How technical or not you are has nothing to do with how much you care about the security of your email. LI is just hoping that they'll gain trust by being open about their process …

Right, but I think that most people can see right through the "look guys, we're cool! we care!" crap when it's this tacky and confusing. Quite frankly I thought they would be way m…

As a designer, this whole process is degrading, frustrating and reminiscent of the worst clients I've had throughout my career. I'm not sure if they are trying to make it look like…

Agreed. As a designer, I don't want to waste space with this for two form inputs, not including the CVV. On pages asking for your CC information, there's generally a lot more than …

I viewed the site on in Chrome on a rMBP and it looked and loaded just as poorly. There's no excuse for having basic fallbacks or a preloading mechanism.

When I first moved to Portland, I lived on the same block as a wonderful little local coffee shop that served Stumptown. Man I love Stumptown. I would go there all the time, someti…

To me it's more about who deserves the reward. $1.99 might not be a monetary tragedy, but it's giving someone a pat on the back that they may not deserve and asking for a refund fo…

Seriously. The first thing I do if I strongly like or dislike an article is click the name/avatar to get more information about the author to better understand their background. Me…

I love Chris Coyier for everything he's done for the front-end community, but between his CSS-Tricks layouts and Codepen.io, his aesthetic is much to be desired.

While I agree that it would have been nice, I don't think it was an oversight. In addition to the link posted on how they found people, it's also a bit of a double-edged sword as w…

Once you —, you never go back.

Having just had my boyfriend switch from 24/7 at-home freelance to working at his shop 7 days a week, this woman doesn't seem to understand the benefits she reaps from having someo…

What a pretentious article. > Do NOT Use Black on White > The only reason I don't visit Quora is bad typography. Yeah, I am that crazy! Meanwhile, OP's body copy is a heavy slab-se…

No matter what it was, did he learn from it? That's what matters in my book. If he was older, I might care more about the specifics of what he did since I think a lot of people get…

What a great idea; a lot less intimidating than doing it on your own or one-on-one. Interested in seeing how this plays out.

Studies show that it takes less than a second for visitors to determine - based on appearances - whether or not your site will bring them value. The Nielson Norman Group says that …

> For the purpose of feminizing men so that they are more passive and they fit better into your ideals of who people should be? So to fit men who want to be themselves into your li…

Female here. I'm not going to speak on behalf of everyone, but I use dick-sucking, cirlejerk and all sorts of various illustrative language to get the point across. We had this iss…

Some of the arguments here are that if you post something to the web, you can't be in control of where it ends up. While I agree with that sentiment on the whole, HN shouldn't be a…

Exactly why I'm leaving my company after ~3 years. There's absolutely no movement but lateral with a laughable pay raise, more responsibility in tasks that are unrelated to my skil…

I've found that if both users have their windows at full-size, it's fairly easy to read (at least, default Sublime Text 2 is readable) so long as the connection is good. As soon as…

This is super janky (sorry if anyone here made it), but there's an online version here -- http://pyz.socialgamer.net/game.jsp

I love the game in small doses, but it's very obvious there wasn't much diversification in the team that made it. Not because it would have curbed the offensiveness, but because af…

Thanks. I'd spent a good chunk of time on the initial post itself, so I opted to just see what the community did instead of responding to it. Thankfully, it was downvoted quickly a…
