Love this idea, very useful.
Couple little bugs/notes I noticed: The position titles are appearing twice, and my google seems to think this page is written in Slovak? And keeps offering to translate it...
Thanks for creating!

This raises some really good points! Though I think there is something to be said for a language that is so easy for newcomers to learn and see results.
I agree, it seems to me most people would only want to use one or a small selection of these, so it would be much more useful to have the ability to easily grab a hamburger's code individually.
How is it that "city officials acknowledge that New Orleans simply does not have the resources to enforce this rule — given the 2,400 to 4,000 short-term rental listings on various services", but they had the resources to find those numbers?
I think this article leaves out a major question of whether or not people feel like being social. Some people like talking to people when they have a problem or question, some people have a strong resistance to explaining their problem on the spot to a stranger.
Perhaps this could serve as a helpful middle-man and offer a compromise to those who feel strongly either way.
I agree with this. The company has many other ways of expressing their beliefs, but calling the code specifically a form of speech feels like a stretch. Overall I am on Apple's side of this. But while this article makes an interesting argument, I just don't think I buy it.
Completely agree! Where's the data? How many people were surveyed? These statements are too strong to evaluate without the proper context.
Very informative, thanks for the summary!
Did anyone else open this in chrome and get an error that the plugin wasn't supported?
Soooo cool! This is clearly the way of the future.
Why does the percentage of dropouts from an online class matter? Do the issues raised in this article really need to be addressed? There are still so many people benefiting from successfully completing these courses, and learning new information. Do the people who don't, or who try and then give up, really affect the value of the opportunity online education brings?
I agree! It's always disappointing when an invitation to contest a controversial statement outweighs the information they were actually trying to relay. Would love to seem more comments and discussion on clever applications of some of these tools.
I agree, I think this has been happening for several years now. Pop culture fascination with AI has come and gone in waves and I don't believe this wave signals any significant change in the imminence of AI. Seems RS is just grasping for another eye-grabbing story as usual.
I second that answers to these types of questions would be very helpful! The more context the better.
I think this is a really valid point. Does anyone know if Zynga has dedicated any resources to being ready to jump in on the VR scene once it hits?
I thought they were moving to San Mateo... http://www.bizjournals.com/sanjose/news/2015/08/17/exclusive...
Totally agree! It seems like many of the other comments here make similar points.
I'm surprised there hasn't been more of an emphasis on creating better dashboard. One of the biggest hang-ups I experience as a user is it's too difficult to find and keep windows open for every team that I'm on that has it's own slack address. If I could sign in once and see all of the teams I'm on in one place I would be much more inclined to keep a slack tab open in my browser all the time.
You point out one of my HUGEST frustrations, "either an app takes EVERYTHING they ask for, and noone tells you how exactly they used those capabilities (no api log, no nothing), or you can't use the app". I hate this aspect of OAuth and am so desperate for a simple solution. But I sincerely doubt one is coming-- at least not for a while...
Love the idea of this app! I agree there is a lot of value in the meditation behind just writing and leaving some of the critical thinking/content editing for later. One thought though: Perhaps there could be an option to include a spellcheck/type-o error counter to encourage more thoughtful and deliberate writing, especially with auto-correct taking over everywhere. I find it quite easy to continue moving my fingers mindlessly, but if this tool could be used as a way to be even just a little more careful about which keys your fingers are hitting it's applications could go a long way.
Couldn't agree more with so many of the views expressed in this. I felt the same way after participating in the LinkedIn DevelopHer Hackathon last August. I came home and was so physically ill from sleep deprivation, eating nothing but oreos, drinking soda for the caffeine, etc.. that I was out for another 2 days. I don't know if I've ever felt as sick as I did after that hackathon, and it was all elective abuse to my body.
Agreed.
Great synopsis of the lean startup method. Would have loved to also hear about any cons encountered.
