Gotta love that marketing doublespeak, trying to make it sound like it's for the customer rather than their bottom line.

Github is a large bloated organization that's slow to move, more news at 6.

I don't see how it should shock anyone that its taken Github 29 days to respond. Github can't move at the speed of say, an open source project with a hand full of contributors. They're a company of 100s of people. And the larger an organization is, the harder it gets to make a decision about anything, because more people have to agree. In this case, they have to agree about how to respond to open criticism while saving PR face, which is a difficult task.

I'm fairly confident that the stink this whole Dear Github thing has raised will result in positive changes of some kind, but let's be real, Github is still just a corporation that faces a lot of the same problems other corporations face. They're probably scrambling to get a whole bunch of people to agree on what it is they should do.

Udemy's getting absolutely slammed today on HN. I wonder if they're paying attention.

Bring this shit to Toronto and I'll do it on the weekends for extra dosh, no problem.

Really cool idea, but more importantly, why do some people call a one-way mirror a two-way mirror? Its only a mirror on one size.

I guess the real trick is to build your own business, but it keep it small enough that you don't end up exactly in the same place, but with yourself at the head of it.

Find yourself a tiny niche, fill a need for just enough people that you can keep yourself gainfully employed doing something you care about, and not have to worry about hiring other people to work under you and all the other shit that comes with building a company. Stay small and lean. You won't get Facebook rich, but maybe you'll be happy.

Very constructive.

Awesome idea, very creative. I'd love to see you keep working on this.

Android version when? ;)

The URL is annoyingly similar to https://crates.io/

Dat landing page tho

Neat little project. I have a similar small theming-related side project at http://haunter.io/

I'll shoot you a PR with my Slack theme.

Yeah, I thought Magic was pretty cool too.

I was just about to comment on the login wall. You should consider at least including a tour, so people can see what this site actually is before signing up.

Its a neat idea, I'd love to try it. Unfortunately I'm Canadian, so I guess I'll have to wait for it to grow a bit first.

Surprise of the century, Peter Molyneux doesn't deliver on his promises. Still waiting for that acorn to grow into a mighty oak Molyneux, you silly bastard.

+1, looks much nicer :)

Honestly, my biggest issue with this landing page is the dummy text in the screenshots. Its nitpicking for sure, but it would look nicer if you took the time to give the projects realistic names in the screenshots and whatnot. Also that Sign In button needs another 5-10px of margin at the top.

Otherwise its a very nice landing page in my opinion.

Sunshine was a criminally under appreciated movie.

BNOTIONS seems cool, I'll hound them for a while. Thanks.
