Yeah, I'd like to have sympathy for the OP because the USCBP and DHS can be annoying to deal with but you have to know what to say before going in there. He brought it upon himself…

Why? Flickr is one of last Yahoo products people I know sometimes still use. Facebook does a poor job at retaining high res pictures, few non-photographer friends use 500px, G+ doe…

I'm actually confused. I remember Kickstarter specifically saying that they didn't fund startups back when I applied to them.

"I'm not going to side with design over engineering" It shouldn't be one or the other, it should work in unison. Design includes aesthetics and user interaction. Airbnb wouldn't su…

I don't think that includes consultants that helped the design, user experience, and architecture. Since they went with a pretty well known interactive agency, it probably cost the…

Seriously. I'm all for being compliant for most users, but accommodating for users who actively gimp their browser is a little ridiculous when they probably represent less than 5% …

Pretty much. And if one is loyal to consumer products that have much more of a everyday influence but support that bill... well then it gets even harder. Looking at this list, I wo…
