    Ask HN: Value of a custom slash-menu service for Slack?

    I built a customizable, context-sensitive menu module in another Slack project, and I'm thinking of spinning it out into a separate app. Essentially, it would let any team set up a…

    Så morsomt! Thanks for posting - this was a wonderful bit of distraction. I love Everything is Calm - probably because I'm a bad person. :-D

    We've been looking for a better way to give and get feedback on our teams (I've been yelled at once too often for giving a candid "I'm not sure that's a good idea" to a manager). W…

    No indication of this on the YC page, twitter, or FB. Likely trolling, but we'll know for sure tonight. EDIT: Definitely trolling. See katm's (I'm guessing Kat Manalac's) post abov…

    It depends. I trust my immediate supervisor (from experience), so I told her about my startup side project a month ago. I don't want to leave her short-handed, so I wanted her to h…
