40 minutes of what you call not a lot of money.

Windows, at work. I've used Ubuntu part time since about summer of 2011, full time by probably about the beginning of 2012. Ironically, I also hate using an office suite that is not MS Office 2003, including MS and non-MS products.

Nathan, thanks for telling your story! I'd like to hear what your take is on something I thought when reading this article. One factor in ConvertKit's success is that RSS is still sort of broken. My thinking is that a big benefit

Others have responded but I'll throw in another way to look at it. They aren't subscribing to an email list per se, the are signing up to get reminders when a content provider--that they are already interested in viewing the conte

Also, r/politics is just basically an anti-Trump subreddit now. Long also, it was a neutral political news reporting sub with a policy for not editorializing the titles of submissions. Bias, no matter which side of the aisle it strays

So what? With its insanely high rent and notoriously overworked populous, isn't SF a perfect place for people that don't have kids? There are millions of other places in the U.S. that are extremely kid friendly. Having one or two

I am actually a fan of sub $100 bikes but I can also mess and tinker with them. I think here's a big part of the difference: "It’s a belt driven automatic 2 speed integrated into the rear hub. The belt drive eliminates need for c

The article says they are recyclable but most localities don't do them, they have to be taken to the grocery store & deposited with bags. Why would you target every small business with this expense?
