    This might be a dumb question: are there shells that have a HTML-based front and passes commands into the background? Seems like something like that would be far more flexible than…

    A reminder that the imbalance of 3px may be intentional: It means that the post is closer to the comments are closer than to the user, and it pulls your eye more naturally to the c…

    My guess would be that Twitter has had plans to offer the same functionality.

    I can't really say – I joined back in August and the project was already underway.

    Hi, designer here. Sorry about that, you haven't actually been subscribed to a newsletter - you've been put on the waiting list, but we haven't updated the message in the confirmat…

    Say more about this, please? Is it a single text box?

    Nothing wrong with working hard. But do it for yourself. Don't do it because a VC tells you to. Don't do it because the owner of a publication that thrives off of startup news tell…

    I also think you're underestimating the usefulness of a tablet form factor when physicians are sharing information with their patients. Harder to do that with a laptop.
