Huh interesting.. thanks for sharing about bamboohr

Hey all, we previously worked at large tech companies where we had in-house org charts that the company had built, and they were extremely useful. Simple UIs, fast, relevant up-to-date info. We would use them multiple times a day to quickly lookup which team a teammate is in, who their manager might be and their peers.

We really wanted to replicate this experience somehow and make the experience of searching teammates within a company good for every company out there. We started by looking into Slack since we saw a good amount of companies using Slack for their day to day communication channel. We've started off by building an org chat where you can lookup teammates directly within Slack.

Some tidbits of what we have: - You can look up your teammates, their managers and their reports directly within Slack (no going to a separate website, etc.) - You can manage / edit your org chart directly within Slack as well - Employee info is pulled directly from Slack profiles so no initial effort filing up your employee info - We also support importing data from other tools such as Google Workplace, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Azure Active Directory, and more as needed.

Would be great to get some feedback from folks here.

I never understood why people thought self driving cars would lift Uber out of their miseries. Even if they do make it more profitable (although it's not as trivial as you mention), they would also be in a much more competitive landscape compared to the duopoly situation they have now. The costs might go down, but it doesn't mean they would be able to maintain their market share.

$4B and $3B is for the whole years of 2017 and 2018. $1.3B is just for this quarter.

> It's pretty easy for people who care to "turn off read receipts" by disabling images or blocking it through proxy/vpn/whatever.

Setting aside the difficulty, being pressured to disable a generic feature (image loading) for a degenerate use case of that feature (user tracking) is annoying.

not sure if you're being sarcastic.. but thanks if not! let me know if you have any feedback :D

i personally like it, it's cleaner and there's more whitespace that helps with readability.

started cutting some podcasts I'm following, and this one was pretty interesting..

Yep, my focus was building it for SaaS services. It just so happened to be that the method of least resistance for something to get rolling, in my mind, was to do it via a browser extension.

At that point, it seemed more difficult to filter out websites that wouldn't fit into this category, hence the question: why not everything?

Your points on passion is valid though. Maybe folks just don't care enough about the web. I do think they do care about the services provided on the web though.
