I have no problem at all with Snapchat's UI and can't understand why "old" people complain about it so much. did I know how to do everything at first? no, but it was easy, just swipe left/right/up/down and tap a few places. just because it doesn't follow the conventional ui/ux paradigm doesn't make it confusing or hard, just different (and these days, not that different, since a lot of other apps are copying snap's gestures)
the issue I do have with snapchat is that I'd like to see more interesting snaps and people to follow (who are not my friends) and the app doesn't help me with that. I'm basically limited to a few people who don't snap that much and I hardly use the chat function. I think this is where instagram one ups snapchat (the fact that ig's main content isn't ephemeral kinda helps).
I'm waiting to see what Snap comes up with (they have to come up with something, otherwise they'll be doomed).
And now they're Alphabet, so the brand thing should've been ok.
and it seems to be buggy with no webgl? using chromium under linux I get "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getExtension' of null"
and Mexico's a lot easier to go to than Canada (which now also has an ESTA like system)
also I would guess that people in Tijuana are pretty good with their English
But with people with a track record of actually knowing and having done good products.
And, as I've described in a blog post I did about Pocket, the recommendation system they created fails in one huge aspect: it is recommending me things that I've seen elsewhere but just decided not to pocket...
As a concerned user, I even wrote this a few months ago http://constantbetasoftware.com/2016/09/02/pocket.html
How can I apply?
I'm assuming he was referring to
> My last startup was Elto, a marketplace to connect small business owners to freelance web designers. Elto was acquired by GoDaddy in 2015.
I guess that's a hidden advantage of writing a few books, hem? You're able to send them a polished application :)
> Scoop: Balaji Srinivasan met w/Trump, but the VC is not up for FDA slot, source close to transition tells me.
What?

Clicking the link to the NYTimes article

English as a second language person here, but is it just me or the Bloomberg subtitle does not reflect at all what the NYT title is saying?
Well, in Google employees. Which belong to that 1% of the 1% ... etc (and not to mention that many Googlers did not go to school in the US)
Sublime for everything else because it's lightweight and no frills

Why were they not so active about this phenomenon during elections? I doubt they were unaware of it since even I saw many tweets that were obviously fake
