Mad props to you brother. Maybe your next venture is business education?

Ah. I dig this. Wish I had more upvotes!

Since when did they care about National Security Letters?

If you have really lost hope, you are worthless to America.

In this country we fight. Our rhetoric is one of hard-fought victory. Not capitulation.

Which RSS reader do you use?

The DNC is an organization that's rotten from the inside out. Don't forget about Wasserman being the fall man for all of their shenanigans.

I think the idea is that his stance is not introducing new federal laws.

It probably could have been worded plainly instead of adding a conditional. Federal laws should be considered in their own right, not in comparison towards other federal laws.

That's a great idea! It sounds kinda wonky like AirBnb when they pitched it to YCominbator but... it'd be pretty cool if you could execute on the idea!

I think it depends what kinda code you write. Also, what kinda management structure you find yourself in.

Sounds like you're writing code with hard specs (enterprise company?) where you just feel like a cog in this vast code outputting machine. In that case, it's totally natural to feel like you're dying inside. That's natural. We're creative beings, and you either need to find a different job or calibrate other dimensions of your life to meet that need (physical fitness, start a family, serious hobbies, be part of a community).

"You're as cold ice! You're willing to sacrifice our LOVE!"

Yeap. This right here.

He was more than an investor. He believed in the computer graphics work that they were doing and became the sole owner of Pixar when they were on the brink of disbanding. He bought the company outright and moved them from the eastcoast to the westcoast. That's huge. Nobody does that as an investor. You have to really believe in that on a core, personal level to do that.

Ok. Obama. Thanks as always.

Don't use email. Just use end-to-end encryptions?!

I may be slightly churlish and glib.

One can always hope, my friend.

I believe you're referring to this: https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/31077

Podesta is on record saying that "we need to clean this up" when this discrepancy surfaced.

Nah. He'd let her stay probably. Obama would show up on Saturday Night Live with Hillary and do something quirky. Boom. Nothing but net!

Are you dizzy from all of the spinning?

When you reference a past case against new evidence that's usually called re-opening a case.

When you click on the logo the "slide down" animation feels very web-y. The rest of app is really nice though. Everything feels really slick for a HTML/JS app. The keyboard show animation could a little work, but I know that's not easy to do.

Did you make this with Ionic? Pretty smooth UX

I'm using it too and works nicely. It's the only ReactJS boilerplate that's officially sanctioned by Facebook right now.

Because it causes burnout. You can't write open-source software as your primary day job well. There's too much risk.

You can, however, do it as a function of your work for your employer. Almost all of today's viable FOSS started like this, because it provides the financial security and moral support you need to bring a FOSS to maturity.

They have a "foundation" supporting their products. Before the foundation was conceived, it was started as a side project with no strings attached.

Exactly. It's really having your cake and eating it too.

They need to choose between: 1) If you're gonna raise money, then release all your work for free. No "premium" icons. 2) If you're gonna have a freemium-premium model, then don't have a fundraiser and get others to underwrite your risks.

The only ROI you are entitled to when open-sourcing a project is advertising. It doesn't entitle you to ask for a handout.

Maybe they should treat it as a side project, and not as a job. When people treat open source projects as their day job everybody loses.

If it was just for marketing, then they should do marketing not fundraising.

Why are they running a Kickstarter if they actually have a "PRO" business model thing going? Shouldn't they just focus on building their business, instead of raising money? The video is cool-hip-quirky but... I don't get why they need to stick out their hands and ask for a handout here.

Biblical Christianity is straight-up iconoclastic. Give that a try.
