benjamincharity··on Bye bye BetterSlack
As a daily user of ZenHub for over a year, I would strongly disagree that GitHub projects offers the same feature set. A Kanban view, yes.

I’ve used ZenHub+GitHub for about 9 months now for work and cannot recommend it enough.

benjamincharity··on Subversion vs. Git: Myths and Facts
> Except for the case of storing a lot of binary files, when Subversion repositories could be significantly smaller than Git ones (because Subversion’s xdelta delta compression algorithm works both for binary and text files).

Does this still hold true now that GitHub handles large binary files? https://github.com/blog/1986-announcing-git-large-file-stora...

benjamincharity··on Ask HN: Delicious is falling apart – alternatives?
pinboard.in hands down. I've tried so many different services but Pinboard is the best mix of minimalism and features. (Design isn't great but you can find style overrides on userstyles.org for Stylish)

Good API too.

Pinboard.in hands down. I've tried so many services but this one wins for me. Nice API too.
benjamincharity··on Show HN: Tired of doing coding interviews on Skype? We've built this
My biggest problem with coding interviews is not the actual communication tool (Skype/etc) but rather that the developer is pulled completely out of their environment. Take away my vim/snippets/custom key bindings/ide plugins/etc and then ask me to code? Feels like you're cutting off one of my arms right before you measure my performance.
