I'm glad they're flatly acknowledging the wrong doing on what compromised the majority of Julie's complaint. As to her assertions that an engineer was keeping her out of the code if she wouldn't sleep with him, I've

Accused of beating GF? I don't know. Depends on whether I believed it and other factors. Plead guilty + police say he's on tape doing it worse than he plead to? Fired. Every time. Political donations would never have an effect on

Yeah my comment isn't clear on that at all, thanks for the clarification.

Are you saying CEOs and employees are the same? I assume you'll get a lot of blowback for other reasons for this comment, but just logically - what are you talking about? As a side note: in Eich's case, he didn't "deserv

Maybe your startup should be a server farm that uses people's servers they're just not using, like Airbnb for hosting. Only half kidding....

If you don't like drinking, why bring up the money? It's an irrelevant point, unless you're saying "I like drinking, but I like pens more so I choose to spend my money on pens" at which point I say "I respect t

I might use this comment to respond to every single person who uses the cost of alcohol as a reason not to drink saying "there are so many other things I'd rather buy.." LIKE WHAT? A PEN? That's a pen. You can never conv

I think Code Babes is tacky and gross, but I also don't get the fuss. Is it done by someone somehow prominent? Is it funded? There's a bunch of tacky, gross, sexist stuff on the internet - actually a lot of it that even looks like

One solution is to use an aggregator like NudgeYourself.com - they do a great job taking any trackers you use and aggregating the data. So you can have Fitbit and Runkeeper and they'll stay automatically in sync.

I was so pumped to be a part of this, and the new interface they're launching soon is really a step forward in terms of real, implementable skills. Love these guys!

Oh totally! And I hope it was ultra-clear - I wasn't asking because I ASSUME they wanted something in return, but rather because that's a proposition I've never heard before. They're giving them $50k not $50k in tee-spri

by tomasien 13y ago
Agreed it's amazing - are they getting anything in return? I'm not asking this in a skeptical way, I just mean do the non-profits run tee-springs or are they just donating money? Either way, bravo!

Would love to get know (knoxpayments.com) as a payment option on the weebly ecommerce platform. Anyway we can do that, do we need to build a plugin?

I use Tinder and have met a ton of really amazing people through it, including a girl who is now my best friend's long term girl friend. I don't use it to date though purely because if I venture into that realm, the temptation to

This is an important question. You did nothing wrong, they'd like to hire you, but there was just something about you that made them hesitate. And because they have a ton of candidates for very few jobs, that hesitation means moving on

“We were the first people to work on Stripe, and chronologically that’s interesting but so much of the great work that we do now, we’re a piece of it but we’re not the most important piece of it,” This is amazing. A huge part of my job righ

This is great! I'm building our docs using Aglio right now and it's great - this seems similar but with some interesting differences. Really good to see more options out there!

Oh my god this is excellent. For all the talk about how Evan got lucky, how Snapchat is trash, etc. - this dude understands human behavior. Understands it like Zuck understood what people really want to see on the internet, like Biz/Ev

I understand why Mint stores these usernames and passwords, but this is one of the biggest reasons that we do not at Knox Payments. I remember explaining to investors that yes SSL is safe to transfer the information and yes we could do an e

IE8 thing is bad because you'll never find it. It should be commented out as an example.

Right? Man I feel like I'm missing something huge here if somehow reset.css and HTML5 Boilerplate are creating technical debt for me. I think I've launched at least 10 projects using it and I've never once had to say "oh

Are you suggesting that using HTML5 Boilerplate is a bad idea? Because no, no it isn't. That is an insane assertion. The number of weird idiosyncrasies or browser specific problems that WILL come up with any web app that I've fixe

At first I thought you meant that the US Government would just pay anyone to quit their job AND I LOVED IT! I still think it's a good idea, and I know everyone probably thinks that first idea is stupid, but I think it's great. Get

Open Source, not non-profits. I'd have to think about the non-profit thing, but Open Source is a very particular thing - you're asking the public to work for you for FREE. People at Mozilla make good money, non-profit just means t

Dropping Mozilla because Eich is anti-gay-marriage made sense to me because Mozilla is the beacon of open source. Mozilla belongs to us in a very personal way, many of us have contributed code to Firefox personally. But Condi Rice joining a

Pretty risky but I like it - if smart-watches are actually something people want, they should replace phones for people who want them at least to some extent. If they're just for gadget people, then they're not the big-deal that w

True, but shouldn't it ALSO be an app? Maybe in the works, I dunno.

It's not actually big news, is what I would say. Square is prominent to us because we know how it's growing, but it doesn't represent some insane amount of volume and this is only Square Market. It doesn't really change
