   This is really good because of how basic it is. What's not so good is if you are a genre expert it doesn't do too deep of a dive. For instance I love the roots artist Guy Clark but I know every artist that is recommended ( http:&#

   HN can be like FB - highlight reels that people sometimes compare to the full view of what they are experiencing. There are also posts about failure but I'd say they are a bit less common than the ones about success.

   Sure. The most obvious one is that you can't filter by user (or at least it wasn't readily apparent that you could). I also think the keyboard shortcuts on Asana are faster and more intuitive. Don't get me wrong - I love Trel

   I find Trello very tough to use with a team but great for keeping track of individual process. Asana (while very different) seems to work better with our team of 5. I was hoping Trello Gold would have offered the things that keep us from us

   Wouldn't pricing a new iPhone (regardless of version) too low have a negative effect on the perceived value? If the iPhone 5C had the same core components as the 5S I would get it instead because the plastic is probably more durable an

    You misunderstand. I mean giving money back to people that paid more than $695 is a terrible idea from a fundraising perspective. It does makes sense however since the backlash could be severe.

    Giving money back seems like a terrible idea from a fundraising perspective (though personally I'd be irked if I had paid over $700 and they didn't refund me). Either way, it's not a great position to be in. edit: please don&

    True, I've never seen a campaign change rewards so much and so often but people have been very creative with rewards tiers - usually to their benefit. I'd be surprised if even half of the people that pledged early on are able to k

    I backed the project at $600. Here are some thoughts: 1. It's getting wishy-washy. I don't know any campaigns that have changed around rewards this much (both pricing and what you get) and for many people that may be a turn off. W

    Dharmesh had mentioned it really wasn't that big of a difference either way. Personally I have no idea outside of a short exchange with him about it.

    Amanda Palmer got similar flack for using some of the money raised to pay off personal debts but at least she fulfilled all of her backer's rewards.

    While the stunt is illegal (in many ways) and there was a likelihood of getting into serious trouble I'd say the "big fuckin' deal" is bragging about it with the plan to get lots of attention on HN. That's even mor
