No bitcoin payment option? I'd take one right now! Get a free pay button there (https://goo.gl/QRtxwb)

*Edit, just noticed is some checkout system. Here is the payment http://ckte.me/wy7x3drq2ke PM me on twitter (@nvk) for the PIN with the link to PDF :)

nvk··on GitLab Mattermost, an open source on-premises Slack alternative
IRC is great, and I will stick with it. The issue is the rest of the org wants chat too, they can't even setup email. Slack is for them.
nvk··on Beginner's Guide to Blockchain Technology
In the next couple months, we are adding a bunch more features in the next few weeks :)

Stop using Windows, it's impossible to keep any level of sanity on a non POSIX system.
nvk··on GopherCon 2015 videos
Same here, weird hijack.

It's amazing to see a internet business so focussed thrive for this long. Keep up the great work!
nvk··on DuckDuckGo on CNBC: We’ve grown 600% since NSA surveillance news broke
DDG's search results have substantially improved since a few months ago. I now use it as my primary search engine.

Or a maker in general, I wonder if he touched typed his article on an iPad.
nvk··on OpenBazaar Is Entering a New Phase with Funding
An easy way for them to make money is to follow https://Discourse.org or https://ghost.org biz model.

These are Open Source, but you can pay them to host for you.

nvk··on Apple Boss Tim Cook Hits Out at Facebook and Google
Yes, but what about iOS?
nvk··on Apple Boss Tim Cook Hits Out at Facebook and Google
So does that mean I will be able to use PGP natively on my iOS Mail app soon?
nvk··on Rearchitecting GitHub Pages
It's time for github to start offering some basic hosting infrastructure of small projects, a light heroku, at least for JavaScript (which kind of already works).

I'd pay extra for that, I (we all) have a bunch of personal sites, landing pages, marketing sites and tiny side projects that'd love to not have to deal with hosting – I think they'd make a killing, but also think must be in the works.

nvk··on uTox – Free, Secure Instant Messaging
Seems really cool, anyone audited this project yet?
nvk··on PayPal penalised for 'deceptive' practices
Unrelated, but still a bit shady.

They still try to trick me into using back account instead of credit card, even though I've set credit card as default... I know CC processing costs them more, but It's so annoying.

nvk··on Matrix HiFi – Blind testing high end full equipment
Another good value company is PSB, they are made right here in Canada.
nvk··on Matrix HiFi – Blind testing high end full equipment
After spending a few bucks myself, I second this. The only thing i'd add is, invest in a good pair of speakers, that's where you'd get the best ROI.
nvk··on Twitter Needs New Leadership
2¢;

Twitter needs to learn how to let me, as a small company advertise at affordable prices. Facebook learned this, even though we all know bots click on "Boosted" posts. Give us, millions of small companies lots of amazing tools and charge for it. (Start with multi user support for the corporate handle, buy Buffer and get back to respecting developers)

nvk··on Oh, Canada: Surprise loser in US-EU trade deal
That would be the major countries from the Commonwealth of Nations (ex British Empire), which we already do for sports.

I think the bigger selling points are the shared similarities in Legal systems, Privacy laws, etc...

nvk··on Introducing the Dropbox bug bounty program
Looking forward to the day you offer a feature most call "Privacy". Client side encryption anytime soon?
nvk··on Shopify to raise $100M in Toronto, New York IPO
